When I was inking the deal on my 2012 FLTRX yesterday my dealer showed me the 2013 color palette.

The dealer and I kicked around an option of me ordering a 2013 if I liked any of the 2013 colors better. Colors for the 2013 FLTRX are vivid black, big blue pearl, denim black and a candy orange (its the orange version of big blue pearl).

I think I saw the Street Glide gets a chrome yellow pearl (yellow pearl with metal flake) and a candy red; however I didn't pay too much attention to the SG as I was looking specifically at the RGC colors. Obviously vivid black and denim black were part of the SG color options as well. I don't remember if big blue pearl was a SG color this year. Sorry SG owners that I didn't pay more attention.

The 2013 colors looked pretty cool if you are into the pearl colors.

Also my dealer advised the Nightster and the XR1200 were gone for 2013. No other details on what is going away.

They said the 2013 anniversary color scheme and option package had not been released yet. Also no mention of the revolution engine (water cooled) entering into the touring line but they didn't know everything yet.

Just sharing...your local dealer should have the 2013 colors in house now.

 

Three out of four of the same colors for the RGC, two years in a row. Nice...

 

When they come back with a colbalt or flame blue again,I will be trading. Till then,nothing really stands out,hard to go wrong with black though.

 

I have a 2010 RK in flame blue pearl and it looks nice and there are not too many of them out there.

 

There are a few here...lol

 

I just hope they get rid of the striping & put proper tank badges on the RGC.

Thanks.

That sheet has the XR1200 shown. I wonder if my dealer is just talking smack.

 

Had a guy tell me one time that school busses are yellow, fire engines are red, and motorcycles are black. Don't know if I agree, but it does simplify things.

 

Nice!
