I had to get glossy black on my FLHXXX as that was the only color available locally. I hate gloss black (loved the Black Denim on my Electra Glide) as it shows dirt ten seconds after washing it here in Arizona. Of more concern is rock chips. In my experience they tend wind up showing as white spots (especially after waxing a few times) and can look pretty awful after you've picked up a few. Has anyone tried the clear plastic stuff Harley sells or gone to an auto detailer for some of the clear bra stuff? What about the thick rubber black ribbed material Harley sells? Does it look to awful on a black trike?
