My last bike was a gray V-Star. Seems like all I did was dodge cars. What's funny is it was only 1 year only and I was looking at a 3K paint jobs and the wife ask me why I was painting it since it looked like new. (all she saw was 3K) Needed something to say so I told here it would be much safer. Sold it and bought an older white bike--told her I was saving money.
I love white bikes. I think white paint, with everything else in black is by far the nicest look. That's why I have a white car, white truck, AND white bike all with black wheels lol. And the truck/car are darkly tinted with black accents.
I was looking at a black pearl SG until I saw mine on the floor. The Pearl White and the Spokes I hadn't seen before that day... rode it home 2 days later. Get the "thought you were a cop" all the time, though.
