Blue or Black?

Have a deposit down on a Blue 22 and really like the color scheme. The more I think about it and I have at least a 2 month wait , will I really like the Blue 22 a year from now or do I cave and get a black one sooner? Could do without the blue rims and Graphics are ok but could always go different with kit. Thoughts and opinions ?

You won't like the blue. Ride to Indiana and trade me your wheels and bodywork for black!

You can't go wrong with either one.  You'll just go more right with one over the other...

I got the blue only because that’s what showed up at the dealer first. I am very happy with the color. You will be happy with either one.

I saw the blue one at the dealer and then on my way to Tijuana Mexico I saw a guy riding a blue one, I liked it a lot! I have the black and grey, but The blue looks bitchn'. I know it's hard to wait, but if I was you I would wait. You should be getting it in the summer. Good weather to ride a lot and break it in.

I really like the look of the blue in stock form (no graphics) but am not a fan of the blue wheels. Wish they both had black wheels, I ended up finding a black and grey one before the blue one showed up at another dealer. I think the black plastic will blend in more if you put a graphics kit on it. But both cool color schemes. You can always go with stronger aftermarket wheels laced to the stock hub in the future.

Get anyone that’ll get you on the road. I wanted the red to match my old machine, but would’ve been happy with any of the colour schemes. Luv em all. Give it a retro decal scheme or even replace the plastics to make it look any way you like over time. It’s a nice decision to have to make. 👍

Agreed! I got caught up in the color thing and lost out on one months ago. Sooner or later someone will make plastic kits for these things, until then graphics will make it any color you want. The sooner you can get out there on one the better I say, as long as it's the riding season for you.
