Not the best picture,,, not a lot of room on the show room floor

Funny, have seen both and although blue is one of my favorite colors. The way the red seems to be a differant color depending on how the light hits it just does it for me. Would love either one but my vote is for the RED.

Been out of touch here in Baghdad for a while....

As Cowboy mentioned, I definitely wasn't looking for a RED-BLUE bagging.  I had a red one on order; it never arrived; when I saw a blue one come in I jumped on it; no regrets.

I love the way the colors bang in the sun and the bike takes on a different look.  One of these days I'd like to see how the red one does the same.

Cheers!

I'm surprised that the dealership had both as they usually don't stay around long!...at least at Indy North

Have four dealers with in half hour of each other.
two of the bigger ones both had both bikes on the floor and they have had them for some time.
but as of now I'm the only one that has a Rio on the road, here in portland area,
the other Rio Red's that did get sold  of the dealer went somewhere else
Not sure on the Blue if  any on the road here in portland. not see any on  here on the site.
I know at Salem Harley, they did a dealer trade gave their blue for a Rio, and they have had Rio now for over a month

Like I have stated before you can not go wrong with either bike..Both are great looking!!!!!!!

Being fair minded, and in the Transport Business in Australia with Bushtracker, so used to looking at colours....
My impression is the Rio suffers in the shade or in the showroom, and the Blue stands out...

In the sunlight, I think they both would COME ALIVE...! 

Then it is just the case of the colour you prefer, I like the look of the Red and Black for BAD!  But personally the Blue was a sucker punch.  I missed the Red anyway, and only got a shot at the Big Blue.  Which ever you have or choose, there is no better, BE HAPPY WITH IT!!!  They are both top notch..!!!

Love the photo Cowboy!  From the photos on your wall, it looks like you might have a soft spot for one in stallion brown.

Hello Ziploc,
Those are my Daughters, now 18, since they were about 12 they have won 8-10 State and National Youth Championships and about a dozen Buckles...  I have a whole house full of ribbons and trophies and such, but those in my office are not about me, but my Daughters..  I will brag on them.. heh he...   

You take care over there..

Cowboy

I picked the blue because my last UC was red, and I was ready for a change.

And of course as everyone knows, the blue ones go faster.
