What's the one thing that makes your bike different from all the others?
The year that they made your bike, chances are that the MoCo made hundreds and hundreds of the exact same model, in the exact same color.
If you had to point to one unique feature that distinguishes your bike from all the others, what would it be? No fair to say, "Because its mine".
My bike is too new and aside from some chrome boards and pegs I haven't had a chance to make it unique yet. My old bike was unique because it was an FLHS (Electra Glide Sport), but I added a color-matched tourpak.

I win: 1953 FLF with special order paint in Glamour Green ( offered only in 1953)- how many bikes were painted Glamour Green?
I don't know- but of that tiny number how many still have the factory paint- probably only mine.

* it is a little lighter than olive, but gloss. Hollywood Green was also available at that time and is more common ( I've only seen one of those and it was a repaint).

Did they call it Glamour Green to distinguish it from the olive drab military green color? I guess its a bit shinier.

Tons of chrome, crotch cooler to hide the mid frame from where I put a Mustang riders seat, backrest and passenger pillion from an FLR FLT on my FLHR, matching Memphis Shades gradient windshield, etched headlight, repainted same color but with unique pin stripe that matches the 61/62 tank badge and lots more. Doubt there is anything else like it on the road and that's the way I like it and why I spent so much money personalizing it.
