Default Looks/Colors do Matter - Or not

Im haveing a tough time as I found an incredible deal on an 06 Fatboy. Lots of extras, only 1800 miles and he will leter go for $12500. My problem is, I would prefer another color. No offense if anyone here has the same color scheme - definitely a personal thing. I just would prefer a solid black or white or yellow bike. Im actualy loosing sleep over this because I know its an incredible deal and it wont be around very long... may be sold even as I write this. Should I buy it anyway and maybe I will end up loving the color... after all, beauties only skin deep.

If you feel the deal is that good, go for it.....what's the worst thing that could happen?&nbsp\\; Give the colors time to grow on you, and if they don't, then re-paint it.

He has more stuff hes giving with the bike thats not even mounted yet. Chrome brake cylender, chrome handles some other odds and ends. He also mentioned that he has $400 credit at Harley he may throw in. I will need to spend $200 to get the $400, something like that...

$12,500 for an 06 Fattie?! Man don't quibble about the colour...it's not that bad. And it has after market pipes, Stage 1 and obviously some chrome tidbits (bags are kind of homely). And only 1800 miles, not even broke in. Buy it man and change it later as you go.

Alright, you guys pushed me over the edge. I just bought the bike He backed out on the extra chrome handgrips and chrome cylinder parts because he says he already is giving the bike away and needs to sell those parts to help offset his losses. He is giving me the $400 credits at his delership. So now I need to think of $600 worth of stuff for the bike. I know, $600 wont buy much...
