This is my 2001 FLTHC Road King and I want some new hard saddlebags for it. However, they'll need painting and I'm wondering whether this is a standard Harley colour or some custom paint job that I'll need to get matched in order to paint the saddlebags. It's a very dark blue (looks black in some dark lights) and is applied to the tank, both fenders and side panels.

Any ideas?

 

These are the 01 Paint codes:

01
Birch White 90303
Bronze Pearl 62074
Chrome Yellow 84454
Diamond Ice Pearl 37056
Jade Sunglo 3ct 193774/401515
Luxury Rich Blue 193774
Luxury Rich Red 75946
Racing Orange B/C 62685
Real Teal Flash 401419
Suede Green Pearl 400442
Viking Purple/Concord Purple Pearl 52788
Vivid Black 9850
White Highlight Pearl 92151/92152

It might be the luxury rich blue.

 

Not mine. Hope this helps.

 

Hard to tell without the sun shining on it, but it does look like Luxury Rich Blue.

 

 

I'm torn between the Luxury Rich Blue and the Sinister Pearl Blue which, although supposedly ran from 98-00 appears to be a slightly darker shade than the Luxury Rich Blue. Can't say for certain though. I might have a pic of the bike with the sun on it somewhere.

Ain't that the truth - currently grey and miserable at the moment !!

** EDIT **

I managed to find a pic with the sun shining on the bike. This was a rare occasion in England, and we still celebrate this day and it's become known as "Sunday". A truly momentous occasion in the history of this fine country.

 

If you enter your vin at the HD Service Information Portal it will give you the original color.

FLHRC. FLHTC is an Electra Glide Classic, important to know when looking up parts

 

Here in America, we call that.................... BLACK!!

 

It certainly does look black in certain light and the original photos in the advertisment made me think it was black until I saw it in the flesh.

Oops of course. It's a FLHRC !
