    Put some chrome on a black bike and it really looks nice, but I would probably go for the blue first. The colors that I really did not like are the flat colors, looks like it was premiered and needs to be painted.

    Right where you want it
    Down low

    It's a 900 pound bike fully loaded

    HP doesn't do diddly as it's not a racing bike.

    Build the most area you can under the TQ curve...

    I think black with a nice wide pearl white pin strip, kinda like the saddle shoe look!! or could have a skunk look, either way I think it is something different!

    yeah but 22,500 is an expensive base, especially for an untouched 011, then I have to spend the money to go out there,m money for air fair, then I have to pay shipping as well.. A lot of money....

    I can do without the ABS and cruise. It would be nice but just not something that I have to have.
