Street Glide Question?
Here is mine in Black Pearl. Gives you an idea how it looks in the sunlight.
Here is a thought. Since you aren't taking delivery until the spring why not go for one of the custom colors and be a little different.

It has to do with the spoke wheel has a tube. The cast does not so if your away from home and pickup a nail you can easily repair this and be on your way vs having to take the rim and tire off and replace a tube.
I do like the spoke but this is a touring bike and things always happen when your far from home and my luck is not the greatest so I will stay with cast rims.

Here is a few pics of a Black Pearl SG
And these are the best pics I have showing the color, and it still does not do the color justice.

Did you know that you can go to the official Harley web site and using their "Customizer" you can view any color they have for 2009 on the bike of your choice. It is a real neat feature if you are having trouble deciding what to order. You can also add custom parts to the "Customizer" to see what it looks like on the bike.

I like black and went in to buy a black bike. There was a pewter pearl SG on the floor that almost changed my mind, though. It is a beautiful color and just cries out for a "blackout" treatment, IMHO.
