I apologize, questioning your manhood was not my intent. It just seems these colors, and their names, are contradictory to the market they are trying to court.

Funny, I had a Scarlet Red RG. When it was in the sun people would say nice orange bike. I just told them I thought it was green.

Signed, satisfied new Fugly convert.

I can't see how anyone can mistake the Laguna Orange for red. I will say this about that color, I have never seen a picture that does it justice. No picture I have seen comes close to seeing that color in person.

Couldn't agree more. Went in on a Saturday to just see the color in person came back Sunday and rode it home.

I agree. This whole thing is weird. It's orange, actually a really cool looking orange. Not red....

Coming next year to a Harley dealer near you: the bike of your choice in Arterial Spray Red, Stolen Soul Black or Cringing Cager Yellow.
