Default Limited Production 2019 Street Glide Special in Torched Orange?

My dealer said that they already stopped making the 2019 Street Glide Special in Torched Orange. WTF? They didn't even get one and now they are done making them? This has to be BS.

Not BS. I was just up at York doing the factory tour a month or so ago. They mentioned a problem with the paint vendor (did not specify). Long story short, whats made is made and thats it.

You could always just get your bike repainted.

Um, I think maybe this is why it's called a limited edition. Just a guess.

I didn't realize this was limited edition but even if it was, they had it for just a couple of months and my dealer never even had one. As far as painting, that won't get me up to what a 2019 is. Thanks for the suggestion but it's more than paint I was after.

It's not a limited edition. It just ended up being a limited run do to issues with the paint/supplier.
