Is the backrest a standard HD backrest or does the custom seat take a different backrest?

The CVO Street Glide and CVO Road Glide are two piece seats.  HD does not offer a rider bike rest for them.  This is a rider back rest bracket from CVObackrest.com  I then am using a CVO Passenger back rest pad on it.

For me a back rest is a must on 500 plus mile days

Congrats sir!  Beautiful!  Just curious how so many people can afford to take that 1 yr depreciation on the trade in? Are all HD owners rich these days? Ride safe and sound!

Thanks for the answers. That's the one I'm hoping to get soon. Bars will have to change along with windshield.  And I'll check out the link for the backrest. Do need the backrest for the long rides. Enjoy your new ride!

Congratulations. Thank you for the pictures. Now I'm getting anxious.

The parts are arriving already for my new ride. I need the bike so I can work on color matching.

I got the passenger footpads removed restored and installed on hwy peg mounts.  I also got the Yaffe Stealth III plate frame on the bike.  Will have to get handle bars ordered now.

Disappointed Harley does not make these grips in a Heated version as I like the collection.  May have to try heat deamons or the grips of the street glide which are not an exact match.

Passanger pegs work good as hwy pegs.

Not at all rich.  Normally I trade every two years with 45K miles on the bike I am trading.  I really wanted back on road glide bad.  The local dealer worked well with me on the trade in, which had 21K miles.

Great looking bike.

Debated hard between the bike you got, which looks great and the one I picked.

Super sharp Bike! I'm a SG fan, but that is nice. I like the color matched wheels too! I noticed you bought it at Smokey Mountain - Figures they would get one of the 1st. Couple quick questions if its not prying to much - did they do you right on trade and did you pay retail or better? Just curious.

I really need to see that Black Earth in person as I know these pictures are probably not doing it justice.

I have owned one street glide, the 2017 CVO I traded on this.  I'm a die hard road glide guy.

The color matched wheels are great, really love how it looks with the bike. 

I am one of Smoky Mountains better customers, 14 bikes since 07 between my wife and I.  6 have been CVO.  I feel they did me very well on the trade.  I'm very happy with the deal, they took care of me.  I really can not give the full details, as it would not be fair to them.

I can say, I have brought several friends into the dealership for new bikes.  They have been very happy with how they were treated and the deal.

Lol, Completely understand. You arent the guy that walked in and bought the black cvo 2 years ago that I just walked in and started staring at at the front door on the checkered floor where you?
