Default Cherry Red/ Red Merlot Limited

Talked to a couple of dealers lately, it sounds like Harley is unclear about how many more of the Red/ Red Limited Ultras are going to be available. Has anyone heard anything else about this?

I understand that HD makes a complete run on the full number promised to dealers. Unless they're not moving off the dealers floors I can't imagine why they'd stop making them. My wife and I are considering one. Who knows? Maybe the price'll drop.

Have you seen one yet? Awesome color...but I think I like the color mix scheme on the Ultra a little more than on the Limited. The Ultra has the Merlot/Cherry on the Tour Pack while the Limited only has the Merlot on it.

I agree wuth whiskers, these bikes are not numbered so they will continue to be available. Now i can say they are being sold as fast as they are being built, regardless of color. Just visit any dealer and see if they have any limiteds, im betting you will be hard-pressed to find one!

I know that a dealer here in St. Charles, MO. has two of those in the FLHX.
Very nice color combination! I REALLY loved the "Root Beer" one in 09! If I could find one of those used, I would try very hard to buy it.

FWIW, I was at my local dealership yesterday, salivating over that very bike. The sales guy, whom I trust, said that was the only one they'd be getting in.

I think they will reduce inventory before they ever have a fire sale!

The best deal I have heard of is $2500.00 off a new 09 Ultra Classic.

My Dad just put a deposit on the one his dealer had on order and it is supposed to deliver late January. Can't wait to see it.

I bought one last week. merlot and cherry red ultra.My bike never saw the showroom. It was mine before it ever got off the truck. I got them to put it in the agreement that they would deliver it.

I take delivery of mine on the 14th, The dealer has had a total of 3 of the limiteds in this color and each one has sold in a matter of days. Another dealer has one that has been on the floor for about 2 months.... I hope they dont over build them, after all they are called "Limiteds" right? The Ultra's paint scheme is alot different than the Limited's and I am thinking its the type of bike that when you see it, you like or dislike the colors. I will be adding the V&H Dresser Duals and MO's...It has been almost a month since I ordered it and I am going crazy with anticipation....

I too hope they don't over populate the limiteds.
I'm going with the power duals and monster ovals. I had a set of MO'S on my 05 ultra and thought that they have the perfect exhaust note.
also having the 255 cam and super tuner instaled. It should pull my bushtec trailer up the bigger hills with the greatest of ease. looking forward to a new ride as well.
