Yes, they know, you just have to find one that will tell you.

Paint is one of the few things Harley's got going for it. I see lots of guys salivating over the release of the colors, because even though the bike may not have changed in any meaningful way sometimes just a new color is enough to get them to buy.
I know I tried my hardest to buy a 2022 Pan America Enthusiast Edition with the military green paint; if they hadn'ta sprung a big unexpected fee/tax on me at the last second it would be in my garage now.
Which is to say -- an absolutely killer 1776-2026 250th paint job might get a few of us almost-buyers back in the dealership. That is a really interesting prospect. And 250 years might not have a nice name like "bicentennial", but it's about the last huge America's Birthday that us geezers are ever going to see, so they should strike while the iron's hot.
just hoping the "new" CEO (clone of the old CEO) and designers don't decide that celebrating the 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution means a pride flag, a trans flag, and a picture of Che Guevera.

I had to pick up a few parts Saturday at the dealer. I asked them if they had, or knew the colors for 2026. I was told HD will release carry over models and colors on Oct 31st
I am sure the dealer knows, just didn't want to discuss 26 models. They have couple 23 leftovers still
