Damn right I would/did! And NO, I'm not gay. I just wanted something different, than your three (blue, black, red) colors that EVERYONE has. I'm still in the process of putting the final touches on it. Hence, the missing battery.
My wife had my wide glide done in green to match my pick up. It was a surprise, I had put the WG to have some minor work done. The wife contacted the shop and had them do a frame up restoration with the green. Had it for a few more years before sold it.
Almost bought a purple fat boy back in 1985, but I would have spent too much to set it up the way I wanted...just kept my wide glide..
Forgot to mention, I believe this purple bike previous owner was a member of HA out of Charleston SC... I certainly wouldn't criticize his choice of color.
