You are so lucky over there having that colour scheme.
Oddly enough, that color scheme in the US is only on non-ES. This color scheme in Australia is only ES. I've always wondered the why. Had they sold them in the US as an ES I would have had one. Turned out I ended up with the Cobalt Blue. And in the sun, the blue is much better. :cool:

Could you get an ES in '13? These are '13s, non-ES. As far as I know, ESs came out in '14.

No, you could not. Yes, they are. You are correct.

I was replying to @EVSY. HE was replying to Big Bill 51's 60th Anniversary Edition. And I was just blabbing about that color scheme difference between the different countries.

IMG_1047.JPGRight after this shot. My fender extender got hung on my Alrider skid plate and tore it off. Took some fender with it. Bottomed my forks hard going through a ditch. I've done the same thing quite a few times and it didn't hang up.

Looks like the Bubble heads are taking up motorcycling, good on them, if the scruffy angry type Harley riders can ride why not the Bubble heads eh.
My question is, the helmet manufactures are now making these helmets??
Bubble head's are happy all the time, I love happy people.
