2013 Harley-Davidson XL1200V Seventy Two Review and Specifications
2013 Harley Davidson Seventy Two
New for 2013,Harley Davidson Seventy Two With Hard Candy Custom paint is a large metal flake finish that’s more than just paint job, it’s a shining declaration of independence—bright, bold and unique. The 2013 Harley Davidson Sportster Seventy Two is available in Hard Candy Lucky Green Flake, Hard Candy Big Red Flake, or Hard Candy Coloma Gold Flake. Recalling the iconic rebel styling of ‘70s custom bikes, Hard Candy Custom paint marks another milestone in The Motor Company legacy of innovation. We start with several passes of 200 micron flake over a black base, then clear coat it, hand-lay the graphics, and apply the many layers of clear coat to allow the flake to shine through. It’s a painstaking process that delivers a premium custom look straight from the factory, so you can start flying your colors with no waiting or extra effort.

Authentic '70s chopper attitude meets modern power and premium H-D styling in this bare-bones, low rider-inspired radical custom...
The Harley Davidson Seventy Two motorcycle is a metal flake dream machine, a Sportster on a trip back to the days when the cool kids rode a Sting-Ray and the big boys parked choppers in a row on the curb. Those motorcycles were long and lean; candy-apple color and gleaming chrome shimmering in hazy summer sunlight. From its Hard Candy Big Red Flake paint and ape bars to its narrow whitewall tires, the Harley Davidson Seventy Two is a respectful nod to that era, and to the influence of the custom culture that still percolates today along Whittier Boulevard, the legendary cruising street in East Los Angeles also known as Route 72.
