'01 FXDWG2, the Red was the only color for me, as the poster says:
"Cars have to be upside down and on fire to get this much attention"
'05 FLHTCSE2, I originally wanted an '04 O/B or the '05 Teal but ended up getting the '05 Crimson and even though the Crimson seems to be the most prevalent color I really like it! (The '05 is still my favorite all around bike of all I have ever owned or ridden!!) (don't tell the folks on the RGF LOL!!)
'09 FLTRSE3' I originally wanted the O/B (I have an '04 F-250 HD O/B) but the Electric Orange had pearl in it and (to me) didn't match like the '00 O/B did. A friend of mine offered to sell me his '00 for $18k in '04 (still kicking myself over that one!!) I got the Yellow and REALLY LOVE THE COLOR! To me the Yellow looks a whole lot better in person, the pics don't do it justice when the flake changes color in the sunlight.
These are just my personal observations on the bikes I choose to own. The MoCo has continued to amaze me over the years on the paint schemes they come up with on production bikes. I personally prefer a lot of the HD paint over many of the custom jobs I have seen.
