that's f'ugly!

walkin 01-09-2010 12:24 PM

Well it might appear to you bit weird as you rarely see these colors on a bike.

But for an Indian, it means a lot as these 3 colors represent the Indian National Flag.

Its surely a priced possession for any Indian :-)

So. hope you understand the emotions involved !!

skipper469 01-09-2010 12:51 PM

Well this is an American forum and I don't care where it's at or where it's from. It makes me wish I were color blind!

jason628 01-09-2010 01:23 PM

Greetings,

It's different...While not for me, I'm sure it would go over well in India. Harley needs the business over there, that's for sure.

Gman in NC 01-09-2010 01:28 PM

Lot of color. That's for sure. I'm starting to get a little tired of flames though.

harley57 01-09-2010 01:36 PM

Thanks for taking the time to post the picture. I kinda like it...

walkin 01-09-2010 01:40 PM

@ Jason

I agree with you.

Though the price is many times higher than most of the current bike models available in the country right now but it will surely find many takers in India.

Harley Davidson is moving very aggressively in this new Market. They have announced a total of 12 models in this region.

Leisure Riding is going to move one step ahead in India after Harley coming in !!

Danny D 01-09-2010 04:02 PM

Yeah, it looks OK but I'll bet it's kinda slow, because evryone know black is the fastest color.

Heinous color scheme to me.

ski917 01-09-2010 04:09 PM

Remember the scene in the movie 1941 when they drive the tank through the paint factory ?? Kinda looks like the Fatboy was right behind the tank ! ..lol It's different that's for sure. lol

:icon_werd:

:icon_sultan: can they wrap the tank in a towel so I dont have to see it anymore???

bikermama 01-09-2010 05:36 PM

Yuck!!!!

Danny D 01-09-2010 09:04 PM

People at the HD factory get paid lots of money to come with paint schemes like that. Don't they? Did they?

One of the things my company does is paint houses and I've always said, "Color blind people shouldn't buy paint on sale!"

Hope they done their homework over there...I could see different paint jobs for different parts of the world.

hpfatboy 01-10-2010 04:46 AM

Nothing surprises me from over there, :icon_no: just missing the little furry dingle balls hanging all over it!!! I'LL PASS!!! :icon_poop:

rockercsx 01-10-2010 08:29 AM

I'm sorry but that is one ugly bike :icon_toliet:

back again 01-10-2010 09:02 AM

Could you make that picture a little bigger I'm having a hard time seeing it.

WarriorHD 01-10-2010 09:11 AM

Nice bike for those who like those weird colors mixed. Had no clue Indians were into Harleys. Wonder if Harley is going to make clogs and robes for India...HD dots would be cool too...lol

aviator 01-10-2010 09:17 AM

sure, wait for their Motor Clothes catalog.

tk353 01-10-2010 09:29 AM

i little to rainbow for me. next they will have a matching jacket

GymRat523 01-10-2010 10:36 AM

very ugly but if you can pic colors you could make it look pretty nice.

BigSeaDaddy 01-10-2010 10:40 AM

Get a matching helmet and they can be Captain India!!!!!

agapsdiver 01-10-2010 11:00 AM

I'm glad Harley is trying to go big in India..
Any U.S. exports are good for the country and
good for Harley..

09heritagerider 01-10-2010 12:10 PM

I guess they do what they have to do to survive...that is a precious rainbow on the gas tank though...

walkin 01-10-2010 12:48 PM

Probably the only sane comment down here, Color wise I agree not my taste, but some of the sarcastic comments making fun of indians were a bit surprising ;).

I mean, those people for sure do not understand what the words "Trade deficit" mean !, cause if they did, they would think twice before making fun of a nation that produces more than it consumes ! , and holds the title of the worlds 'Oldest Democracy' to boot :).

hell, they already have every call center. now they can have HDs too..... think they'd be interested in a slightly used president????

klf33 01-10-2010 08:58 PM

This thread is going to move to the Political discussion part very soon :) LOL.

And I never go there, there is already a bounty on my head :)

I think your the one who is lacking sanity. We are not bashing the Indians! We are simply expressing our distaste for the bike paint scheme. The gentleman who spoke of call centers for american companies in India put it best. One of the reasons patriotic Americans are so upset, is the fact that our money and lack of labor is going to support other countries such as INDIA. Let them have their paint scheme! Hooray for them. Who cares. We need to be worrying about AMERICA dude!! I think the paint scheme is horrid!! It just my OPINION.... If you want to get political, go to the political forum.

Blk and Chrome 01-10-2010 09:29 PM

I would like to see it with differnt colors, the design could be nice maybe. They like bright colors there, and as was said already, can't wait for the motorclothes for India

[quote=aviator;6076629]hell, they already have every call center. now they can have HDs too.....quote]
you are such an idiot.

what does having your call centers in india have to do with indians also getting HDs?

and it is hilarious how you all attack the dude who is trying to show the new avenues an American Company is venturing into.

2% of the people on this board seem to have a functional brain. It is a big step for harley to come to India where the spending capacity of an individual is constantly increasing. Lack of space on the roads in india increases the sale of motorcycles, and besides that India is home to some of the most adventurous cruises.

Flame more you republican narrow minded homos.
all you ever do is bitch anyways.

Nickrc3 01-11-2010 06:41 AM


that's f'ugly!
+1, unless your some rabid University of Miami fan.

Hey everybody! Look at this enlightened individual calling us all "republican narrow minded homos"...you're so much smarter than us dude. I think you should have your own forum where you can discuss world issues with other people that possess "functional brains."

Wow,talk about outdoing yourself HD ! Never seems to amaze me how they really think this is a Hot New Color scheme.I think they should of looked around in India a little harder to get a clearer picture of what they are dealing with.

Maybe you should have looked up "INDIA" before you posted the above!
