Guy who works at my local dealer has one. I kinda like it.

But, for '07, I think I got the best color combo! Suede Blue & black woulda been my 2nd cherce for '07.

Never really thought about the color, doesn't look too bad to me. At least it is not white.

my wife bought a suede blue pearl road king in 07. she loved that color, was disappointed that she couldn't get her road glide custom in the same.

guess that helps prove your point, 'No guy ever chose this color....'

I was looking at a 2011 King the other day in a little different color blue and black combo. Looks pretty cool...at least to me...lol.

I always thought it was a nice color combination, and not like mine, where there's 50 just like it right around the corner. Harley offered 15 colors that model year.
