Default Think wife wants Turquoise Deluxe

I always liked that color, I found her an 2009with only like 12000 miles...$13k...will look at it...it would be for her but for me to ride as a 2nd bike also.
Might be a little steep but it goes with about what the market supports....I also found a 2012 for about 15000 but damn, that's what they were selling new about...

I saw the 09 Deluxe when it came out - Dark Turquoise & Antique White - loved it, but the bike itself did not fit my needs. It is a good choice - Can't beat the colors and you will get positive feedback from old & young. I know......
I've ridden to car shows and guys with the 50's cars and trucks have asked me to park by them.

While its a nice color combo you can get a deluxe for cheaper than that and spend a little extra money to have it painted that way. Probably cheaper in the long run.

Good option. If so I would suggest copying one of the 50's paint themes and tank emblems. One of my next projects will be to find a Crossbones, do full fenders, with retro paint and bars.

Dark Turquoise & Antique White is an amazing combination.

That's my goal, also, make a crossbones look like a 48 pan, minus the pan.

That's what I did...got a black Heritage and did some trim work and had it painted.





Get lots of comments, most are pretty surprised that it is a 2012.

Well done. Yes I had a lady say "Oh that's a really old one."
