PPG states that color trends have a 5-6 year lifespan....then those color palletes change with the changing times. Even nominal tone changes can be significant in our eyes. The only colors that typically don't trend? Primary colors. Silver has been and is predicted to be the most popular color on vehicles for a very long time. Silver equates to prosperity. Black is a close second and IMHO, the only way to go

- No need to color match inner fairings
- Easier to sell on the used market
- No "remorse" about what color you're buying

I find that buying bikes that have a color for a particular year makes the bike too dated. Would never sell a bile to get a particular color. I would get it in black and paint it whatever I want it to be. That way no one can say there goes a 2011 harley.

I know most guys like the black but I really like my white Heritage, I've had black,blue and green. But I think this one is my favorite.

Default Sedona Orange

No Sedona orange here...I like it but I liked these better, Especially since I saw the 1934 at the HD Museum. Traditional run's pretty deep in that Museum.



2010 HD mine. 1934 HD their's. Seem's to be a hint of Orange in both
