Haha, i’m in the same boat, man! When I bought my Husky it was already covered in blue anodized parts! No way I would ever spend money re-buying the same part serving the same function at no better capacity, only in a different color! Outrageous!
Seriously, though…it was already covered in all the bling parts, but if I had to replace something (barkbusters, rear rotor guards, etc) I almost always caved and got the blue option…..

Jesus wept I have a Duke... With bark busters.... That are fucking orange!!! I didn't even think about them, but of course they're aftermarket!

Looking back the bark busters were 'meh' on purchase, I probably figured I could remove them. But after running them as an 'all weather' rider, I'm putting them on all future bikes. Not the weirdest setup, I knew a GSXR with mittens.
