Well if there is a CVO Pan America Special, I wonder if it just comes with the extras like the painers and top case? Will it have fancy paint and such and be more road oriented? Sure wouldn't want to take one with a fancier paint job off road. In know I have dropped mine more than once.

Sure wouldn't want to take one with a fancier paint job off road. In know I have dropped mine more than once.I have a GSA that will be up for replacement next year. It's my Rally bike, so it sees a lot of miles, and they are mostly highway. The reason I'm not looking toward the Pan Am yet is that it competes with the GS (non Adventure), and the bigger tank not only provides more range, it provides a TON more weather protection. I don't think I would select a CVO model to replace it either, because how much it gets abused. I am kinda hoping that the CVO will introduce a larger tank to match the 7.9 on the GSA, that would then trickle down to a pedestrian PanAm.
My thoughts on a CVO adventure bike prolly doesn't need to be heard. If I was 20 years younger I’d consider a PanAm but not a CVO PanAm.

A bigger tank would be nice for rally purposes or if your primary purpose was on road.
I have only heard one utterance, but it was about a super shiny dirt bike.... so far, nothing to substantiate it....You can see a Pan Am in the background of the teaser shot.

Ugh...

Heres a picture. Not a CVO worthy paint, but at least it has the "Screamin' Eagle"I just noticed the eagle and was going to mention it too. :D
like the original 2000 and then the 2009.
I just noticed the eagle and was going to mention it too. :DAlong with the engine guards and brake rotors which look like the Galfers I'm running on mine.
It looks like they're playing the Carbon Fiber card with these. Seat cowl, front fender, tank console...
The Motor Company knew they had a Home run with the 2022 Wicked Orange Pearl / Black combo, So I get it.Kinda shows that the creativity has pretty much disappeared from MoCo. Back in 2018 when they were selling single colored CVOs started the big slide.
still kinda makes me mad they do a paint so close and only 2 years later.
Same VVT cam cover but not a VVT engine. Brochure states this 121 is tuned for higher horsepower than the VVT version.The exposed carbon fiber should have been the weave, it looks great on my corvette. This to me looks unfinished. It is the 25th anniversary of the CVO. I like most everything about the ST but the way they did the Carbon Fiber. Interesting that the 121 is not VVT, and they claim more power. Usually VVT is for more power and a wider power range.

No CVO Street Glide, guess they know you cant build a high performance bagger and govern it to 100 mph LOL
That new CVO color for the Road Glide non-ST must be called Skidmark Brown PearlWait for it ... Try orange...again.
I meant to type no CVO Street Glide ST.
Heres a better picture.That is beautiful paint, but I don't think my budget will support it.
Heres a better picture.
Heres a better picture.Looks good. But really nothing new at all in the design. 1 has been used on CVO and non CVO. Orange and black is done often. It will sell well but I would like to see something new.

Just saw all of the 2024 bikes including the new CVO's. Not impressed at all. Sadly, I think the Motor Company has lost it way. The CVO Road Glide (orange+black) looks sharp but, not at that price point.

Our local dealer used to throw in a jacket with the cvo purchase a few years ago.
Last one they gave me was on my 2016 cvo.
After a couple changes of ownership they stopped.
I can see why now!
:nixweiss:
I thought your post was joking, but I see that jacket really is $2400! Whoever thought that price up has to be two steaks short of a barbeque! Who in their right mind would buy one at that price. Seems to be the current MoCo pricing trend though, pick a number, then treble it and we'll call that a bargain....Price of that jacket is insane. Heck I choke on 700 for a good jacket.
I think the CVO ST will sell well.
What's up with the decal on the side cover on the Road Glide St CVO. What is it suppose to represent? Any thoughts? I'm surely not impressed with the direction HD is going.
Eqcons, You have several valid points. Especially about the customer being the Beta testers, and we were for the 2007, 110, the 14 GT head unit, the 17 M8, the 18 GTS head unit, the 21 Pan America, and the 23 CVO. Prices have gone nuts and features have been removed.Relocation brackets coming in the 2nd qtr for those rear canisters. There's something in the P&A book about that.
Mike, I would have liked a new frame, and swing arm with improved suspension. The adjustable front should have been on the 23 and 24 CVO's not just the ST. The mounting for the rear remote reservoirs looks like it prohibits installing the 4 point docking hardware.
I do really like the new head unit and the VVT engine..

So HD can charge you for it!Of course. I believe the whole intent of the ST models this year though were to be a bar hopper/"performance" bagger taking after the races that have been going on the last few years. It'll be interesting to see if Polaris wants to put something out to compete against market share.

It's being marketed as a performance bagger, even the promo for it shows them ridding it hooligan style. Red line is 5900 RPM, peak torque comes on latter than the other CVO's or M8 motors. I have a feeling its not set up to cruise at 70 mph with where peak torque is, you want it around 3000 rpm for touring.
I'm not i the market, but want to see the Copperhead color. I am sure the white ST looks great.I saw that Copperhead color on an SESG yesterday. Not for me. Nice color but just not interested. Unless you live where it's always sunny on your bike, the color is boring. JMO

I was checking out all the bikes and colors and all the touring limited bikes Batwing or Shark non CVO'S only have Black Motors and Black Front Forks ( Front Ends ) !!! That Sucks if your a Chrome guy like me !!!You are able to get black or chrome. Black forks and exhaust and such is optional, and it costs more on non-cvo.
Harley is really pushing all blacked out bikes !! most of us older guys still like chrome.
Very disappointed with that change. ( Maybe an up charge for chrome in the future :o ?? )
