Im a little **** about color matching things, thats why I had to buy Pewter, the motor, calipers wheels all match the paint, I too would have bought black if they matched like the classic and ultra does, black motor,wheels and calipers.

All Screaming Eagle models come with silver motors. No one complains about them. Everyone has black motors. Go with something different.

I think I remember the CVO Dyna having a black motor. Just thought I'd point that out.

I really prefer the black motor, but the RG fits me very well. I have also discovered that the silver motor doesn't bother me at speeds above 3mph.......[sm=escape.gif]

Bryan - With your eye for cool accessories, I would love to see what you could do with a Road Glide. For the benefit of the forum, I think you should add one to the stable.

I'd like to turn this one into a Road/Street Glide...the more I see the RG & silver motor, the more I like it!

I like em too! Never thought I'd say that, but they are very sexy motorcycles done up right! I'm not ready to swap my SG for one, but I will definitely give them more than a passing glance next purchase. The only thing I still don't like however is the dual headlights.
