So Raven is metallic matte black?

I was driving home from a business trip today and happened to pass a funeral home. All black suburbans and a hearse. I think I will refer to the 08, 09 and now the 17 as the morticians model.

I would enthusiastically ride one.

 

[BakerBoy]

Crow black.

Bummer.

 

[rogdeb]

Will the '17 come with new and strengthened mirror mounts ?

 

[Eric L]

that chrome is only going to slow it down

 

[airboss]

Hooray for Black.

Since I already got it, don't have to buy it.

It's just plain ol gloss black. They have several models this year using it, I just got back from the debut.

 

[Silverbullet]

I'm sooooo glad it's not red again. I'm trying to hold off until the next major change but regardless, the next time it is red, my checking account is dead! I've never had so many people fawn over any motorcycle I have ever owned.

Did you realize that the bike on video has diferent rear carrier? Looks like some steel tube aftermarket part.

That's for the aftermarket Shad topcase, isn't is?

No, but the soft paint is optional now.

 

[kebo123]

Yes it is - when checked video ones more it is listed in list of accessories - at the beginning of the shot.
