HD Model paint colours and two tones you wished the MoCo would produce ?
#12
Some good comments to ponder. I like the suggestion of Denim Black and Gloss Orange. Think the Orange on Orange would have been a bigger hit with some serious Black to break it up. The Big BLue Pearl was no doubt the popular colour this year, but the Black two tone did not make it jump out at ya, as much as some other colour combs could have, again Blue and Silver, Blue & White, Blue and another metallic black maybe ? As for the pinstripe some like it and some not, I would have preferred a red pinstripe instead of the light blue I have. Really like the midnight pearl, it shows nice in the sun, could even live with the entire bike in that colour. It does seem the colour combos are not well thought out, and design (paint layout) seems to be rather stuck in a couple patterns, although I admit to liking the lines the paint follow on the Ultra Classic, and the Softial Deluxe. Seems they can pull out the stops for the CVO models and think outside the Standard MoCo fare why not a bit of such thinking for the standard models, as they are not exactly giving them away. Not saying the standard fleet requires the entire CVO Paint treatment, but rather some shaking up in the paint dept would be nice.
Thoughts ?

I did my own two-tone ('57 Chevy colors, Sierra Gold and Adobe Beige).
What probably got me thinking along those lines was the Turquoise/White combo that came out a couple of years ago.
But, then again, part of what I like about this combo is that there probably isn't another trike like it.

Some great ideas.....
Black denim + Orange (less, not more) or black denim + Big Blue Pearl would absolutely POP in the hands of talented artists...
Also, I agree with the idea to completely leave off pinstripes. Since it is under the clear, you are stuck with that color scheme unless you redo tins entirely... It would be nice to have a blank template...
