@Louis:

we will know on Monday 

[T MAC]

I REALLY like the paint!  Not sure about all the black outed parts.  I realize there are trying to market a "Different Look" on the bike, maybe they will have more of this look in 2011 - The Ultra Limited hints toward changes. 

I will have to see it in person to really know but I could easily see myself exchanging blacked out parts for chrome ...maybe this is Moco's way to sell more accessories 

Anyway how could I pull up to my OCD anonymous meeting with the blacked out parts on my bike

Ask Dick W. He has already gone this route and switched back.

I'm wondering how the "blacked-out" parts will look after a year of riding?

Will it clean up and hold up as nice a chrome does?  A little stone chip on chrome doesn't show as much as it would on a black painted part.

It showed up on the Harley website today, check it out!

It's listed as Custom Color #2 at $500 more than the standard Custom Colors #1.

Yes, but it has a better GPS, and a new remote lock.
I also believe the black you see, is black chrome, not paint.

That's actually not a bad deal considering what you're getting for the added $500. Don't forget the serialized nameplate.

I LIKE IT!     The picture showing the left side of the bike is sweet!  Which still leads me to believe I would change some black for chrome - I would start with the A/C cover.  The new gauges, grips and floorboards are nice they will most likely be the new line for 2011 CVOs.

I do like the new gauges, something to look foward to next year.
Sure hope to see "BIG" changes next year! I can only dream.

NEW HARLEY-DAVIDSON® CVO™ ULTRA RIDES TO THE DARK SIDE
Serialized Edition with Blacked Out Touring Comfort and Road Tech™ zūmo® Navigator
MILWAUKEE (January 24, 2010) – The new 2010 Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO) Ultra Classic® Electra Glide® trades the shine of chrome for a fade to black in its debut as the new, darker version of this truly exceptional Harley-Davidson Touring motorcycle.

Each motorcycle is serialized from one to 999, and displays a formidable array of blacked out components, led by the serialized CB pod insert and the Gloss Black Rumble Collection and low-smoked windshield, the new CVO Ultra adds leading-edge technology with a handlebar-mounted Road Tech™ zūmo® 660 GPS Navigator and an integrated automatic lock system that now includes the ignition knob.

The CVO Ultra is powered by a black and chrome Screamin' Eagle® Twin Cam 110™ engine and a 6-speed Cruise Drive® transmission, which is the largest-displacement V-Twin engine offered from the factory by Harley-Davidson. Besides the black powertrain, this menacing touring bike revels in all things dark with a Crimson Mist Black / Dark Slate and Flame graphics base color, and approximately 185 other unique black parts, components and accessories meticulously melded to form and function by the CVO team.

Among the main attractions on the dark road to CVO Ultra custom inspiration are the Contrast Chrome Roulette wheels, the Rumble Collection featuring nine Gloss Black accessories from mirrors to saddlebag latch covers, black engine and saddlebag guards, and Diamond Black gauge faces. All these deeply dark features combine to make the Ultra into an inspired motorcycle that could only come from Harley-Davidson CVO.

The CVO Ultra presents a lower profile up front with a 6.5-inch smoked windshield and adds premium Touring features like anti-lock braking system (ABS), LED saddlebag lights, Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI), a six-gallon fuel tank, Brembo brakes and 160-watt CD/AM/FM/WB/MP3 Advanced Audio System by Harman-Kardon, CB and intercom, and passenger audio with controls, cruise control, plus standard XM Radio.

The CVO Ultra is built on the innovative Touring chassis introduced by Harley-Davidson in 2009, based on a single-spar, rigid backbone frame and swingarm specifically developed to suit the needs of long-haul touring rides.

Developed for Harley-Davidson by Garmin, the Road Tech zūmo 660 has a new mounting position for convenient viewing by both rider and passenger with a glove-friendly touch screen, left-handed controls and a bright, UV-resistant display that's easy to read in sunlight.
