Got the exact bike at my local dealership. Myself, don't care for the loud colors on the touring machines, but it looked great on a new Wide Glide. I do like the dark green on the tourers.

Limited in Black Magic has same ugly graphic

yes the pogo seat on my '53 is easy on the back.



If you mean Bad Luck...well my bike is accident free and is coming up on 62 years old.


I am Lucky to have it- that's what I think every time I ride it.

I also had a '69 Triumph Tiger in green, but my first choice is always black.

The sports car community has the same superstition, which is why you don't see a lot of green sports cars.
