Appreciate that! I'm waiting on a PM offer from some takeoffs a forum member has offered me. Hopefully it works out. If not, anyone else with OEM 14+ LR mid control takeoffs that want to make a sale, just PM me.

Thanks!

You are the first to voice a dislike of the red color. We all have different color tastes. I think it looks great. Good contrast with the black pieces and the silver chrome.

I am not sure any purple LR owner ever posted in this thread. I like that color too.

I also think the red looks great. I would have preferred red but got a screaming deal on the vivid black because the dealer had 3 of them to sell at the end of the season.

Sooner or later, I'll probably custom paint my tins red metallica of some kind and leave the frame black.

Even though my bike is kind of red (candy clear coat), I'm not a big fan of the Harley red either. I believe if the tank logo and pin stripe had of been black, it would have looked much better.

Any LR or LR S owners ever actually see a purple LR on the streets?

I think color preference is up to what you like. If it looks good to you ride the wheels off. All Harley's don't have to be black. Just my opinion

If I hadn't bought my bagger I had planned on painting my 14 LR red.
