Default Tequila Sunrise/Orange '12 Street Glide

The Tequila Sunrise is too bass boat flake for me, and the orange doesn't work well as a second color; the saddlebags don't match; and the tank decal doesn't work well with the paint color IMO--other than that, beautiful bike.

If this bike floats your boat, it's available at Killer Creek HD in Rosell, GA and just arrived. I'll get some better pics tomorrow.

EDIT: Replaced some of the pictures, including one of the rear to show the mismatched saddlebags.

Yep, my reaction as well. Like the Copperhead Pearl/Red Hot combo from a couple years ago and Sedona Orange much better.

I love that paint job, but then I love Psychedelic Purple. Both very custom looking colors. No other bike company does it like Harley Davidson! They have something for everyone!

Is this supposed to be the 2012 version of Sedona Orange? I'm not feeling it either.....but then who's to say I have good taste.

I was going to get one of those, but I liked the Sedona Orange 2011, and got a better deal on it. I'm glad I didn't wait for the 2012.

....... the tank decal & 2 tone paint makes it look a lot like an EG Standard.
.... but I can see the future there in the upper left of image 3, ... .... a future RGU in 2 tone yellow Chrome/Pearl !
......... i'm sure hopin' that Pikes Peak Harley starts getting some of these interestingly colored '12's in .... i'm gettin' bored w/leftover '11's.

..... and i'm thinking that the saddlebag on the left is the one that's s'posed to be on it. The pinstripes line up w/those on the sidecovers .....
