I saw a 2013 sparkle green 72 at the dealer. Too much bling for my tastes. It certainly is different, but the thing that came to my mind when I saw it was an image of an elf on a bad acid trip.

Green, for some reason, is supposed to be bad luck on a bike.

Maybe it is Harley's attempt to attract more interest from a different audience? Are they marketing these in San Fransisco or something? Sparkle Gold or Green on a motorcycle is about as anti-harley an image that most people would conjure up when seeing it.
