My dealer blacked one out and added diamond cut heads and quite a bit of the new HD contrast billet stuff.

Looked pretty pimp. It's definitely an attention getter.

if you were to try to sell it later, you would lose about 2/3 of your potential market. But, then again, you might find that one guy that loves it.

I have the Chrome Yellow over Black 2013 Limited and I think it is about the coolest color out there. You will stand out but thats the point right. I mean the world has enough black street glides right?

Traded the wife's '06 Heritage in last Friday for the Chrome Yellow '13 Street Glide. She loves it. I know that it definitely stands out on the road. I often had trouble seeing her on the blue Heritage, but she is very visible on the yellow 'Glide. She's happy and that's all that really matters!!

I haven't seen the Yellow SG out on the road, but have passed a few of the RGs and saw one parked at the grocery store earlier this passed summer. They look good to me but it's not anything I personally would want to own. If you like it and can get the deal you want, then go for it. Who cares what anyone else thinks?

Pictures don't do the color justice, it really looks good in the sun. But then again, I am on my 6th Harley - all black.

I'm always ready for a stripper's opinion, but they cost more than lawyers these days.

I think the yellow looks great. It really looks good with gray accents.

It's that weird lime green color that bothers me. They had a bagger at California HD on the PCH a few weeks ago. It was almost offensive.

....... the CYP has both the '05ish green pearl & the '09ish orange in it which gives it a different look from every angle when it's in the sun.
........ the SG style absolute mono-chrome scheme lacks something 'outta the box' but provides an open palette for some discrete customization.
