I'm a fan of pearl...but it can be problematic if you ever have to match it. That said, it's much less of a problem on a motorcycle than a car or truck.

The Scorched Apple is pearlescent on my Breakout. The myriad of different shades it both throws out and can be captured on film in different light conditions is quite amazing.

2012 White Hot Pearl. I love the color. It explodes in the sun, but it's hard to see it in pictures.
