Here in gorgeous sunny Southern California these colors look fantastic out in the sunlight. Personally, I think HD is doing great by experimenting with new colors. Some of these (most) will work, perhaps one or two will not. I've liked all of the 2018 bikes and colors that I have seen.

Hey, that's no joke ...we have to live with this blooming weather

but seriously, I think you are right, your weather does impact on choice of colour.

Your bike is GORGEOUS, bb!! Let's see now, I am spotting the beautiful Defiance floorboards and passenger pegs along with smoked tail light lenses. Anything else going on? How about a picture of the other side of that scoot? Love it.

Ahh, yes, the grips and the docking hardware as well. If you have a rack and / or sissy bar, I'd (OK, WE'D) love to see a pic with that also. Just lovely!

I'll grab some more pics and post in my thread. Waiting on a few things that will be here Thursday! I do have the standard sissy bar and my seat is going to a local upholstery shop on the 3rd for a little work.

Wicked Red/Twisted Cherry is my favorite color on the Fat Boy. So much so I got one sitting in the warehouse with a sold tag on it and hopefully can pick it up Friday.
