And if you watch this video at the 3:50 mark and forward, you will see what I mean. Not cheap but plain BAD ***.

Beautiful bike!
Funny story. A good riding buddy had to have Gauntlet Gray. But he wanted one solid color. Last September he decided to pull the trigger on the two tone with Guantlet Gray complaining all the way. I suggested that he wait a few months to see what 2022 offers. No, he was very impatient and wanted it now. Two weeks ago I was talking with him and he is kicking himself. Trying now to work out a deal to trade a 2021 with 2k miles for a new solid color. I doubt he'll be able to make it happen without a huge loss. Actually his two tone color has really grown on me. But the solid would be my choice!

Buy the way that Gauntlet Grey and Black looks great. If you can get a good deal go for it. 👍

So an interesting thought has come to mind. I have a 2022 Ultra Limited on order which is significantly delayed, go figure. But an option has unexpectedly presented itself. 2021 in Gauntlet Gray Metallic that is blacked out. If it wasn't blacked out, I'd pass and wait on it. Originally my thoughts were Vivid Black and blacked out or nothing.. but I have to say, this scooter looks pretty damn sharp in the photos.
So tell me more if y'all have a scooter in Gauntlet Gray, the good, the bad and the plain old fugly.
Peace out ..

Great looking color scheme. Much better as a solid color in my opinion.
The only thing differently I would do is below!
Good looking Rig right dar!

My two previous (non-Harley) bikes were black. Black bikes are classic and beautiful, but do show dirt, dust, and swirls/scratches more than most other colors.
When I bought my Road King, I had an appointment to look at a black one, but when I saw that brilliant silver paint in the sun, I knew that was what I wanted. It looks light gray in the garage or a cloudy day, but has metallic flecks that sparkle in the sun. I like shiny things.
For me it would be no hesitation- I would get that 2021 gray bike you posted rather than wait on a black 2022 (assuming the deal was acceptable). I also agree with the person above that mentioned some red pinstripes or accents.
But ultimately it is what will YOU be happy with - if you are set on a black 2022 and know you will be disappointed with anything else, then wait for what you really want.
