Question Black & Gold

Saw this on Ebay and contacted the seller.
He insists this is a stock Black and Gold Nomad.
It looks Silver to me, what do you think.
Hey, I'm bored today. The weather sucks and I have all my to do list taken care of.

Officially the color choices for 2007 were:

Ebony
Candy Cardinal Red/Metallic Titanium
Ebony/Metallic Titanium

So... his "gold" color is actually Kawa's version of Titanium.

Their Ebony isn't exactly the color I would suspect ebony to be... but in looking it up... Ebony can also be dark blue.

That is the sames as mine. The official Kawasaki description is "Ebony and Titanium", it does look gold though.

That's funny Jared... and I laughed, but unfortunately that color is considered by HD to be Crystal Copper and Black Diamond.

However I have to admit that guy's version of gold isn't anywhere near what others would call "gold"...

He is either color-blind, illiterate, or too lazy to look-up the color. Probably a good thing he is selling the bike...;)

That ain't gold, no how, no way. If it is, then Scott's is teal.
