I feel you pain our tri glide was hit head on in a serious crash it was a custom color that I doubt HD will replace, tri glide is a well built ride it sacrificed its life for ours , we are waiting on doctors and our lawyers now
I'm glad you and your wife are ok,hope the best for you both..

I just took the rider safety course for the 1st time Oct 2018. Picked up a 2010 Iron 883 that Christmas. Started riding in in April (it’s chicago). To no surprise after 1000 miles on the sporty, I needed more. Yesterday I grabbed a “used” 2019 Softail Deluxe with 5 miles (yes five miles). It’s Scorched Orange and IMO a beauty. That orange makes the chrome pop!!
the dealer swore this was a hard combo to find and HD wasn’t making more. I figured it was just a sells tactic. I didn’t care either way as I LOVE this bike. Paid 18.9 and I think retail New was maybe 20.5. Not sure and again don’t care. The value of a bike (or anything) is whatever someone is willing to pay for it. I’m happy with the price and purchase.
I know that seat is hedious. I’m 5’3 and the OEM seat which is nice had me way too far from the controls. That’s a reduced reach seat. It looks like something that sits atop a toilet for a senior citizen, but it serves its purpose. If anyone knows a better looking short reach option please share.
Have a set of V&H Twin Slash slip ons coming next week but no other mods planned. Just want to ride and shine.
Little John! That is a beautiful bike and I like that color. Your not going to see any like it again, is my understanding. I have a 19 Limited in that color.
Enjoy and be safe...
Picked my bike up from the clutch recall at Dubois harley in PA and they have this orange/black in an ultra. I don’t care for it personally but if someone’s looking they got one

Congrats, that bike is beautiful. Sorry about Chicago though, I don't know what I would do without a 12 month riding season.

That color looks awesome on the Deluxe. Congrats.
If anyone is still looking on the East Coast, Bull Run HD in Manassas VA just got 4 in this color last weekend. May be worth checking out.
So after reading this thread, I decided to go down to my local Harley dealer. They have a Roadglide Custom, a Fat Boy and a Trike and because of all you Rat Bastards, I honestly thought about trading my "new" 2018 Road King, that I love.... Just stop the madness!!! Lol Everyone have a great Fourth!!! CSM-H
