So what would be a possibility / feasibility of taking M8 installing it in to a 2010 CVO Ultra? Would be a nice retro fit don't you think?   

[Fired00d]

IMO the M8 hasn't been proven yet and there are better alternatives available for engine swap for this year bike. I would also think there would be other costs in changing/updating that year bike to make it costly.

I don't think Harley will sell you a M8 as a crate motor yet anyway.

So, wishful thinking.

You would also have to replace the transmission and engine mounts.  There is probably more but

Well somebody's gotta be first.

Then there is the oil cooling or water cooling system--depending on the motor you will need to use one.

6 grand for the engine, probably about 4 for the tranny (not shown as a stand alone unit).  i would think that there be more economical options.

If I was going to attempt this, I'd just wait for a wrecked '17 & use it as a donor.

I think they had to do some minor changes to the frame to get it in.

NO Just No. Cost way exceed Any value.

Probably better to sell yours and move up.  I doubt if the electrical harness is the same, mounts probably different, exhaust is definitely different,  what about the water/oil cooling system on the new bike...how you going to hook all that up without spending a lot of $$. I've always said, anything can be done if you have enough cash, but is it really worth it? I would just move up to get the motor, new suspension, and don't forget the infotainment system. blah, blah, blah..........
