Skydoc - come on, those flat colors are so boring. Man, you should see the flake in that paint. Next thing I am adding is a ton of chrome...
To each his own.

The important vote was Momma - and she LOVES it.....


I tried to get the black ice paint. No luck Harley wont let that out! That color is awesome.

Yeah, that color looks like it goes well with a nice glass of wine spritzer.

Just kiddin.

Enjoy the new ride. If I rode solo and had the time, an SG would be tempting.

[quote=Lowridin packer;4275498]A car hit me October 23. I am fine, minor injuries. The bike was another story and was totaled. I got a nice insurance check and bought my dream bike.

Same thing happened to me... Nov 10th... Taken out by a hit n run driver on the freeway. Major hit but I pretty much walked away with minor road rash. I was lucky. Just got the insurance check a few weeks ago and got the new '09 Road King. Very happy with the bike and glad to ride another day!

Congrats to you on your new machine - ride safe and enjoy...

Nice scoot man! Not really a fan of blue but that really looks nice! As for the "black is boring" comment, the color really stands out if done right and you don't mind cleaning it after every ride. Had 3 of 'em, I know

Pictures don't do that color justice, really awesome in person! Congrats! But I can't agree with the "black is boring" comment.

I haven't seen a two tone Street Glide yet. I'm glad you are happy with yours.
