Anyone heard rumors about what colors will be offered for 2016? I loved the 2014 Quartz Blue, and before I try to deal on a leftover '14 model, I was wondering what colors will be available in '16? Don't love any of the '15 colors, although the matte gray is cool. Already have a gray bike, though.

What on earth are you talking about 'mat grey' how double dare you its Calisto Grey and not only is it the colour of a 'stealth' fighter' it is BMW flagship colour of the RT Fleet, some respect please :swat: notwithstanding its the fastest colour too.
Only kidding me personally I have not heard of any colour changes, but I am sure there will be, Hey you never know Diego may even get his orange bike (on another thread). Best of luck with your decision Mercator 1 and welcome to the show.

As they have altered some of the colours for every year of manufacturer I suspect there will be no change for 2016. Mat Grey indeed.

Got some devastating news for all fast grey fans. No more in 2016. Replaced by Bronze Metallic. God help us all. Blue and the Ebony carry on.

It would make sense to discontinue Ebony - otherwise with that and Bronze, there would be two shades of brown!
This will probably increase the second-hand value of the faster grey ones...

Ebony is still shown for next year. Think of a 15 year old gold Citroen Saxo. That's what the bronze looks like.
