If this is so, and if the new CEO will be releasing the new colors 6 months b4 the release of the new bikes as in the past....shouldn't the new colors be here by now? Or certainly soon??? (The new colors are imp. to me.)

I'll hold out till hd comes out with a new frame for the touring bikes before trading in my heritage. The Indian pursuits are sweet and ride wonderfully but have been seeing too many electrical problems so riding around on a paid off bike is a good feeling. I thought I might like that apex paint job but in person it did nothing for me. Hd makes great bikes but definitely more bang for the buck with other mfgs

100% confirmed. I just ordered one based on the news. I'll throw it in my basement and bring it out 30 years from now to remind everyone what a "Real Harley" is.

The model year release changed from August to January due to the assembly plant shutdown during the Kung Flu and not necessarily because of the CEO. The new models will roll down the line starting the first week of December and go to a local warehouse until full truckloads are ready. The dealers will have the colors soon if not already so they can place their orders in advance.

Since no one likes any of the colors they currently have, it will be the only color available next year.

As for the colors, you're 1.000% right when you say that the dealers might already have the color chart so they can place their orders (and they do also have knowledge on what's being dropped).
