I should have asked for 2005 as well, but in my short-sightedness, did not.  Maybe someone with an '05 can send a letter to H-D to find this information out for the other year.  I think it only took about 3 weeks at the most to get a reply.  If you want the letter I sent as a reference, I can post that, too.  I did include my VIN numbers in the letter to add legitimacy to the request, which, of course, I would not have been able to do for an '05.

'06 SEUC owners will recognize the name of the Customer Service Rep. who responded from their dealings with the MoCo on paint issues.  Note that the second color referenced is an '05 color combo.   I am sure he meant "Orange Pearl / Jet Black" instead of "Yellow Pearl / Platinum Mist."

Thanks for that info Brian. Makes waiting the nine months for my worth it now knowing there are less of them then the B/B.

BTW - That's only 104 over the projected 2750 they said would be produced.

Why couldn't it have been 103, instead?

It's obvious they can't count.

Still a rare model in either color compared to the CVOs that they're making now.

Thanks Brian for posting that.

Good poop there Brian. Thanks.

thanks 103tHunDer!  I guess we can trust the rest of the info in the letter (since the color of the pumpkin was in error)......I see a blue million of the huckleberrys now, but in a few more years, they'll just disappear from the roads.  That's what happened to my '94 Nostalgia......they were everywhere, and now I only see rarely.  Good historical data, though.  thanks, spyder

Not to take away from the fact that I appreciate them supplying this information, but yeah, there were some misspellings in there, too ("identifiaction," "they're were," and "Road Glides Built" [capital "B"] to name a few), which makes you wonder , but it's as good as we got until someone comes up with something else!

 Has anybody requested the 2005 production figures yet ? If not, I'd be willing to send the letter. Brian, could you PM me how to go about it ?

Bill, I'm not aware that anyone has.  PM me your e-mail address, I'll send you the letter I wrote, you can edit to add your information and then send.  It'll be a painless exercise that only costs 5 mins. and $0.41 and before you know it more interesting information about these awesome bikes will show up in your mailbox.

[70_GTX]

Done.

[110tHunDer]

Done.

Just sent it to you, Bill.  Thanks for doing this.  I look forward to finding out what they tell you about the '05s!

[70_GTX]

 Just got back from mailing the letter.

Hey Brian,

Next time you are in Maggie Valley make sure you get a picture on Huckleberry Lane.

Very fitting location, intersects Rt 19 (aka Soco Rd) just before the BRP on the western side of town.

Any other Brian's reading with B&B's?
