Default The Chlorophyll Phase

HD seems to be passing from the Krylon Phase (i.e. flat black wantonly slathered on everything) to the Chlorophyll Phase (green colors everywhere). I glanced over the new '21's on the web site and I cannot find a single blue hue without green tint (jade, teal, etc). Are bluish bikes slow sellers? No silvers either. I guess the younger SJW's HD longs to bring in are attracted by greens LOL... just kidding don't flame me.

I think Billiard Red is one of the best colors HD has come out with in years. I like it so much I painted my vintage BMW that color.

As long as there's some black on the green bike it cancels out the bad luck.

Red is great, love a red and white bike, colors the MoCo never uses. BTW, just discovered that Carbon Fiber is called "Ducati Chrome" LOL!

Must be part of that new green deal.
Not a fan of green at all, or most of the new colors they have this year.
At least they kept black!
