I am also considering this the new colors will be released in June/July. With them hitting the floor in July/Aug.

Might still end up going with the blue because it is a bad *** color. Plus if I wait a few months I can save up more cash for mods. Bars and exhaust are going to be the first things to go pretty much right away.

I was thinking the exact same thing LOL Seriously though, if you were happy enough with the bike before he got one, don't let that stop you. If it makes you happy go for it. Why should you let what someone else does govern what you do?

If they can't find one would you still go with the blue? We both have bald shaved heads too. Just my luck. Guess there is also new colors in July with the 2013's hit.
If you found the bike you like - BUY IT - and if you are really all that worried about the similarities between you and the new guy you can always - change your name & wear a wig - that should eliminate any confusion!

The more I see the red, I wish I went with it over the blue. It has the same metallic flake, its just brighter.

......... cover yours w/more Willie G skullstuff than he has, so the rest of the crew can tell ya apart.
................ just so you don't start hugging in the parking lot.
..... of course, you could also do the really smart thing, and get a BBP Road Glide. NOBODY will mistake you for him ever again !

I heard they are shifting their timing on new bike releases to later in the summer.
