The Black bike guys found out that White is really the fastest and whined to the MoCo so they limited the availability.

I have a 08 white gold pearl ultra classic. I get lots of compliments on it, especially with the color matched inner fairing and brushed aluminium gauges. To the person that said white was easy to clean, you obviously haven't had to clean the mirage of colorful bugs off of one yet.LMAO
