I'm first on the list for an Anniversery, but, unless it really looks better in person, I'm thinking my 09 will do me just fine for a while more......

[2018_FLTRXSE]

Of the 3 I like the anniversary....

Key differences between 2012-2013:

• Etched windscreen
• 1.25" bars (I think I want)
• hidden antenna
• stereo upgrades (amp, bag speakers)
• headlights
• extended heel shifter

Is that it?... I guess at $33,999 for an anniversary bike, when you price all the individual pieces, its a bargain... but still no lowers or tour pak!

Already posted in the "generic" 2013 thread, but I'll throw it in here too:

Like the heavy breather & LED headlights (wonder when they'll be available for the older models and if they'll drop right in). Don't get why they chose to do the inner fairing in the secondary color; part of what makes the CVO "pop" over the standard RG is the painted inner fairing. Why choose to do it in the muted color?

Tank badges just don't seem CVO worthy... but then I love the Screamin' Eagles... which is why I probably won't find anything I like better than my 09!

the 'Eagle graphic is the one thing that drew me to buy the '09... I liked the silver... but trying to ride that bike during the day created glare issues. Not even good polarized glasses did the trick.

Still, I put 33K miles on her before turning it in.... a couple of failed lifters, and a bunch of other broken parts.... warranty took care of most.. but the upgrades cost me $$$$

So far, I'm happy with maple

Well I love the Anniversary color, good thing as I put a deposit on it over a month ago.  LOL.

I also really like the anniversary color on the Anniversary CVO Road King, have a deposit on it too.

Now I have to decide which I really want the most.  Its a hard choice.

I am keeping the 12 Skunk.  Till at least 45K on it or so.

I will keep the 13 very long term like the 03 Fatboy, the only bike I have owned more than four years.

Which one, I need to decide fast. 

The Anniversary color is very classy, I love it.

FLSTFI Dave, my two cents (and worth less every day) I would go with the SERG in the anniversary color.  I am NOT a Road Glide fan but recently my buddy bought a 2012 Skunk and it's a pretty good looking scooter.  Still like my SESG but am being impressed everyday by his Road Glide. 
As for the SERK, I'm still weighing on that vented windshield and not sure how the iPod will work without any visiable display anywhere for music selection.

Hey, either way would be a nice way to go....maybe a better road on the road glide...see what I did there?   

[customryder]

  for me... Bad ass!

[Kickst@nd]

Well, for me, I have been waiting a year for these models to come out.  Going to go with Road Glide, Just need to pick between the Orange and Anniversary.  I have money down, and the dealer is expecting a call from me on paint selection.  Leaning toward orange.  Hard to be a skittle in all dark colors.  LMAO!

My $0.02 worth (only an opinion).

The Anniversary look is classy. The Anniversary costs $1k. I'd put that $1k to a detachable TourPak.
The Anniversary editions seem to be mixed between standard 2013 Harley models and 2013 CVO models.
Why would I pay extra for a CVO to have it look like a "whole bunch" of standard model Harleys when it comes to paint?
I want my CVO to stand out in the crowd. I don't want it to be part of the crowd like the 105th Anniversary Duracell bikes.

Go Orange CVO my friend, be unique, be a skittle!

Cool bikes like the headlight upgrade but boy am I glad I got my 2012 SESG in my opinion none stack up to last years models.

I agree 100%... glad I fought the urge to wait for 110th anniversary editions and bit the bullet last year. The headlights are waaaay cool though. I also like the color of the anniversary edition more than the other two but the skull badge is cooler than the badge on that model.

LOL... I have an 03 Fatboy too (white) and I think I'll be stuffed and mounted on it in my tomb whenever the time comes... LOVE THAT BIKE!

I like the colors but would prefere an eagle emblem to a skull on the tank and fairing. I guess the anniversary badge is close to eagle but too close to a club's symbol. (Wouldn't want to offend a member of that group.)

[Houtx101]

I broke down and picked up the Cobalt and Midnight blue RG CVO about a month ago.
No Regrets here, still think that blue is the best I have seen in years and the 2013 colors are not popping any more for me!
Of course the fact that I got a smoking hot deal on the 2012 with Cams, Lifters, Tuner and Pipes already installed and at 635 total miles, all kind of helps :-)

I keep looking at all of the pictures and can't see a bleeder screw on the tranny sidecover, still has hydraulic clutch   
( can see master cyl) is the bleed screw relocated?

[customryder]

its a cvo "custom" not a cvo ultra glide they did that in 2011...just saying.
