You are the owner of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle and you have the project to redo a complete painting, or simply a touch-up on a part, with the color codes of American motorcycles ; and more precisely, the Harley Davidson motorcycle color code, corresponding to your motorcycle.
In this category, you can order Harley-Davidson OEM paint.
For this, it is imperative to have the name of the color or the Harley-Davidson color code that you can send to us by email after the order or during the "basket" phase, where you will find a text field to fill in this code.
Harley-Davidson paints are specific paints. They are often different from the paints of other motorcycle manufacturers. We supply them in a solvent-based version, rather than a “hydro” version. This formula allows greater ease of application and above all a much longer lifespan than modern bodywork water-based paint.
Two formats are available for the manufacturer's paint : in an aerosol or in a pot. As for pots, there are small formats (0.25L and 0.50L) which are paints already diluted and directly ready to use. There are kit formats with pure paint and its thinner.
Upon receipt of the order, provided that it is placed before 3 p.m., the colorist can prepare your painting immediately and ship it before 4 p.m., for delivery the next day in France or in 48/72 hours.
Calculate your needs : the yield or covering power varies greatly depending on the colour. However, in general, we can expect 250ml/m² of consumption.
When painting, you must always provide the finishing varnish and in most cases, for Harley colors, you must provide a base coat (this can be a primer and in some cases, a "coat 1" or “first coat”).
The tint of the American manufacturer Harley are frequently special tints, in the sense that they are sometimes a little more complex to apply than other classic motorcycle paints. We often come across so-called "tri-coat" paints and even if you have the color reference, you may not be aware of this particularity. Don't worry, our colorist takes care of everything. He will get in touch with you to inform you and if necessary, offer you the specific underlay you need. This can be done easily and quickly over the phone.
Of course, if you need a specific undercoat, then you will have to order an additional paint. This is the disadvantage of three-layer paints, which are however more beautiful than classic paint, because they are more transparent and they play with the effects of light.
Regarding the application of paint, it can of course be done by a professional equipped with a paint booth. This painter will be able to use your paint with the color code of Harley Davidson motorcycles and will probably prefer to use his own varnish.
You can also apply your Harley Davidson paint yourself, in your garden or garage. Just make sure you have good air circulation and lightly wet the surroundings of the painting area to catch dust. Dust can be a problem, mainly for varnish. The paint itself is not really sensitive to dust, first of all because it is very thin and also because it can be sanded before varnishing. As for the clearcoat, it is possible and easy to perfect the shine and remove the defects, with polishing.
Harley-Davidson is an American motorcycle manufacturer based in Wisconsin. This famous manufacturer was born in 1903. The story really begins in 1901 when the young William Harley, who is barely 20 years old, will build and design his own small 116 cubic centimeter engine !
Initially, this small motor is intended for a pedal bicycle. His childhood best friend is called Arthur Davidson. They will quickly come together to build their first moped and travel around their neighborhood with their prototype. The first Harley-Davidson factory was established in 1906 and it produced almost 50 motorcycles during the year.
During the First World War, Harley Davidson factories contributed to the war effort by supplying motorcycles for the American army. They will sell almost 20,000 during these years.
Along with the Indian brand, Harley is one of only 2 motorcycle manufacturing companies that survived the Great Depression of 1929.
Harley has become one of the largest motorcycle manufacturers in the world, after going through more than a century of tumultuous history, between competition, crisis, change of ownership...
Harley is known for its unique styling that stays true to the tradition of customizing and customizing. It is also known for its large engines, often over 700 cm³, and it has more recently calmed down by offering lighter contemporary models.
Harley Davidson factories are numerous in the United States, but not only, since there are also many factories around the world, for example in India, Brazil or Thailand.
No need to inspect your tank and the various parts of your fairing, because you will never find your Harley-Davidson color code there. This color code is also not present on the registration document of the motorcycle.
If you bought your motorcycle new or if you have the Harley motorcycle booklet, then you should be able to find the name of the color along with a code. It is this reference which is important in order to be able to order the paint.
Luckily for the Harley-Davidson brand, there is a lot of information available on the internet. There are many forums dedicated to the brand and there are millions of Harley-Davidson enthusiasts. Information, in particular on painting, is available everywhere.

No, Harley does not have any particularly famous or iconic shades. However, there are special shades, including shades with glitter, something not found with any other manufacturer.
It is unfortunately common not to be able to produce Harley-Davidson paint, especially with recent color codes, those that have been released in recent years. The American manufacturer jealously guards all the information concerning these paints.
It does indeed take some time (generally 2 years) to see all the recent colors that have passed through the hands of color laboratories, in particular ours, which is located in Italy, to be analyzed and then matched.
