Haven't seen one yet. My dealer keeps expecting one to show up any minute (for the last two months), They do have the new America. That blue and cream is not bad at all.

My dealer has a black one... but not a red one. I like the slash cut pipes....but still feel they belong on an America...


Gina 03 America - Pretty stock - except the TBS wheel... 06 America - missing, presumed in bits. With it's TBS wheel... 09 America - It's very blue....

I sat on one at Blackfoot Motorsports in Calgary, AB Canada. IMHO I really didn't like it that much. Its just a shade too dark for my likes.

Yep. I like the wheels. Everything else about the same. Mulberry ain't my fav. I think those former BA colors are best suited for the BAs. If I were to buy a SM today, it would have to be black. I'm not big on black - Its just the best available SM color for '07 (IMO).

I saw the '07 Mulberry Speedmaster in person last week. I did not care for the color with the black motor. I saw a mulberry '06 America in pictures and that color looks much better with the silver engine. The mulberry is just too dark with the black engine. I would have to stick with an all black SM if I were to buy an '07.

The America red and black looked pretty good when I was looking at it in Florida.

I'm thinking the Mulberry red and silver with the grey engine is the way to go

The wheels are okay, but time will tell. The new shiny black cast spokes, as well as the new rear peg hangers, I think, look like they were "dipped" or something - I don't know. Just doesn't fit the look. The color (mulberry) was uh, different. The new polished fork legs add a nice touch.

I never was that big on black either, (other than three good Black Labs), but when I bought my SM in '04, I just could not go with the Tornado Red, the Yellow, or the Sky Blue. For me at the time, Jet Black it had to be.

The newer Neon Blue I could have lived with, but Black is classic.
