"I'm diggin that 2-tone frame. Good stuff."

That's not for pretty, it's done by bike makers to throw off photographers. They "black out" portions so you can't make out detail.

At one point, HD blacked out the entire VRod prototype that took to the roads.

I understand the camo treatment but that doesn't mean it isn't pretty.

I like the shifting linkage & lever on the two-tone prototype.

I think that 2-tone was trying to hide more than styling details. From a distance it probably looks like a typical sport bike frame.
