Default White bikes matter
I have had many bikes and all different colors. Black 4, grey 2, orange 3, white 1. of all the bikes i have owned, none have got more comments than The White Horse. I hear it a lot, " man that is a good looking bike" It wasn't my favorite color when I bought it but it has grown on me. I think I like white better than the other colors. It's a 2012 White Hot Pearl...

good looking bike - - what kind of seat is that? Is it more comfortable than the stock seat?

It's a Harley seat, ordered it from catalog. It's a great seat in my opinion. This is the 2nd bike I have had it on. The back is high enough you really don't need the backrest. Thanks for the comment....

Thanks, the white bikes look good with chrome. Everybody wants to be all black. I like white and chrome.

I know what you mean op. Two years ago I bought my Heritage down in Beaumont TX flew down and rode it home and I was stunned how many people commented on the bike on the ride home.

I took a Heritage out for a ride at the Rally this weekend and I was very impressed about how nice it handled! Rode a Deluxe first with no shield and then the Heritage with a shield and I couldn't believe how nice a ride the shield made the ride and how well the Heritage rode!
Your Heritage is a very sweet looking ride!
