I have a black 04 RKC and I wouldn't change the color for anything except maybe black pearl. I think I'd pay the three hundred!

I was going to get the black pearl, but i couldnt find one. My dealer got a Somkey Gold in so I looked at it.
Well Now I own the smoky gold

Also the color can be changed later, but I am getting soooo many compliments on this color
all I am going to do now is paint some ghost flames on it and call it good.

Black is beautiful. Black pearl is very classy. But why care what I think? It's going to be your bike - do what makes YOU happy.
