I went to Biketoberfest in Daytona with 2 goals. I wanted to ride a 2006 SE UC at the HD demo rides, and I wanted to see the Autumn Haze bike in person to see what the color really looks like. At the demo rides, they had the green '06 SE UC. I didn't care what color it was. I just wanted to see how it handled. I was pleased with it, and my wife loved it. It had good exceleration for a stock bike. After the demo ride, we were walking across the parking lot and spotted an Autumn Haze bike. It is a good looking bike and does look better in person. Something no one had mentioned to me before was the orange flecks in the haze paint. It looks like they mixed orange glitter in the haze paint, because you see hundreds of orange sparkles in the sunlight. It was very sharp. Now, I can't wait for my bike to arrive in December.
