Default Electra Glide Standard Serial #

Ok so when I was in the shop last week, I walked by the new Electra Glide Standard. After looking at it close, something caught my eye. See picture below. The sales guy said they are all tagged in this order...lol

I'm sure some at HQ had some explaining to do. It's a one year item as the year will change from K for the 20s, but it will still look like FVC for the nearsighted and "open" minded.

"FVCK" may be the response H-D anticipates when shoppers notice that there is No Heel Shifter and Less Chrome Plating than on the other Touring bikes...

Bought a 19 leftover yesterday. I can confirm that they have that .
As to the heel shifter-its $50. Negotiate for it. I did. If they arent willing to throw that in, they are foolish.
