I've had a deposit down on a new SESG2 and the BlackDiamond/Crimson came in. But for me, its too "plain" compared to the previous 2 SE I've had. I know people will disagree with me, but the main reason I buy the SE is for the flashy paint they have had. This year's models seem too plain. I've seen the Orange but to me it looks peach. Has anyone seen the Green/Kryptonite? I was disappointed they had no blue color scheme but the green seems appealing. If it doesn't knock my socks off, I guess I wait until next year (which sucks).

Any thoughts?

I wish I would of taken pictures at sturgis! Green blew me away, only complaint from me is the black motor and wheels. Stereo did blow me away as well! If I was getting one green would definitely be the one! Liked the b/o till I saw it. Still my 2nd choice just wish the black was on bottom.

Saw one in Sturgis as well. Liked it a lot. Took photos, will try to post soon. So many bikes, so little time.

Can you guys post any pictures?

I don't like any of the new colors either.

I love the look of the black motor over the gray [granite] motor. Makes the chrome really stand out. Gray looks cheap IMO

we go pick up our Black Diamond/Inferno Orange SESG today. we went and looked at it last night while it was up on the lift in the service area as they just uncrated it.

if ur looking for flashy (i do) the orange is the way to go. WAY better in person than pics...........i have seen a lot of SE bikes and IMHO this is the flashyest! the orange, the black, the silver, the purple highlites (all are meteallic and/or pearl)...........gorgeous!

we debated the Kryptonite but came to the concusion that it was just too plain............

I agree 100%. I saw them all at Sturgis. The orange is soo nice. I really like black, but if you don't like mostly black, orange is the best by far, in my opinion.

I hope someone can post pictures. I really wish I would have taken some. In my opinion the green has way more flash than the orange from the back and seat profile. The orange one just looks black from the seat and the rear vs the green is very bright and metallic. The orange does have chrome wheels and chrome on the engine components though. I wish they would have put the chrome wheels And chrome engine components on the green. Even better they should have put the orange on top and the black on bottom then the orange would have been a must have IMO.

my wife a 09 FLHX rider seems to be besotted with this green machine, I think she is more interested in the lowers with the boom boom speakers and the black engine, she is not one for chrome.........we might just get a new forum member soon

lance100 · « **Reply #15 on:** August 15, 2010, 06:00:46 AM »

Thankyou for posting the pics - still think the B/O is the way to go for me here in Aus. Good luck with the ride and will post some pics (with a Kangaroo) when I get it!!

blown alcohol · « **Reply #16 on:** August 15, 2010, 06:30:25 AM »

It would be very hard for me to choose between the green and orange. I like the chrome over the black, but like the bright color on top. This seems to be what most people post too.

Just doesn't do it for me, still prefer the 2010 paint.

Excellent picture post!

DavidG · « **Reply #20 on:** August 15, 2010, 08:49:19 AM »

Thanks for all the pictures. I'm now stuck between the orange and green. Outdoors the orange looks really great as well as the green. I was told the orange looks peach but from the pictures I don't see where that comment came from. Now I have to see what color my dealer is getting in next assuming the black/crimson sells soon...

I agree. 2010 paint with gold leaf is a much cleaner look IMHO.

DavidG · « **Reply #22 on:** August 15, 2010, 09:56:16 AM »

I can't believe they skipped blue. If they had made one of these, I'd already be riding....

really? i think the 2010 (although i like the flame pinstripe) are a bit bland.........IMO. the B/O 2011 in real life is gorgeous! SO glad we didn't go green!

I like the idea that there are speakers mounted in the lowers... does that mean they have to stay on all the time?? kinda hot down here... I can't remember the last time I had mine on.

Interesting green...not my color but I am certain there is a market for it...
