YUP. My first FLTRI was Vivid Black with the black engine. I might be wrong but I think it was a '98 model..........bought it before it hit the floor.

Since I became a "Senior Rider" on the forum, I figured I'd try to look the part...........but I figured it was time for a "face lift"! Change is good!
