I'm not a expert on this stuff, I believe it is a mixed paint, but it is a color you could of bought from House of Kolor, it is now a discontinued color, so if someone chooses to copy it, oh well, I copied it from someone so it is what it is.

The builder that is building my bike (DD Custom Cycles, in lake villa il) has built one other bike it is on his website, the bike is called (black gold street glide) but he builds some amazing stuff, check it out. The painter who painted it is MNK Customs (Mokena IL) these 2 companies are great to deal with. Check email out. I will for sure take some more pictures when they are available. The most challenging pictures will be the one in the sun, there's a TON of the white stuff on the ground GRRRRRR but as soon as I can I will and add them to this post.

Thanks for all,of the positive words, I appreciate it.

I think I like it. Are you going to pinstripe the bike or add graphics or anything to it? Ghost flames?

Rocksandgiz, for now it will remain a solid color. I may pinstripe it later this summer, but until I decide what I wana do a solid color it will stay. It was hard enough to decide on the color!

Thanks everyone
