mcgoogles56 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Any other armor grey owners? Have only seen a couple pics of them other than mine. Thought I'd share some pics. Hope to see some others. Sorry about my dirty evo in the background. Only a couple weeks old, have a fender eliminator and the motodynamics tail. Exhaust on the way.

xeon Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Grats! I was holding out for this color but after waiting a monthfor one to come in, I just bought a Raven and swapped the plastics to the color I originally wanted back in 2015 (white). Two days later, the Armor Grey arrived at my dealer. It looks great I person, I think my only criticism would be trying to keep those wheels clean. 2016 Raven (White) ~ Akrapovic Carbon Exhaust / 2WDW ECU Flash / CRG LS Mirrors / Seat Concepts Seat / Givi Windscreen / OES Sliders / R6 Throttle Tube / Ohlins YA419 & NIX22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duenan Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I really like the color because you can wear high vis yellow jacket and you might possibly look cool in it. @afistfullofmoto is sporting that color. Not sure if there are more. Engaging with people that have personality disorders on a message board is like arguing with a rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccam7374 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I really like that color, I just hope that when I go to make my purchase they have that color scheme cause I will get it for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member rowdy Posted May 5, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted May 5, 2016 I love the grey. It's the first time I've seen it, and I really like it! Nice matching hi-vis helmet too! I can see how keeping the wheels clean might be an issue (it is on my burple wheels to a lesser degree). The bike would look great with black wheels too, so if it becomes too big of an issue, you could always have them powder coated black, and the bike would still look fantastic (as it does now). Why can't left turners see us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kojaxxx Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 It's a great color but for me personally I'm keeping a all black theme with just the rims hI viz. There is all sorts of stuff with the hi viz you can get for the bike, but I find anything else is just too much. Only thing I would consider is a semi hi viz helmet, or gloves.

Yeah I figured the little stripe on my helmet is enough for me, full high viz would look goofy to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigity Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Whoah. I f***ing love this color setup. Those wheels are hot! *quickly looks up powdercoaters in the area and prices on the panels* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robertbishop Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 This color was released literally days after I bought my bike. I had no idea. Still I'm in love with my Raven. Just jealous of those black body parts around the rearsets. Want to have mine powder coated black, but I haven't yet been willing to stay off the bike that long. Maybe this winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
designslucid Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Just a tip on the wheels. Buy Teflon spray. If you can't find the straight Teflon spray, they make a silicone spray with Teflon, makes for a quick wipe up clean! Love this bike, glad I waited 8 months to finally pull the trigger on buying one. I'd have been sick if I missed this scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e30kawi Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 At first I didn't think I would like those yellow wheels, but I actually really like them. I thought the only wheel for me would be the blurple wheels but these hi viz ones might work also. Anything but a black wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
