I spoke to a friend of mine who has a few VERY good friends at Harley corporate and the Kryptonite MIGHT be a no go.  He said that they might pull the color.  If I hear some more info I will let you guys know.  So far everything he has told me has been 100% on track, even this info I got on these bikes being delayed even longer.  Some wrote here that no such thing, but the proof is in these calls we are getting from our dealers.  This SUCKS!!!!  >:(

Wow.  That would be amazing.  It amazes me that this can be a paint problem.  How can a company this size not do their homework before releasing a color?  Arthey painting in house or farming it out?  Either way, how can you not have this together?  On the bright side for others, maybe this means there will be a SESG3, assuming they can work out their problems and try the color again for 2012.  I hope so, I think the color is definitely a head turner.  Good luck to you Wiseasp.

This company runs the opposite of the business creedo of "under promise and over deliver"....continually, it is the only thing they are consistent on.

Sigh......and the beat goes on... :-\

Any news on Kryptonite? I know other colors are being delivered, but not green yet, right?

Hey Stan.

Looks like the Street Glide is the bike everybody wants so far. Toronto Harley has a 2011 CVO Road Glide and a CVO Convertable on the floor. They even have a brand new 2009 CVO Road Glide. 1 CVO Ultra is coming too.They will be getting 3 SG's. Mine being the first (which was swapped for an orange and ordered on July 27) and 2 greens already sold. I do not think they will be getting anymore  :nixweiss:

That's the scoop from the eastend of Toronto.

No business can afford to write of 1000 plus bike sales due to paint issues.  There's heads rolling someplace right now.


Remember the '02 SERK's?...very few red ones were built/shipped due to paint problems. Orders were filled with purple/silver.

so if there's a problem with the Diamond Black paint, my question is would the bikes all ready delivered have issues?  mine has a swirling issue and always has.  no matter what I do or what I use to wash it.......the black swirls.

I was just at Rocky's Harley in London yesterday and mine is slated to be shipped this thursday. I ordered the black diamond. They told me the kryptonite is flaking off. They are not sure why and still are working on the issue. All other bikes supposedly are being built. Kitchener Harley just confirmed 2 more ordered for April and they are still for sale if you guys are interested. I believe orange and black is one of them.
Can't wait to see mine.   ;D

What I heard from my dealer in Cairo is that the Krypto was supposed to be shipped out first then it was switched to Inferno Orange that i originally ordered. Lucky me  :pepper:
Still didnt get my bike though; 4 to 6 weeks of waiting are due..... :jack:

I used mcguires gold wax and only the micro cloths. No more swirls.
