    Lets see the anniversary models all in one thread, they're popping up all over the forum, it's time to gather them all together.

    I read somewhere that the '76 Bicentennial Editions were the first Anniversary models HD ever produced, they were made in FLH, FXE and Sportster models, all had special flake paint called Sequin Black and Special Bicentennial Decals,
    The FLH had two small decals either side of the tanks and a big eagle on the front of the fairing, whereas the FXE and Sportster had the big eagle on the top of their tanks, all the decals started out with a lot of red in them, but they quickly faded to green,

    My FLH, normally should have a Black Buddy Seat,


    Mine also has the incorrect fairing decal,  previous owner not being able to source an original, I have one now, just got to get around to changing it,


    This is the decal I should have,

    This is what they looked like after a bit of sun,

    Whoops, just read that they had an anniversary model in '54 to celebrate HD's 50 years, so the '76er wasn't the first anniversary,

    I've posted this 2003 Road King on here before, I it bought in California while on holidays to ride and ship home, very low mileage garage queen with some great history,  kept it for 2 yrs in CA and rode on both visits to all points of the USA, classic looking Anniversary model and shipped home and sold on to a happy owner here in WA.

    Still have the Deluxe and have recently bought a 2015 Street Glide Gidgi, will post some old photos sometime when you were over here, Rodders went to a good home and got a friend off of his Ducati, missed every time I see the photos.

    One hell of a looking ride Mickle. Not only 117 with all the jazz, but looks the goods.

    Mickle, good to see you finally got your anniversary ultra. Looks good. What do you think of it compared to the CVO twin cam ultra you had?

    If you are talking about just the engine as my 2015 was the 117ci I need to put some more kms on it before it loosens up but at this
    early 120km stage it feels like it wants to go that's for sure, suspension wise it rides way better and I doubt very much that I will be
    upgrading anything in that area (2015 cost $2000 to get it acceptable) so overall I think Harley may have nailed this Tourer if the
    engines hold up.
