From what I hear the next generation will be called “Python Spit”.

This is not the think the MoCo discusses prior to the dealer meeting. My guess is they won’t do it again.

If you want Snake Venom, buy a factory model that has it, check to used market, or find a painter. They call it "chameleon" in the painting industry and it comes in numerous variations.

I'm glad they didn't repeat that. Makes it kind of special for folks that paid for it. I like that it was put on many different models other than CVOs too. That was a very well done paint job. I wasn't in the market or I would have picked up a Road King special with it.

It was interesting, but way too ghetto for my taste.

I love the color so much, I traded the burgundy red 2020 RKS that I also loved, just to get that color. I for one am glad it was a one year only color. I have only seen one other snake venom RKS in my area, and a couple snake venom SGS's and RGS's. Not to be selfish or anything, but I hope it remains a one year only color. I can spot my bike in 2 seconds in a sea of Harley baggers in the parking lot of a rally.

Why not just get a used bike with the color on it? Nobody knows if HD would do it again. Doubt it.
