Harley has, some years, done model releases in the middle of the model year.  Just like the old 64 1/2 Mustang.  The mid year Harley releases have often gotten casually referred to as 1/2 year models.

The .5 is for the guy's that had a hard time deciding to spend that $37,000 :D or they just didn't like the what came out first  :P in the 2011 with Rio red being the faster of the colors it made scents for it to be first. ;D

Ha Ha, that's funny. Yeah, I liked the Black/Orange Street Glide, but I needed that lady to come along and hit my 2008 Street Glide from behind. It just took 10 months for that to happen.

The faster of the colors, huh?!?! That put a smile on my face. I guess I have the slower of the two!
