Title: For fun what do y’all think is the best color rg
Post by: Gandrtravis on January 06, 2019, 02:54:28 PM
I have a 18 gunship grey rg been looking at cvo rg for a long time wanted one in 14 but they didn’t have a cvo Till 18 couldn’t afford one in 13 but I really likes the green brown sorry I know that’s not the actual color name. I still theink the 12 maple matallic might be the best color sheme imo or maybe the 09 yellow Screamin eagle. Interested what you guys think.

in 2013, it wasn't brown/green.  it was gold and green, aka roman gold/burnt emerald.  and the burnt emerald is an awesome green, in my biased opinion.  I like the yellow that they had in 2009 (I think), and of course the 2012 colors were all 3 awesome.  last years gunship gray is cool as well. 

for 2019, I thought I really liked the mako.  until I actually saw it in person yesterday.  I like it as blue to black fade, but if you move, the blue turns to purple, which I didn't really care for.

the two gray colors are super sharp though, the silver/gray and the red/gray.  I would sport either of them :D

Ya the green emorold and gold was sweet I wanted that bike but didn’t end up getting a new bike till 14 and went with the trible orange and black rk becusse their was no rg cvo in 14. I think if I got a 13 rg id probably still have it they ride so nice I have only rode my 18 but I love it.

I love my gunship shark but I still remember parking in the sun and staring at the rear end of the '09 electric orange....my first CVO. That thing drew a crowd everywhere...

Gunship is the best color I have seen come from Harley in a long time,only reason I bought a new one. Compliments on it everywhere and most sought after color in a long time by people searching for a used one....at least in my neck of the woods. Customizes are trying to copy it everywhere. My 2 cents.. :soapbox:

I agree about the Mako -   I was super jazzed about it until I saw one at a Mfg Test Ride event.  The bike had a light coating of dust on it and looked terrible.    All I could think about is how I would go nuts trying to keep it clean!

Wondering if you had a 13 cvo rg how do you think it compares to the 19-19 with the air vents in the new fairing did you notice a big difference ? I’ve Not had the chance to ride one myself.

I like the 09 color combos (all 3 of them).
Then I would have to go with the silver/grey or red/grey on the 19's.

I had an 09 CVO RG, and a 12 CVO RG.  Both the say style as the 13 CVO RG.

I have also had a 15 CVO RGU, 18 CVO RG and 19 CVO RG.

Yes I think the vents do make a big difference.  I think it is a real improvement.  Even bigger improvement if you have lowers.

A bit biased but...

1. Skunk
2. 19 Silver/gray
3. 13 Emerald/Roman
4.  12 Cobalt
5.  09 yellah

The 19 silver/gray is very sharp, if I had a spare 50k laying around.
