Default saw a "black ice" bike today in person

at Buckiminn's in Xenia. Didn't really care for it. The paint goes from a dark blue to a very wierd purple.....and the metal flake looks too large. Reminded me of a dunebuggy

I've seen it in person. Not my kind of color, but I can see people liking it. I just can't understand where they came up with the name of the color. "Black Ice" doesn't make any sense to me at all....

A guy bought a super-dooper Glide in "black ice" at the local HD shop while I was there yesterday. The color didn't work for me at all. It's the purple at the bottom that I didn't like. The Roadglide Custom and Streetglide in the gaudy scarlet red were abominations in my book, too.
