Ride what you want. It's your choice. People care too much what others think. If you let them choose your color do they then choose your route,speed,riding partners etc. etc. Be your own man. (person)
For a short time I rode a 1997 FLHRI which was the Violet Pearl. Not purple but kinda. I waited so long to get this new machine, that I at the time didn't give a wit what color it was. Joining the ranks of those behind the motorized handlebars of a new RK, was so delightful. ZOOOOOMMMMMM
I sold this dude and made $2,600.00 profit...another long story.
