Def no flake in the paint . In the sun it actually looks kind of whitish. The grey is a more slate color and obviously the emblem is different . I am trying to get him down myself but he is not budging right now. I am not sure if its worth the 12 he wants , what do you guys think ?

That is Harley paint for sure. From personal experience I had to replace the left side of tank and front fender on a '91 turquoise & white FLSTC. Matched perfectly and the bike was 10 years old. That's a great looking bike...ditto on being able to get any chips fixed...should not be a problem with a good painter.

Only you can decide if it's worth it to you.
Personally I love it.

I like the bike a lot its just that I think he's asking a tad much and it is a 94.I am not going to lie I have been riding since I was 17 first with the rice rockets and than ground up customs. I was never into Harley's but I am now 35 and I have seen enough of them to know I can make it look the way I want and be happy. My dad had been a Harley guy forever so I guess its finally rubbing off.

I have two customs now and just want more of a start and go bike without the headaches. I just have really no idea what it's worth other than KBB and Nada. I dont mind paying if I am getting a fair deal. Just not sure if what he wants is fair . Trying to get an idea.

It also seems that it wont be as hard to match the paint as I thought. I just wished I could find more info about how many they made in that color that year.

Any appliance store that specializes in restoring refrigerators from the 50's should have that color in stock.

Thanks

Very similar to a friends bike in Okinawa, Japan.
Sorry, I don't know the year of the bike.

I think it looks like '56 Pontiac Turquoise.
