Harley-Davidson® Factory Custom Paint & Graphics

The Factory Custom Paint & Graphics program provides premium paint-and-graphics options on select models for customers seeking a standout finish. Available through authorized dealerships, these custom finishes are applied during assembly and come with a full factory warranty, eliminating the hassle and expense of third-party custom painting.

For 2025, three distinctive Factory Custom Paint & Graphics options will be available. Each paint set features an exclusive black tank medallion with chrome accents and a unique mother-of-pearl textured background available in purple or orange.

  • Mystic Shift
    offers a striking color transition from deep gunmetal to purple, blue, and nearly orange, most prominent in direct sunlight around the motorcycle.
  • Firestorm
    reflects a current trend for flame-themed designs. Harley-Davidson first introduced factory flame designs on the 1980 Wide Glide® and has returned to this style several times since then. The Firestorm options incorporate a “ghost fade” effect where the fade color is somewhat brighter than the basecoat. This allows the flames to be highly visible from specific angles while remaining subtle from others. Firestorm variants are available in two popular shades.

    • Midnight Firestorm
      features a dark flame scheme with ghosted flames over a Vivid Black base complemented by a charcoal inner glow.
    • Whiskey Firestorm
      adds a mid-coat for an enhanced orange finish with Ember Sunglo ghost flames and a vibrant orange inner glow.

Harley-Davidson embodies the enduring quest for adventure and the freedom of the open road. Visit

Yamaha Unveils ‘Motorcycle of the Future’ Featuring AI Technology and Glow-in-the-Dark Wheels, Inspired by Netflix Concepts

The Japanese automotive powerhouse Yamaha has unveiled an AI-enhanced “motorcycle of the future” featuring extraordinary elements, such as wheels that luminesce at night.

This revolutionary concept originated from a partnership with Netflix’s sci-fi anime series, Tokyo Override.

Netflix approached Yamaha to feature some of their bikes within the series.

This request led Yamaha to provide 3D data, imagery, and audio recordings of their motorcycles.

To craft the design, Yamaha integrated the finest features from their YZF-R1 superbike and VMAX muscle cruiser, adding a futuristic spin.

Named the Y/AI, this extraordinary design showcases spokeless, semi-transparent wheels that emit a dazzling blue glow while in motion.

The engine is cleverly hidden within the bridge connecting the wheels, resulting in an elegant, minimalist form.

The handlebars are uniquely situated on the sides of the front forks, linked by an arch, further enhancing its futuristic aesthetic.

The series, which is set in Tokyo 100 years ahead, depicts a reality where AI is woven into everyday activities, automating various aspects, including vehicle operation.

In the show, the superbike navigates its advanced cityscape, but it was transformed into a full-scale concept model showcased at the Motor Expo 2024 in Bangkok.

The event ran from November 29 through December 10.

This live unveiling came on the heels of the Netflix series release of Tokyo Override, which premiered on November 21.

In other motorcycle-related news, the US brand Harley-Davidson has announced it is broadening its collaboration with a two-wheeler company to launch a new model.

The motorcycle giant is enhancing its partnership with Hero MotoCorp.

Additionally, a biker recently shared her experience of waiting over a year for a component for her Harley after experiencing a breakdown during a road trip.

The disappointed rider scoured two continents for a solution but eventually learned she was facing a peculiar technical issue.

Larissa Scheler from Hanover, Germany, was relishing a summer ride through the French island of Corsica when her 2007 Harley Davidson Sportster suddenly stalled.

Being mechanically inclined, she quickly identified that the problem lay with the engine control module.

This essential central computer oversees nearly every engine function.

Without it, the motorcycle effectively operates without a reliable sense of when to inject fuel into the cylinders, when to ignite it, or when to release the exhaust.

Clearly, this is neither safe nor efficient; hence, Larissa sought to order a replacement module at her earliest opportunity.

Regrettably, this occurred in the summer of 2023, and this seasoned motorcyclist was still waiting for the part as of last month.
