Gold Key - Etc.
« on: November 20, 2010, 06:48:29 PM »

I've read several posts where owners indicate they got the gold cvo commorative key with their bike.  Question is, did you buy it, did the dealer throw it in as part of the deal, or did it come standard along with the bike cover?  I didn't receive one - just the bike cover - so I'm checking to see if it was "accidentally" misplaced by the dealer or I overlooked it somewhere.

But this is just one of several problems I've encountered.  You don't even want me to begin about the problems I've had with HDFS.  I have to call them each month to credit my acct - they keep posting my payments to a previous bike that was financed.

Love the bike - it's scheduled for new pipes, HB, and tune here one of these days.  Just waiting for the truck to arrive to carry it through the snow to the dealer. Ha Ha.

Ride safe.

Mine came with the bike when I picked it up, as with all the other goodies.

Yep, they are standard and in the brochure. Now go back to the thieving dealer and make him order you one.

Thanks.  I'll contact the dealer next week and inquire as to where the key may be.

And chywy, understand that this is a genuine key uniquely keyed to your bike.  it will actually lock/unlock your ignition and forks.  Pork.

Well, mate, you got 2 items that I don't think they throw in up here.  At least i didn't get either of those 2 items.  I did, however, locate a (supposed to be) sealed, waterproof envelope to put my owner's manual, registration, insurance card, etc. in.  Guess they figured I would have to make do with the leather saddlebags.   glad you are getting good weather now.  Ours is just starting to really go to pot.  (that's bad).  Maybe, beings we almost always start taking delivery on our new bikes up here in the late fall, early winter, maybe they ought to throw in a chrome-plated thermometer and a leather-handled snow shovel......with conchos......yeH, that'd be cool.       Pork

Glad to hear you found neutral - I thought it was just me - you need a real fine touch to stick it in neutral on my bike as well.  - 
I'm changing out the pipes as well and adding a heavy breather - at over 6,000 ft in elevation - I need all the air I can get - I'm also tuning the bike - it does run a bit warm - even though I'm thinking the heat from the bike would be appreciated on a snowy day like today.
Cheers to down under - ride safe and enjoy,

oh i forgot another thing thrown in by harley davidson australia is harley assist for two years, 24hours a day 7 days a week , which supplies petrol if you run out, accomodation if you are away from home and you have a breakdown, and towing etc.
good value..... makes uo for the extra we pay for the bikes

What is the purpose of that gold key anyhow?  My wife said it's to make fools feel better about the big rip-off they just purchased.  Mine sits in a drawer somewhere.  Does anybody think I could sell it?  What do you think it's worth?  I could use the money to buy something useful like beer or a slinky little nighty for the MRS.

Your wife is closer than any of us would like to think. You can sell the key for $35-50 on ebay if you wish. That should get the Mrs. something you can both enjoy at Victoria's Secret.

However if you don't have at time of sale it's another excuse for the dealer to give you less at trade in  :soapbox: :soapbox: :soapbox: :soapbox:
