    As posted I'm not a vivid black color person but was going vivid black to keep the payments down. That mysterious red sunglo/Blackend Cayenne Sunglo 2 tone is very sharp, I prefer a solid color rather then 2 tone. Like you said we like what we like.

    I find the silver pearl an unusual not typical silver. Its a softer tone and yeah like a Navy Ship yard,lol.

    That silver pearl is a nice color. I didn't think of navy ships when I saw it LOL. When we went on our poker run last week I looked closely at several of the new bikes at the HD dealership in Rocky Mount. There was a blue Sporty I really liked, too. Blue is my favorite color.

    A few weeks or even a few months is not too long to wait. Be patient! At least you have a bike to ride in the meantime. I waited 3 years from inception till the day of my first ride.

    I guess it's just me on the grey color as I swore when I got out of the Navy that I would never own a grey vehical. Another color for 2015 that I don't like is the green. I'm like BD in that I do like blue. The two tone grey and black to me looks better than the solid grey.
    I guess BD you should be like all of us and buy the color that you like the best. The only black Harley I have ever owned is my anniversary 03 Heritage Springer and a 03 anniversary ultra I had.
    What ever color you get you have to show pictures.

    Yep, I saw a bunch of those Green Machines out in York. I would want them to take white paint and paint "Scott's" on the sides of them and hook up a lawn spreader to the tour pack.

    Joshbob on a Sporty? Knew he was getting modernized! Might be looking at pushbutton phone for the house instead of a rotary dial one soon! LOL!
    My daughter noticed my old office rotary phone a while back, wondered how it worked. Man, I'm getting old...

    Went to monthly club meeting this morning. Another new ultra limited bought. We have 15 2015 Ultra Limiteds and 1 2015 Road Glide. I gotta find me a poorer Harley club to ride with.

    Man, so poor up here the Harley clubs had to shut down because members could only afford old used Hondas. Now we have a bunch of SoA looking characters on dirty 750 Shadows. Makes a grown man cry....
