I wonder what the chances are of two people getting bikes that are the same color? I think that is weird.

Thanks for all the comments ,and yes the pipes are LOUD straight through, slash cuts.Its a problem to know how far to go with the extra,s.My dealer did not want to add the rear bag bars,he said it took away from the clean lines.I have tried to contact Sickshooter ( as on the above ) they have not replied to me .I suppose its a problem for them to ship to the UK.
I would like to add some light to the rear but gues they should be suttle, any input would be appreciated.I bought a Hog tag as you can see from the pictures.

Will keep you all posted of any changes

JJ

John, You have an absolutely fantastic looking bike! I never thought I would like yellow until i saw these 2 and Heather and Sean's, but they look great.
My decision was to go with black, but perhaps in the future, I may go with a color, maybe even yellow, but that will be my decision, just as this was yours.
I don't know how much you paid for your bike, but have a rough idea. However, even if you had purchased the cheapest used Sportster there, the dealer's job is to appreciate your business and do their best to make the bike look like you want it to and have on it what YOU want.
There's a reason why most Harleys don't look exactly alike and that's because we who buy and ride them are individuals with individual styles and tastes. Man, if I had your bike in my garage, my buttons would be busting even more than they are now, and I think I'd be ready to bust anyone that tried to tell me how it should look, especially the dealer.
Be proud, enjoy and put whatever you like on the bike. (Besides, it can always come off and you can prob. re-sell it to someone else who wats to try it.
Sorry to rant, but it just offended me for you and for every other buyer for a dealer to say what looks good and what doesn't! Art
