dealer has one coming this way later this month - thinking I'm going to move on it and put a smile on my face! The EGS with that black denim is sick -- gonna have to do it!

 

Thanks!

I heard that as well. Something like a half and half mixture of Windex and water is all that's needed to clean the bike. I myself have washed my bike once since August. Most of time it's just dusty so I take a chamois and rub it all down.

I was looking for a SG in black denim. Of course HD doesn't make it in that color, reason why I went with the EGS. I'm glad I went that way anyways because I have an aftermarket HU and speakers with an amp that sounds 10X better than stock without having to toss out the factory radio which in turn means tossing out $$$$. Also, I'm not into chrome.

Exactly! I really don't care how my paint wears. I'm over all the shiny paint jobs and blinged out chrome. I'll take primer over shine anyday!

 

denim is awesome. Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads and it will not shine. everything comes right off with soap and water. No swirls or little scratches. Best paint I have ever had on any vehicle.

 

I like the look but have heard some bad stuff about the finish its new so there is

always something -ride safe

 

i have the pewter denim, easy as can be to clean. no more scrubbing or buying hd bug removal spray. soap and water and the bugs fall off. I swear it!.....love this paint.

 

I love that flat demin black. Looks great on that Standard r8rs4lf. I saw one in my dealership. 09 Model for $18499 out the door. No sales tax. I was so tempted. But I couldn't get jack for mine because of age and mileage. Maybe next year if this economy turns around.

 

We were at the dealership recently and I was talking about how my next buy will have the black denim. The mgr calls me over to a denim bike. He states that they have had quite a bit of trouble with them and runs his fingernail across the tank, leaving marks. The marks wouldn't wipe off. I played tic-tac-toe right there on a tank...just little white lines all over it.
Then we went to the main dealership store. Here it was different. They invited me to fingernail-drag across four different denim bikes...nothing. No marks. No lines. Just real cool paint. The salesman told us that the other store uses Showtime cleaner/polish on all of their inventory. This product has wax, and that it is only this wax that is scratching. He told me the manual indicates what can and cannot be used. He stated that he uses Windex. He also said the mgr at the other location is a moron and has been told what he should use on the denim paints. I'm a believer.

 

Had my 07 SG done in black denim. The paint has flat clear mixed in with it. Easiest paint I've ever maintained. I clean it with McGuiars Quick Detailer. Spray on and wipe off. I've been on rides through three straight states and the only mark I have is from a small rock that barely scarred the front fairing.
