Orange is for 70's hot rods, not collector Harley's.  Having said that, I almost bought the Orange one but my girlfriend pulled my leash and said NO!  :(

Once and for all, YELLOW is best, fastest, most distictive, classic and fastest!   That's fastest, twice.

And by looking at all the beers you've had, I could understand how you might feel that way. But, you know orange is always faster, that's why Harley paints the race bikes that color..... :huepfenlol2:

I also thought that there is to much orange when I first bought the bike. Now all I notice is that the black ones are real plain. Don't even notice the orange when I'm riding and when it's parked it looks great.

Got a question for the 'd00d.  Is it not correct that the official Harley colors are black and orange?  I don't remember it being silver or yellow or any other sissy color. 

BTW, just because it's the official color doesn't make it fastest.  That would still be the RED ONES! ;D

ok, you went and did it, used the sissy word, to that my friend I say  :sauer021:
while at ES, HDBrads wife saw my bike and and told him " you should've gotten the Silver". score one for Silver
When someone says the color of the orange or yellow one they give the full color description, but to us, It's Silver.
the orange looks like the great pumpkin, charlie brown. the yellow looks like the "short bus". but of the owners of those two Colors want to  :sauer024: then fine. But which one is on the cover of the magazine, nuff said.
I would not have gone there until I saw the S word, then off come the gloves.

Sorry Larry, but silver is what we used to paint the cars in the factory when we ran low on the good colors.  And I assume the reason the silver one was on the cover of the magazine was that all the other colors were sold out and they only had silver sitting around.

Oh I remember that comment. HDBrad looked truely wounded.  :'( Then looked around saw there were witnesses so he took no action!  ;D

Silver does make a nice accent color. And Black plain??? No wonder you go by Weasels.

I love yellow motorcycles.My fatboy is also yellow and i had a yellow sportster.I had a black VRSCR and a blue goldwing that i sold but if i couldve get them in yellow id rather have them yellow as well.I love the open space effect that it creates its seems like theres acres of room in front of me while im riding.
Well what can i say i love yellow ones and Mickey also had a few of them at one time heres the link.
