Default Street Glide Charcoal Pearl

Looking at 2015 street glide special in charcoal pearl. How many others have this color? Looks good in showroom, just wondering if any have any regrets with this color? One of my concerns would be visibility to cars. Would you stand out enough so they don't pull out in front of you.

I love mine. It looks a 100x better in the sun than it does on the showroom floor. As for folks pulling out in front of you...your bike could be bright sunshine orange, on fire, with sirens and giant disco ***** and it would still happen.

My favorite color, but everyone seems to have it.

I currently have this as well for my SGS color choice, however, we will be custom painting our bike soon. I think it's a great choice.

I have the ultra limited in Charcoal pearl over black, I love the way it looks, just need to do the inner fairing now. at least around the gauges like a certain Amber Whisky over black one I've seen on here. It looks sharp!

It's a great neutral color that either be chromed or blacked out. As far as visibility goes, I ride an amber whiskey, and I don't know that I am any more visible to people not paying attention. Beefing up the lighting is probably the best bet.

I had mine ordered in this color but couldn't wait for delivery so I went with denim black. Wish I would have waited. Love that color

Awesome color. If they would have had a 14 left in that color I would have got it over the black.

I saw a limited low, I think, in Amber whiskey/charcoal pearl and it was an awesome looking combo. Definitely a 2 tone I would buy.

Ain't that the truth!

If worried about being seen just buy one those neon yellow or orange jackets, yikes! Nobody sees me, black bike, black jacket, black gloves, black boots, black sox, black t-shirt, black helmet, with tinted visor. "what bike, I didn't see no bike, where do I turn?"
