Well on the Website, I did not like it, but with leo's pics, I think I do like the color. Maybe I am getting tired of vivid black.

cbears,

I agree with you and think the letters are too small.

Even worse to me is that they go uphill. Looks like an unbalanced shaking hand put the sticker on!! I went and looked at my tank and the letters go almost straight across.

Check out the below photo.

It is exactly the bike (even the color and 2-1) I wanted when I bought my SG last year. Its the only bike that makes me want a 2010 this year.

If I remember correctly, there is a Scarlet Red "Pearl" offered on the 2010 CVO Ultra Classic. I would like to see that color and compare the two.

i painted a 57 chevy several years ago, stock red/orange, and all the lights in the booth were flourescent.. they tend to make the red-orange appear toward the rose or pink side. get it out in the sunlight or in incandescent light and the orange shows back up. that's just an observation from my experiences anyway.

I think the color is ok, but I the rear looks a little goofy with just turn signals just sitting there. Nevermind looking at it from a safety aspect.

Yup, it is what it always has been. Ya love 'em or you hate 'em.

Must be hard for MOCO to decide what to build when popular opinion is cut down the middle.
