I am sure there is a story behind this one!

Just goes to show you what happens when the CVO's aren't put together in their own separate assembly plant anymore.

Probably projected sales, and changed the badges on the newer ones.

The ones with "900" as the final tally will probably get a notice to bring er back to the dealer an swap out with the lower count.

Just my opinion or course.  The fewer the better!

I would sure hope the mothership figures this out.  All the bikes should have the same last number....900 or 550.

I just saw a badge on one at the dealer today and it was 480 of 550.  Looks like the MoCo decided to change the production qty midstream.  From what others have said on this forum, if the production wasn't reached in the past they just leave the end number the same.

I wonder if this has some connection with the lack of FLTs in 2014? :nixweiss:

I'd say if they're already up to 480, then there's not many left!

Inferno, that all depends if they go with the 550 count or decide that they now are going to make 900!  :huepfenlol2:

Well, it is a mystery.  I own 180/900, purchased in November in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Today I saw 430/550 in Phoenix. "Very interesting....but stupid".

Well Guys I have some good info on the badge. I just got off the phone with District Manager of Field Operation from HD, apparently at york facility their was a misprint on a batch of bike badges that were sent out on some of the bikes.  They will be correcting this problem, you will need to notify your dealer and they will replace the 550 badge with 900 but they will need misprint badges to give you the correct one.

Ha!  I think the people with the 550 badges will be wanting to keep them In lieu of trading for the correct one.

Unhappy employees don't give a chit! Chit starts at the top, and continues down the toilet!
It really is a shame, when we the owners care more about our motorcycles then the company
making them!
