That's the great thing about Harleys, though. It makes no real difference what colors you use, or what designs get placed on it. Each Harley is customized by its owner, so there are no two alike, unless you want to model one from the showroom floor. My advice is just to be creative with it. Have fun! Find or design a scheme that you like, and go for it!

Here are 2 photo's of my 1997 Electra Glide Classic. It has been repainted in 2 automotive colors that were not avail from H-D.

As Demon069 said there in NO such thing as a "stock" Harley. Everybody in my HOG (Harley Owners Group) club has a unique bike. So use you imagination and have fun.

Yes it metalic green. The dark green is GM forest green, and the light green is Chrysler import seafoam green.
Lots of pinstriping too.

Treasure that kit, it is an OOP kit.

A Shop close to me still has two of those on the shelf, really have to go and get myself one of them.

IMAI Instructions should refer to the Gunze Sangyo range of colours, normally they are eitehr given with an Hxx or simply the number xx depending on which of the colour ranges they are refering too.

Again as was mentioned above, on Bikes really anything goes. Most Bikers somehow will personalise their rides, may it be accessories, paint scheme, etc.
