Looks great and great choice of color! Curious if you took apart the pieces yourself?

Thanks a lot everyone. The color is 2009 Corvette Cabernet Red. And yes I took it all apart myself. 22 pieces to paint. 12 bags of bolts. and 2 days work to put it back together again. But I love it!

Looks almost identical to mine... I used House of Kolors Brandywine Candy Red and it would be hard to tell them apart...Give you a "thumbs-up" for doing the work yourself...Had dealer do mine before I picked it up and their painter did an excellent job...I too get a lot of compliments on the bike....Ride safe....

Dealer took my bike apart, had a custom painter who works part-time for them paint all parts and then had one of the techs, who builds mostly trikes for them, re-assemble bike..Cost was about $2000. I did not have the dash painted as some do...Left it stock...Ride safe

Been there, done that, got the "T" shirt.

Great color. Be sure you get some touch up from your painter........

Now you can be proud of your bike, and stop spending hours trying to cover up the crap paint from Honda.

I feel your pain on the 2013 black. I'm in the middle of getting mine painted. I like the black so it'll soon be a metallic black with several coats of clear urethane. 2015 Dodge Ram color called maximum steel metallic. Should have it all put back together by the end of next week.
