Hadn't you heard? HD changed the "fast color" for 2009 and it's red Hot Sunglo now!

Had been seeing the new wheels on the Electra Glides with the thin whitewalls and liked them but hadn't seen them on the blackwalls until yesterday at a dealer and they were on a Road Glide with blackwalls and WOW they look even better IMO with the blackwall tires.

So Sparky your bike looks a little lower than stock in the rear or is it just the angle of the photos?

Congrats!!! I just picked up a 2007 Roadglide in Black Pearl on Saturday and am loving it. I was torn between the used Roadglide or a new 2008 Ultra. Now I know I made the right decision in picking the Roadglide.

Dude, nice bike! Like the color too. How do you like the screaming eagle pipes? Do they have a pretty good sound? I'm looking for something that's not too loud but better than stock.
