Black bikes are always cool, but much of the reason I opted for the Anniversary model was the really cool two tone paint. You have to go with what speaks to yah!
"gloss black"? c'mon, you gotta learn the language …. it's "Vivid Black". When new and clean it is awesome but black will show every swirl mark, and 5 minutes after a polish it is filthy again… 9 years on a Vivid Black FLHT … I know.
I have a black one and copper & black I'm a slave to the black bike. I can wash and wax the black one and half hour later it needs to be cleaned. there you have my two cents
White and black. Both classic colors. I was a little nervous ordering off of online color samples. In person with the sun shining it beat my expectations!
Black looks good when clean and polished up. That only lasts a few hours then you see all the dust, dirt, swirl marks, fingerprints and whatever else. Plus they blend in with the sea of all the other black bikes.. I personally will never own another black bike or car.
