HARLEY-DAVIDSON DEBUTS SPECIAL EDITION TWO-TONE PAINT OPTION FOR ROAD GLIDE® SPECIAL MODELS

Factory-Installed Custom Paint Available in Two Stunning Options
 
MILWAUKEE (March 2, 2020) – Harley-Davidson debuts new Special Edition Two-Tone Paint options featuring a patriotic flair and highlighted by the bold “Number One” logo in red and blue on the fuel tank. The new Special Edition Two-Tone Paint options are only available as installed at the Harley-Davidson factory on the Road Glide® Special model.
 
Factory installation offers the customer an attainable custom paint option that eliminates the need to either re-paint the original components or install an accessory paint set that leaves take-off painted parts on the shop floor. The Special Edition Two-Tone Paint options meet demanding Harley-Davidson standards for quality and durability, and are backed by the limited Harley-Davidson warranty.
 
This paint scheme features a Harley-Davidson script logo over the secondary color on the lower saddlebags, a wide stripe in the secondary color down the center of the front fender and the fairing, and the classic “Number One” logo in red and blue on the fuel tank. The fuel tank design is similar to the latest CVO™ models. Saddlebag latches are color-matched.
 
This paint option is available in two colorways:
 
·       Billiard Red/Stone Washed White
·       Billiard Blue/Stone Washed White
 
Base price of the 2020 Road Glide® Special model with the Special Edition Two-Tone Paint options is $29,699*, a $1,900 premium over base price with a standard solid color, and are limited to quantities of 750 in each colorway in the United States.
 
* Prices listed are the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Prices for base models. Options are available at additional cost. Prices exclude tax, title, licensing, registration fees, destination charges, added accessories, and additional dealer charges, if any, and are subject to change. Harley-Davidson reimburses dealers for performing manufacturer-specified pre-delivery inspection and setup tasks. Dealer prices may vary.

2020 Youth Build Kickoff

Words and photos compliments of the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum and Hall of Fame
Tuesday night was the kick off for the 2020 youth motorcycle build scholarship program, Lonnie’s Heart, a 501c3 non-profit within the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum. This year 6 students from Sturgis Brown High School will participate in the program, transforming a 2015 H-D Heritage Softail into a custom cholo or vicla style motorcycle. Students that participate throughout the entire program and demonstrate enthusiasm and passion for learning will earn college scholarships. The program is open to all high school students in the northern Black Hills but for the second year in a row, only Sturgis students applied. The 2020 build will be lead by Sturgis Motorcycle Museum Hall of Fame Inductee Keith Terry and well known builder Patrick Garvin.

In 2019 students built a custom softail with a modern boardtracker vibe, complete with a 26″ front wheel and a 23″ rear wheel. That motorcycle sold at Mecum Auction in January garnering $35,000 for the scholarship program. A small portion of that money will be used toward the 2020 build and the remaining dollars will be used to support future scholarships.
