It may look good but I think it's a crock what the MoCo is doing! Varience in lowers and rear fenders, what about when a you go to sell it. Dude asks why the lowers are red when it's suppose to be black or your rear fenders black and should be red and you tell him it came that way. What would you think? I would think something stinks about it just like I think about the MoCo now! I'm just saying.... ;D

No offence intended, but the dark rear fender looks out of sync. While the Rio Red lowers on the other CVO seem to match the color flow. Although the real issue here is the lack of quality control. This kind of stuff harkens back to the 70's and 80's. GM, Ford and Chrysler seem to have gotten their quality control closer to today's standards while HD appears to be going back to their dark ages.  
Back in the 80s a friend bought a new GMC pick up truck.  Had it a couple days before someone asked him why the tailgate said Chevrolet.  Oops!  :huepfenlol2:

You must be relieved.

Then I'm sure it's a great looking bike... Looking forward to you posting pics of your new ride.  ;D

Chris, I belive in the UK they are supposed to have red lowers. They look really nice that way. Only heard of 1 person with a Black rear fender. Since I'm in the middle of the USA, mine should of have black lowers. I lucked out and got an oddball with red lowers. Enjoy the new bike. Your gonna love it. Rick

Checked with dealer today about missed matched color on lowers. Said resale could be issue and would check with moco on correct color

Mis-matched colors could lower resale However I didn't buy this bike to resell but to enjoy. My bike was brought in from out of state and I bought it sight unseen. I ask my buddy a day before I picked it up around how much it would cost to get the lowers painted red. We decided it would be cost prohibited. Went to pick it up and he was the one who noticed it already had red lowers on it. He said something to my salesman about it and was told "they are all like that". Bet you never heard that from a harley dealer before HUH? I never mentioned it because I wanted red lowers anyway. Seems like this bike was meant to be mine and I really like it.
