Title: ? on color and model years 06 07
Post by: Thadeus on April 17, 2007, 08:30:19 AM
Since It snow'd again today  >:( and god only knows when I'll be able to go see my bike.  I have been a bit confused on what my bike will look like.  Just bought it brand new less than a week ago.   Talked to a friend of mine at the dealer and he asked which color I wanted "Blue or Gray"

Now that I am thinking about it It is an 06 not an 07, so I really dont know what is waiting for me.

When I first realized it was an 06 I kind of thought it might be

But I know for sure he said "Blue or  GRAY"  and I dont really think i'd call that gray its really silver.  So then maybe he means...

So im wondering if there was some over lap in the avalible colors for the 06/07 models

Either way, i love the color, i think I like the "07" color a bit better but Im happy either way.   JUST cant wait any longer! :P

The blue is more of a metallic navy blue. The black/silver one is, well, black and silver.
