Fired00d,

You are right.  When I first saw the Green I was taken back.  The Green with the black engine is just BAD A$$.  The wait continues.  My birthday is at the end of January, maybe it will be in by then....

I agree with you totally.... as much as like Orange/Black on Harley's I prefer the Kryptonite more out of the '11 SESG's.... it is "BAD @$$".
 
 
Ride Safe,
Fired00d

Guys, I totally agree.  I was at the dealer show and saw the 2011 bikes 2 days before the dealers got in.  The Kryptonite bike freaked me out, I HAD TO HAVE IT!  The first day of the show, I saw my dealer and he said, "I have one coming in Sept. 17th"  I said, I'll take it  When I got back, I traded 2 of my bikes in figuring......I only have to wait a month.  Now what

Brother, you and I are in the same boat.  I ordered a 2010 Candy Concord back in April and it was to come in end of April.  I sold my 08 SE Ultra in April.  The 2010 came in mid July.  I waited to see the 2011.  I saw the GREEN and that was it.  Last week I sold my Chopper, thinking I had 2 more weeks until my new ride.  NOW I AM F'D!!!!  Our Ocean City, MD Bike week is in 2 weeks and I have NO FREAKIN bike to take.  This suxs!!!!

Well, this explains a lot.  I was at my dealer last Saturday (Aug. 29) and my sales guy told me they had a Kryptonite SESG coming in November/December.  I told him I'd be interested in it and left.  Two days later, they were showing the Kryptonite bike on their web site as "Coming Soon".  Then on Thursday, the Kryptonite bike was off the web page, replaced by an Autumn Haze SESG.  I was ticked, as I thought someone had swooped in and bought the bike out from under me (so to speak).  Now it all makes sense.  I'm hoping the Greenie (as I'm now calling it) is still available;  I wouldn't mind waiting until Spring for it (can't really ride much during NY winters anyway).  Besides, I will be in a much better situation financially next year....

Hey LoneCustom,

Your dealer is Gowanda-Harley-Davidson.  I saw they had a Greenie on cycletrader.  I also saw they had it on their web site.  I called first thing Saturday morning to tell them I will take it.  I spoke to the salesperson and they said that they did not have it and were getting the Autumn Haze instead.  Good luck with the wait....

@wiseasp..........Thank you for posting the letter!!!!!

For me Kermit/ Hulk/ Greenie is best color of the 2011 SESG range. Therefore I will not change to another color.
If there is no other possibility.........I will buy a Honda for my 25th year with Harley!!

Just kidding!

Followed this one ridden by a young lady into the Rapid City Harley shop parking area during Sturgis rally.  Snapped two shots with my cell-phone.  Looked great with matching tour-pak.  Some lucky girl had the only one I saw on the road that week.

Awesome pics.... Thanks for posting !!

Nice pics!!

Notice the manufacturer license plate.

It is official, all orders today were pulled from the dealers allocation list.  Either wait until next year or change the color.  I spoke to 12 dealers today and ALL changed the color to Black/Orange.  I am waiting for sure now.  They are going to make more of the Black/Orange then any color combo now.  I hope it is worth the wait!

HOW MANY MORE?  WON'T BE MUCH OF A LIMITED # THE WAY IT SOUNDS

Guys,

Those of us who wait, will have one of a very select limited edition color combo.  The Blk/Orange will be the highest production color for the 2011 CVO Streetglide, followed by the blk/crimson, the Autumn Haze, then.......KRYPTONITE! This is just my opinion but seems to make sense in light of the letter and the simple fact that most dealers AND customers will change the color to get their bike sooner. I am holding out!

I am with ya brother. My dealer wanted me to change and I told him no I will wait. All the dealers I talked to said they changed the color because they are there to sell bikes NOW!!!!  I hope after all this BS HD makes this color now....

Wise,

"I hope after all this BS HD makes this color now...." This quote of yours, is the only thing that worries me. My biggest fear is that I wait (now that I got rid of both my bikes) and the MoCo decides NOT top make the Kryptonite and I have nothing!

Like I said before G, we are in the same EXACT boat.  I sold both my bikes and now I have nothing.  Worst case is if they do not make the Kryptonite I will just get one of the other colors.  Only time will tell....
