Hi all,

I have been trying to decide what color to go with for a 2015 SG CVO.  I want a color that pops, but not over the top.  I like the silver, but feel that the flake may be a little too much. I also like some color and the silver/black may be a bit monotone.

I also like the blue, but don't want it to look too purple.

The reviews thus far is that both colors look great and folks that have bought them really like their selection.  so what is your opinion?

I'm gonna be biased because of the ultraviolet and orange color combo....if it were me or my decision, I'd pick da blue

I liked the blue orange the best

Not much help but know of 3 blue/orange ones at ohio dealers and haven't seen a silver one.

If you want to  clean/polish after every ride, get the blue.  Get the silver if you don't.  Either look great.

The blue won't be any where near as bad as black and I wouldn't get a color that you don't love just because you have to clean it.

The one thing that I noticed with dark metallic paint is that any little hair line scratch shows up like a sore thumb, just got a new truck in deep blue and the first day I parked it at work I come out and see a 3in hair line scratch in the front quarter panel, probably someone just brushed against it but now I have a white line in the clear, too much real estate on the bags and tank to worry about

I can relate to your mental battle. I think silver looks the best, but it's a little too flashy for me. The yellow is really sharp and I do prefer the black accents over the chrome, but I wish it were black with yellow flames, instead of mostly yellow. The black and gold was the one I thought was for me, it was very understated. The other problem was that the black was sooo black that it almost made the speaker grills on the bags appear grey. Blue and orange isn't one I'm interested in, so I haven't tracked one down. Good luck LOL.

The Blue and Orange seem to be at every dealer on the west coast. It is the first and only color available out here right now. In fact i know of one dealer that has four of them in stock. Yes four of the same color. It doesnt seem to be selling as every dealer still has it in stock. However the color does look great in person. I am waiting to see a Yellow one that is coming in about a week and a Silver one that is about a month out. Before i make my decision.

does that mean that you are not voting?

I'm somewhat in the same boat. I've only seen the blue / orange in person, but I have a deposit on the silver and black. It's due to arrive in early Oct. I'm hoping that when I see it, it really pops and screams my name. It's not easy to give up the Tequila Sunrise I have now.

That (IMO) is the only way to decide what color is right for you .... just like.... ummm.... you know what we all have ... opinions are like that... what I like and moves my soul may not be what the next person likes.... one has to decide what really moves their soul and purchase that bike/color to truly (again IMHO) to be happy and satisfied.

I agree with Fired00d in that you should pick what pleases you.
You are the one that's going to pay for it, stare at it everyday of ownership and every mile down the road.

No matter what, many compliments will come your way but so will the negative comments, some will be in jest and others not so much -Who cares what others think 
Compared to those Harley folk that feel a true Harley is either black or flat black and us CVO folk ride around "tarted up like a hooker's handbag" we all offend someone out there.......

Since they're all the same price now might as well get the hard candy color.

The silver black is awesome.
