Default $200 Paint Job! Help me paint my bike.

You're probably thinking, "$200 paint job, are you crazy?" Long story short, it was won in a charity raffle at a rally a couple of months ago. The guy has painted some great scoots, planes, etc... I can go any two-tone color, but no flames or flake. I'm thinking a nice Black/pearl white combo, or red/white maybe? What say you, HD Forums. Yes, I know that it's my bike, but I'm at a loss. With that, it's December and time to pull it apart for that winter project.

BRING ON THE OPINIONS!!!

2007 Road King Classic (adding hard bags.)

Candy Red Gloss Metallic with a Satin black. I Think mixing Gloss and Satin look's hot and you don't see it often.

I'd throw in a little extra cash and get some flake with ghost flames. Color is very subjective. Hold on...Black isn't even a color.

Road King Classic, take look at turquoise and antique white. Actually just about any color looks good with antique white on a RKC.

Don't take the bike apart... get a set (even if individually) off a wreck on ebay... have the shop paint them! Then you can switch back if you don't like them.... or sell the entire NEW painted set BACK on ebay!
