Artic Blast SG Special
« on: August 12, 2021, 06:00:13 PM »

HD is coming out with a limited(500)  edition paint job on the SG. At the tune of $39k!!  Almost as much as a CVO. But it sure is pretty!

In my opinion it's actually a good looking paint scheme, but not 7k good looking!  Not sure this limited edition stuff HD is coming up with is worth much except in the eye of the beholder, but I can guarantee that every one of these bikes will be sold before they land. Great business decision by HD.

I like the Gauntlet Gray Metallic/Vivid Black better.

As far as the Artic Blast, I don't think its too bad, as they say in the car business, there's an ass for every seat

How much do you think Gunslinger was paid per set $2,000? More? Less?  Whatever it is I’m sure it’s nowhere near $7,000 and I bet it kills them to see HD sell their artwork for double or triple what they were paid.

I like it ok and would buy it over Vivid Black if it were only $2000 more but $39k is too close to CVO $ for a bike with a lot less upgrades.

$2000 × 500 = $1,000,000.00 probably made it worth their while. :nixweiss:

In view of recent CVO paint, I think, even though way too expensive, it is unique, and desirable. Would I buy one?  Depends on what the 2022 CVO line offers.

There seems to be some inconsistencies in price. One source says $38,xxx another source is talking about $32,xxx. If I was to wager, I would say the $38k price is most likely correct.

$1,000,000 May sound like a lot but doesn’t go very far in a business with skilled laborers (particularly with enough of them to turn out 500 paint sets in a relatively short amount of time)
overhead, taxes, health insurance, paid time off, profit sharing, liability insurance, etc.

So its like the limited paint sets you can buy from HD then add to your bike.  Thing is now, you don't get the original metal like you use to.  good deal for HD but not so good for consumer.

Just got off the phone with my local HD dealer. Bike MSRP is $32,995. Still a lot of coin but gives some spread from a CVO.

The initial shot of that side profile, I was looking sheriff's dept. logo.  I would take the 7K and put it toward a true custom paint job rather than something you just walk in and buy off the shelf.

It may not have been a lot but if they did it there was a profit on top of expenses otherwise they wouldn't have done it. :nixweiss:

It’s good the MoCo is doing different things now with some exclusivity and not flooding the market with same old. The bad news is I’ve never seen dealers with so few bikes and used Harley’s selling for such premiums. Probably some is supply chain issues and some is their new strategy.

I would have rather HD put their efforts into a water-cooled SG, with superior suspension, frame, braking, and infotainment center.  IMO, this is just an expensive paint job wrapped over antiquated technology.
