twincamzz, tell me more about the certificate of authenticity. I've got the green/silver flames also (91 of 200) but never heard of the certificate. I have no doubt about the authenticity of the paint set, my dealer is a good one and they've earned my trust and respect. Paint set was on the bike ('02 FLHRI) when I purchased it. Thanks.

Sorry for the delay in answering Jeff. Missed your post somehow. Anyways...my paint set was also already on my scooter when I traded for it this summer. In the saddlebag was a certificate much like a friend got with his 95th anniversary Fatboy. It had the number (ie #77 of 200) and some instructions to follow if there was ever a problem and replacement was necessary. It also came with 3 bottles of touch up paint that are not commercially available since the color was custom mixed. (according to the info ). BTW...do you have flames on your rear fender ?
The certificate was "titled" Harley-Davidson Color Shop Radical Custom Paint. Inside under Service & Repair it reads "Front & rear fenders may be purchased as seperate service parts, however, to maintain the exclusivity of individually numbered sets, this Custom Paint Warranty Identification Card must be presented to your dealer to obtain a service part fuel tank."
On the back page it states that the normal warranty period is only 90 days. Then at the very bottom it states that participating dealers "may" offer a 12 month limited warranty on it when installed by the dealer on a new bike prior to delivery.
This paint set retailed for 4200.00 ! They damn well better offer a 12 month warranty ! (I didn't give anywhere near that for mine, but still...c'mon !) 4200.00 price tag and Wyo is having problems getting this taken care of ? That's plain ol'
BULLSHIT !!
