Duhhh! cause that pigment comes from Mexico!!

 

Who knows, I'm just glad. Theirs too many already.

 

+1 ..... I agree.

 

I thinks its because all the car manufacturers are using it now.

 

Ancient chinese secret!

 

I like sedona orange, but I agree they have saturated the market. I am glad I own that rare Vivid Black.

 

I haven't seen another Sedona Orange RG in my area. There is a Road King in this color though and I have seen a Street Glide also.

 

Well one of the V-Rod models (I think the Night Rod [god is that name dumb]) has Sedona Orange for a 2012, so they got a little of it.

I'm interested to see this Tequila Sunrise/ H-D Orange though.

 

It isnt the actual "orange" pigment that is lacking. It is a dry powder pearl pigment that gave the Sedona Orange that unique "TriStage" look. They stopped suuplying it because supposedly is was costing more to make that Harley was willing to pay. Automotive manufacturers i beleive have the rights to the pigment now. I think it is called a Xyrilic Pearl or something...

But with that being said, IM HAPPY THEY DONT HAVE IT ANYMORE!!!

 

According to my dealer, they are still able to order and receive S.O. parts (tour packs, lowers, etc) without any problem. Seems likely that HD figured out they were losing money painting bikes this color, but are still willing to paint P&A this color, since the margins are (I'm sure) quite different.
I think like many companies, the Japanese tsunami was a very convenient rationale for all manner of price changes/supply changes, etc. Not to be too much of a conspiracy theorist.......

There are alot of cars close to the Sedona Orange. I'm glad they stoped making it. Yes the Tequila Sunrise is from Mexico!!!!!!!!!!. I to have owned a few "RARE VIVID BLACK" bikes.

 

It's gotta suck pulling up for gas and having a yuppie in a orange Kia strike up a conversation about how similar the paint is, and how much he likes it.
