Default New Mayhem paint sets

What do you think about the limited Mayhem paint sets for the touring line release date Dec 2019? I like them , I'm sure that recent CVO owners are not too pleased.
7 large might seem steep but you get all new tins along with a killer paint job. I don't buy into the theory that limited number paint sets add resale value but that is not why we throw money at our machines.

and that 7 grand does not include a painted inner fairing or fairing lowers either. add those and you'll be up around $10,000.

no thanks. while i loved my cvo, i learned my lesson. anytime you need a painted part, you may as well take out a second mortgage, and then wait for 6-8 weeks for it to arrive. no, my new bike is vivid black, and if i need something, it's cheaper and quicker to get.

Wheels look like tubeless wires (similar to BMW GSA)

At least around here, the dealers require your stock tins as trade in. For 7k I’d think you could get a killer paint job that is a true one off custom

Seeing as how you can get a quality paint job on a car for around the same price, I imagine that $7k comes with a beautiful blonde woman to sit on the back whilst you ride?

But yes, at least here in WI, if I dropped off my bike and wanted it to go from the stock black to *insert wild color here* I'd be looking at well below $4k to completely paint the bike.

Funny how I'm not keen on the wheels but love the paint.

Is that true on all HD numbered paint sets?
