Black Denim Paint?

Yeah, dealer told me the same...fading is expected and normal. Perhaps preferred.
My '10 Fat Bob still looks "unfaded" after 5k, but they were cloudy miles. Be curious if someone with a bike in a sunny climate has experience otherwise.

I had someone say this to me once. "when are you going to get it painted?" Idiot.
I love my paint cause it's easy to maintain. Sometimes I miss the shiny though.

I kinda like the denim, but I'd like to see something other than black. I'd love to see a maroon or forest green denim.
I've heard there's some issues with maintaining the paint, but I don't know about that. You won't see me running out to spay any of it on my Ultra,though.

Don't like denim paint OR the blacked out look--too trendy & overdone,like giving your kid a last name for a first name. Everybody's been there & doing that.

Looks like i struck some nerves, I love black cars and bikes, just dont have any in primer. I was mainly saying HD is charging a premium for a paint job that shouldnt be. Even the salesman admitted it was the hot seller. Something about people watching too much Sons Of Anarchy or sumtin?

personally, i like my primered... i mean denim black road glide. takes me just a few minutes to clean it up and keep it looking good. so long to those 3 hrs to wax it. a little windex, maybe just a touch of chrome polish for the rocker box covers and i'm back on the road.
I remember when they first came out with the denim paints...I was talking with the dealer and he said something along the line of the reason they call it denim is because it changes with time and wear...like where your legs rub the sides of the tank the denim paint will become aged looking...is there any truth to that?? I kind of thought the salesman was full of crap at the time..
