A wise man once said,”You can have any color you want as long as it’s black.”

Agree, had the tins from an 18 put on my 19 at the dealer before I took it home.

I'm kind of an old schooler, been kicking a new bike around for a couple months, saw a wicked red and twisted cherry Road KIng at a local dealership, I knew that was the one. A little negotiating and it's in my garage!

Sharp bike and great choice. Those were my 2 choices in 18 and went wicked red on my road glide special. Twisted cherry wasn't available on the road glide special

I ageee, I think 18 was a much better year for colors. I was thinking about trading up to a 19 but I think I’m gonna wait for 2020 and see what comes out. Thinking about going to a full dress bike from a special. If I don’t like the 20s I’m getting lowers and a tour pack and keeping my 17.

But, alas IMHO the ‘19 colors suck. I always admired the Harley paint, and particularly the 2 tones. But, again IMHO they screwed up the color combinations. Otherwise I must get have a new Ultra Limited or CVO in my garage.
Buy an 18 then.
