My thoughts.... my chrome yellow/black Limited was supposed to arrive at the dealer Thursday so you could call that a thumbs up from me. And, I ordered the painted inner too.... I fell in love with the yellow/silver/black CVO Ultra a few years back - same as Yellowbirds RG - but waaaaay outta my price range.

To the Op,

You made the right choice, whether it be a yellow, red, green, black bike. It's the ONE that jumps out to you!

Congrats and enjoy your new scoot,



SilverB,

Thanks for the kind words!

YB

Get the yellow ... if you get laid off you can always pick up extra work as a substitute bus driver!

Yellow it is! Honestly, I made that yellow decision months ago when I saw a yellow SG in maryland at Chesapeake HD.

I started looking a SG's and adding a few gadgets.......next thing the boss said, "why don't you just get this limited", gotta love it when that happens.

I will be shopping for one in about 3 weeks. Already have 2 dealers wanting to quote.......I will have it, just don't know from where yet. (wow are they costly buggers!)

Thanks for the input...from all!

Johnnyboy

I think the yellow is a sharp color. I do not have one, but I can tell you I have nefer had glare isues with my white Ultra. Can not imagine the yellow could be any worse than white.

Get it!
I have the 13 chrome yellow/black ltd., no glare. First yellow bike, but it really
is a sharp combo.

I personally think it's the best color combo Harley put out this year. I am a little biased though

Yellow is one of the all time classic hot rod colors.

No, it doesn't have an uncomfortable glare because it's more of a pearl yellow with the metal flake. Look at the bike in the sun before you buy it. I personally didn't think it had enough reflection, so I didn't buy the bike. I was looking more for the yellow on 2006 (?) road king custom that didn't have metal flake. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful yellow, I just wanted more pop. I also think it will not show dirt.
