When we got this copper bronze or whatever they call it , sweetie had her eye on a plain black Ultra , as well ..
It isnt an issue but I like two tone a bit better than a solid color , but that depends on the bike too .. Some look better with a solid color , some look better two tone , but it's still what you like , not what anyone else likes ..
A dealed once told me, that black bikes are easier to sell used. He thought that every one has a first color choice and black is always an acceptable 2nd.
Wife wants black for the 09 UC we just ordered but she caved and let me order th Crimson Red!
Crimson Red is my favorite and if someone wanted to trade a red set of tins for these fancy blue one's I would jump on it. It's strickly personal and black would be a good 2nd choice. You gotta be happy with your ride.

Vivid black is the funniest color. Why you ask?? Have you ever seen a bunch of guys just coming out of meeting and walking around aimlessly in the parking lot trying to figure out WHICH vivid black bike is theirs? Its halirious!! Black Pearl is the color, it has the bad azz look but can also look classy when the sun hits it. Now thats style !!!!!
