I never thought I'd like a 'brown' scooter....I was wrong!

I really wanna see that color on a softtail deluxe in two tone with cream white!

I've been shopping softtail deluxes, but I'm waiting now for Willie G to figure out he needs to make one for me in rootbeer and cream.

Buddy of mine had a root beer colored 96 wide glide. I liked it. In the sun the color sure sparkles. I don't get to a dealer very often and can't wait to see one.

I was waiting on a black Road King until I saw a new root beer Fat Boy sitting in the sun. Cancelled that order and put my name on the root beer RK Classic that was in the warehouse. If you don't like any metal flake, it ain't for you. If you like subtle metal flake, then yeah, it's cool!

+1

first saw this color and left the dealer thinking "what a putric color" minutes later i was back in there asking the salesman to push her into the sun....it was all over.

..ever see the finance guys face when you sign the application push it across the desk and they read laid-off/unemployed! I am living penny to penny but couldnt take it anymore. So, with all due respect, please stop posting pics and even talking about it untill march 20 till i can look at my own in my garage.

The Root beer doesn't have the huge metal flake the Black Ice/Blue Ice has, it is more suttle. I'm curious as to the Big purple Flake will look like in a month or so.
