I added an extended brake lever, and wouldn't ever go back to stock now.  See this review:

http://www.cvoharley.com/smf/index.php?topic=102904.msg1328585#msg1328585

I also added rider floorboard extenders.  I've had Kuryakyn's on my other CVO, so I ordered them again.  Moves the floorboards out 3/4" and they are fantastic.

As far as shifter levers, I didn't feel the need to spring for the bucks.  I've never liked Harley's heel shifter, and I've pulled it off every one I've owned.  I just adjusted the height of the toe shifter until I was happy and put a chrome spacer from Kuryakyn on the shift rod. 
Normally I wouldn't put much that wasn't Harley on my bike, but these smaller items are great additions.
Hope this helps.

I know you didn't ask about these, but here's the link to the review of the spacers I did.

I've got the EZ Brake on mine and like it. I've never used the Softbrake setup so I can't comment on that.

I ended up using ez-brake, I had them (extended brake, shift levers, and anti-rattle) on my 2004 CVO.

They also have a great package deal on all three and when you call let them know your on the CVO site.

Here is an after photo. I am considering the soft brake 3/4" floor board extender to move the floor boards out 3/4".

Thanks

I went with software too. . I liked the look best and it seemed they had positive comments. . Did the longer front shifter and the long spacer. . Should be on by sat.  Stuart.

Hey Stuart, can you give a short review and maybe a pic when you're done with the left side? I considered all of that but just ordered the brake for now.

Thanks,
