EGS in Denim Black
Has anyone seen one of these yet? I am curious as to how that color looks on a Toruing Bike. To me it looks great on a Night Train, but that ride has a different personality. I am leaning towards the blue so far. Last time I got a new bike, it was a black Fat Boy. I like the solid black, but when I showed up at the house, my wife said "couldn't you have gotten a more interesting color".

Oh, yeah. They have one at the local dealer with a Klockwerks shield on it. Sick!
I want that bike (with all the options) and a 103 kit. Black cylinders would look super cool on that bike. Flat black exhaust, black levers. Oh, man I'm salivating...
In fact, I'd rather have a Standard with a 103 over a Street Glide. There are far to many Street Glides around here...
Only a couple of months until my Audi lease is up and I can take on the HD payment!

My new 09 EGS is Denim Black and I love it! The color is cool, plus, the tank logos are painted on, not decals.
When I brought it home I had every intention of "blacking it out". Now I'm not so sure, because the chrome is a cool contrast to the flat paint. But I agree with you about the black jugs. Kinda gives it that old shovel head look. I did that on my 07 EGS and it looked great.

I am blacking out my 99 RK with flat black and you are correct the little bit of chrome makes it stand out cool. Now i am having a guy airbrush on ****** wire pin striping and also airbrush on the POW/MIA and KIA/WIA emblems on my Bags. So far so good the flat paint does look cool.
