I like the yellow le probably for someone else. Be good for a little while then I would grow tired of it. The white stripe is nice if it were black it would look like a giant bee. The orange 9 I really like but could not pass up the deal I got on my red 07. plus it matches the wifes bike so that's what i got. God Bless Mack

I've seen and sat on all the new bikes at the Int Motorcycle show when it was here in Seattle in early Dec. I like the new LE yellow really stands out!!! and lets face it we did not buy the 109 to look like everyone else. The Orange is really nice if not a little more laid back in color's the new deeper silver is nice also. and of course in come's in Black. I personally have a 07 in Red and love that color too!!! I just want SUKI to keep right on making the 9 to fit everyone's color taste, that way I have more brothers and Sister's to ride with!!!

also I noticed the CT109 AND C109 WAS A HUGE CROWD FAV ITS GOING TO SELL LIKE HOT CAKES.

Not really for me but it is original and supposed to be limited and i am sure it will sell. This year at bike week I saw more LE's than any other color so whats up with that.:)

I own a 08' LE, the yellow is different but that's why I wanted it.. Girlie, I think not.. I get sooo many compliments. The bike is BRIGHT and catches the eye. Women love it, who loves yellow more..?? I had the blurple 06' and it got alot of attention too. Let's face it, you really can't go wrong which ever color you choose. EXCEPT FOR THE WHITE, YUCK...

At the bike show in Dec. I saw the yellow and orange bikes. I would like the yellow with
a black stripe. Its limited in the sense of the color for that year not production. I still like
my 07LE better. The red was a close second for me.

The blue LE is where its @! that was a HOT bike but this yellow is GROSS! I own the Orange and LOVE that and EVERYONE compliments on how hot the color is and looks. I also agree with some others that like the new platinum. Its pretty sweet looking to. I kinda like it better than the old silver. More depth to it and shows off the chrome on the bike better.

I also have an 08 LE, Yellow is not a color I would normally choose but this is no ordinary yellow.
I had an 07 black until I totalled it 6 weeks ago so I'm hoping that Deer can see Yellow cause thay sure can't see Black.
