Yellow and pink, stay away from that combination.
You will never find boots or a purse to match.

Get what you want. Why care what strangers may think. Life is less complicated with this approach. If you yourself think it a difficult color to live with, then don't get it.

My bike is yellow. I was not a yellow fan, but I am okay with it because I absolutely got the bike I wanted. And the color has grown on me. Of course you may have a hard time flying under the radar with a yellow bike, but it is easier to find your bike in a crowded lot.

As long as you don't match your helmet, you're ok.

Local dealer had one on the floor a few months ago. I thought it looked pretty slick. It was sold in a week. To a chick? Maybe. Who cares?

Put one of these on it and you'll be fine.

In all seriousness, I like yellow bikes. There is somebody on here with a yellow RG and that thing is beautiful.

Buy it if you like it. Yellow is the second fastest color.

I love the look of yellow Harleys and chrome. Looks awesome, I think.

I've seen the same Heritage - go for it.

"What to do"...simply buy it! It takes a man to ride a yellow harley No, really I like mine 'cause around here I'm not even sure if I've ever seen another one that color.
But there is one problem w/that color...you can't stop any where 'cause everybody knows that you're there. Or as I say, I can't hide any where
