Have seen it. Appreciate it. Wouldn't own it for myself. If I got one for free, I'd probably go black with the accents and look for some sort of pinstripe or graphic to break up the yellow. Would not paint the inner fairing (don't think I could tolerate that starting at me), would leave black or do vivid black inner.

Every time I see a yellow touring bike I get wood! But I realize this is a Harley touring forum and for the most part the prevailing wisdom is "Black is bootiful". Anything else, not so much.

I have the 13 limited chrome yellow and black and love this bike.I think the black makes it pop a lot more than the all yellow. Never thought I would own a yellow bike but this
color looks great in the sun.

If it would not have cost so much to turn it into an Ultra, I would, have purchased it. If the Ultra LTD in yellow was available last year, that would have been my choice as well. I just like yellow cars and bikes. Don't know why...but it has to be bright.

I have the 2013 chrome yellow pearl and love it. I did the painted inner fairing and lots of chrome. People either love the color or hate it, I could give a f****. I didn't go with the black accents cause I didn't want to look like a bumblebee.

We have had 3 of them, the first two sold within days, the third hasn't sold yet just because it doesn't have cruise. We got it in dealer trade. I don't know why they would order it without cruise, but they did.
