I would have never bought a black on based on a photo. But, i love mine. so much, i bought spare bodywork just in case.

The '14 standard does look nice in the flesh. I had mine for about 11 miles and miss it's overall look. I think I now prefer the '17 engine with it's semi black, but the '14 tank was really sharp because of the subtle grey swoosh and red pin-stripe.

The simple wing badge really makes for a classy look.

Contrast the CB1100 pin-stripe with that of my W800

While I love the blue, the thick, white stripe is too...thick. I'd prefer a few thin white stripes, and let the blue dominate.

Silly considerations and obviously the '17ex tank and the W's thick stripe didn't make me hesitate for a minute when buying, but I would love to be the one, or at least on the team that ultimately decides tank colors.
