Default Color Decision!!!

I'm having sleepless nights on deciding what color I should order my new Fatboy in. My '97 Fatboy was black, so I want to get a different color. Overhere in Italy, I've only seen the Vivid Black in the showroom. I've narrowed it down to White Gold Pearl, Pacific Blue Pearl, andDeep Cobalt Blue. I would appreciate any opinions from anyone who has seen these colors in person. Thanks!!!

IMO, as an owner of a black '07 FB, the three you mentioned are nice choices. Remember to consider the color of the accent stripes and H-D decalon each color. If you don't like those on the side of the tins, it will gnaw at you no matter how much you like the main color. Brighter colors on a Fat Boy really make it look BIG.

The white looks very cool in person.

I prefer the black pearl or the black cherry pearl, both are sweet looking bikes.

Given those choices, I'd go with Cobalt Blue!

I think all colors look fantastic on Harleys. I'm curious to see how the Pacific Pearl Blue looks in person. I spoke to the Harley dealer here in Italy, and they might be gettinga white and a cobalt blue in. Still confused!!!

I agree, just saw one at the dealer and it looked great.

They also had a burgandy/creme that was my favorite.

Checked out your profile - doesn't look like you're close to my location in Italy.


Tough choice! For years I thought Black was the only color for a Harley. When I ordered the new one, my wife actually talked me into Deep Cobalt Pearl. No regrets at all. Definitely an attention getter.

Good luck,

Don
