So my dealer called and said they can get me a blue in a week if I want to switch from the Silver/brownish I have on order. The Silver is due end October, beginning December.

If I switch I can get a few thousand miles in before the snow in Mid November.

I like all three colors but never considered a blue version.

Would you switch?

IMO

 Go with the color you want, don't settle for what you can get. You will own the bike for at least a couple of yrs, you can wait for what you want.

 Like i said , jmho

I think my problem is that I really don't love any of the colors for 14, they are just okay

Then why get anything right now?

If you like the color and If Harley is still offering 2.9% interest for 5 yrs. if your going to finance do it before the interest rate goes up.

I was 3rd on the list for blue at my local dealer. Another dealer got a blue one in and I jumped on it so I could get the interest rate. The good rate suppose to end at the end of October.

My dealer said I was right for jumping on the bike since the interest was good and I might have to spring till they got the color I wanted. They couldn't even guarantee my color that far out.

Good luck on what decision you decide. I test rode 2014 silver one at 110 anniversary and really liked the silver but The wife loved the blue.

You're dropping 40k why settle. Wait for the color you really want. I saw the blue in person, didn't care for it and blue is my favorite color

He doesn't "really want" any of 'em. 

Night as well get the first one you can get if you're indifferent to the color.

Colors for me has become more difficult yet easier.  The following is my perspective on my past color choices:

2010, We bought the Blue SESG, reminded me so much of my 2004 SEEG...but the Capt. Morgan colors were also calling me but the Blue gave me such good memories of the SEEG then Ironically, the Tequila is the one I've seen the least of so now I wish I had that color instead of the Blue!

2008, We bought the Duracell color SEUC.  Was a somewhat easy choice as it was the only one on the dealer floor when our 2006 SEUC broke down at the Sedona GTG and it was the Anniversary color scheme...if you asked me today, I could not tell you the other colors that year.

2006, We bought the Black/Gray SEUC, it was the color we wanted at the time and knew we wanted it and nothing else would do...but today, I find the Autumn haze a much nicer color scheme.

2004, We bought the Blue SEEG, my first true fairinged bagger....Blue being our favorite color it was going to be Blue and it had to be blue...But as I ride the roads, the Pumpkins of that year stand out to me and are just more vibrant and alive.

2003, I (Yes, in this case it was not a WE purchase) bought an SED...Anne and I saw it about two weeks before my BD.  I said to her if it is still on the floor in two weeks on my BD I was going to buy it when we could not get a S/B Anny Ultra.  Well, truth be told, that night I called the dealer and told them I would take it and will be back in two weeks (on my BD) to pay for it and pick it up.  Low and behold, it was still there on my BD   and it is still in my Garage today.  That year there was only one color choice making the choice easy.


So what does this all mean?  Who knows but in the end I never regretted any of our color choices but in hindsight now I know I would have liked having the color(s) we didn't get in many cases.  Since I can't buy one of each color I have decided to get the first color available because in the end, I know I will end up coveting the other colors.

Took delivery of the blue bike. It is beautiful in my opinion. I did not expect it to look this good.

Crap, now I feel obligated to keep it clean to

Contrary to some -- the BLUE bikes are faster.

Saw a blue '14 CVO limited in the flesh at a PA dealer and it is sweet looking, only problem is no flames....which also will make the bike faster
