Default "Custom Color" bikes????

I purchased an '07 UC with the"custom color" Jake and Elwood Blue Sunglo. I am curious just how "custom" these colors are? There were two other "custom colors" this year and I am curious about production numbers for these bikes, any ideas???

Thanks

SAM

No idea, often wondered the same thing. I don't see a lot of the custom colors on the road though.

If it's an unlimited number of sets you may see some here and there. If it's a numbered set the chances of you seeing another one is rare.

I've got the J&E Blue UC also.... I've only seen one other, and it was the other one the dealer had ordered... I love the color, looks great on the bike. They have 4 custom colors per year... 1 each quarter... I'd be interested to know how many they made also.

Each dealership gets one of each model with the custom color. I have the Scarlett Red and Charcoal from 06 and I've only seen one other at Myrtle Beach.

I heard something like that - but one dealer I checked with did not. I bought the burgundy/creme Ultra last month in St Aug after seeing one in Gainseville. I checked in Jax, and they didn't have one. Ironically, they called me today and said they just got one in. Kind of strange for a color produced only Jan-Mar. Guess that adds to the mystique of how MOCO / dealers operate.
