I liked the black until I had (still have) one. The black powder coat is so soft it looks terrible after a while. But oh well, mine is a rider and still looks good from 20 feet away.

Maybe because they can charge $1600 (?) more for it

Not from me. They keep trying and always tell them, if it's not chrome, I won't take it home.

Forgot to mention - I don’t think I’d be changing bars. The stock one feel just right. The jury still out for seat and shocks but in measly 30+ miles of my ride home seat felt really good, need to spend few hours on it..
