Plain paintwork

What year are the Legends that dont have two tone paint work? Specifically the Plain maroon with the small motif instead of the chrome tank badge. Cheers guys!

The Legend only lasted 2 years I think, from 1998 with the 'Deluxe' introduced in 1999 which is when the two tone paint along with some other minor mods was brought in. Dropped in 2000.

I was under the impression Legends were made from 99 - 01. Never heard of a 2 tone Legend, but would really like to see a pic of that.

Well I've never seen you

What do you ride? - I'll wave you down. I'll be on a Burgundy Thunderbird with lots of chrome and little sidebags on the rack. Up around Kings Road.

It was 99-01. Or else my 2k would be worth a bundle. None of the legends had two tone, least not that I'm aware of pretty sure they were all solid colors. The Legend was the "stripper" in the classics line. Personally I love mine, just wish for the 6-speed.
