Default Fatboy repaint.. Blackline look

Tins are at the shop, considering a blackline paint scheme on my fatboy.. HD Orange or a bright Pearl Orange over black.. Opinions?

I was going to do the same thing on my black 2012 Superglide till I traded it in on the orange Fatboy. I think it would look pretty sweet.

If you haven't decided on a scheme, why are your tins at the shop? Not quite sure you're doing this in order.... LOL

I like the Orange over black, but maybe do a fade to black, instead of solid separation?

Not factory. Done by Hardcore Chopper Concepts http://hccjohnsoncitytn.com/ in Tennessee. He's painting my 02 and sidecar.
The paint is Nectrine Dye over a silver base coat with a mid coat of base maker with silver metal flake

I like the H-D Orange faded into black. That sounds nice and different.
