Default Dealer dont know

I went to HD website looking at 2011 Streetglide, It shows a black one with what looks like black on black stripes. Is that the standard way it comes in black? Dealer said he never saw one come in that way.
Thanks Retro 08

I looked at SG's for about three months and 5 dealerships, never saw one like that.

you talking about a Streetglide or Road Glide Custom? the RGC has grey pinstripping while the SG has none.

Never saw one like that. The only black ones are Vivid Black or Black Denim (not counting the limited two-tones).

If you are talking about THIS ONE, it is plain vivid black. It looks like black stripes on the side cover and saddlebag but that is the indentations and lighting in the picture.
