that light blue really needs a mary kay cosmetics sticker on it. way too gay a color for a harley in my opinion. now the cobalt blue in the mid to late 90's, that blue was mighty cool, but that light blue??? it belongs on a smurf or a toyota prius.

I like the red.... really POPS in the sunlight...... I'd have to actually SEE the blue in person.
I thought "Smokey Gold" was the worst color for a bike...... until I saw my bike in person....
but then... most folks who own and ride a FLTR, aren't concerned about the opinons of others

H-D has had a big push the last couple of years to get the female population on bikes, maybe the pastel colors are aimed at them.
