Looks like FLTRXSE.  See here if you have not already:  MY 2012 Tech Info.

I love this site because of the variety of opinions on these new CVO's. I need to see this bike in person because for me, the graphics in the pics I've seen on this site for the 2012 CVO Road Glide is not my cup-of-tea. I'm still loving my 09 Silver paint scheme better.

I like the 2011 Krypto as well but at the moment, the best IMO for 2012 is the CVO Ultra. I love the classic simplicity of the 2012 CVO Ultra as it reminds me of my 2009 CVO Road Glide.

I also love the 2006 CVO Ultra paint schemes and the 2009 CVO Ultra paint schemes but I'm a Road Glide man (the 2000 and 2001 CVO Road Glide paints schemes are killer as well..


Sorry for the rant but wanted to chime in on the color schemes.

Looking at the link, it seems the street glide gets lots more audio stuff than the road glide version.  I would think they would have done the lowers street glide CVO style with the speakers.  Looks like for 12 they have speakers in the bags on the CVO street glide.

I am anxious to see the other colors for the Road Glide CVO.

charles05663 the other gauge they got rid of in the fairing was the fuel gauge.  Just like they did in the 2011 CVO Street Glides due to having the flush mount LED fuel gauge in the tank now.

I agree, it would seem the Street Glide is getting a way better stereo system then the Road Glide for some reason.  Based on the 2012MY information that has been posted, the Street Glide gets 4 speakers in the fairing like the Road Glide, but then gets a pair in the lowers and another pair, and maybe another amplifier, in the saddle bags.  That puts the Street Glide stereo at 8 speakers and 400w.  That's twice the stereo the Road Glide is getting.

What is up with that?  I do not see anything the Road Glide is getting to offset this disparity in stereo systems and the lowers on Street Glide.  Does that mean the Road Glide will be less money than the Street Glide?  They just do not seem like equal bikes in terms of features IMO.

But I do think the Road Glide wins hands down in the paint graphics.  Will have to see if the colors that are offered do as well tomorrow.

After taking another look at the pic and reading the SESG sheet, I see they've gone to the Road King gas tank on the 12 SERG as well.  You can see the gas cap...so they replaced the air temp and fuel guages with tweaters in the fairing.

These will have to do until we get better pics from the dealer meeting and the mags that have already done pre-reviews.

In my opinion, the colors on the CVO FLTRX are outstanding this year! Now if it only had the bag speakers.  :oops:

And...The White.  After looking at all the CVOs, IMHO, the Road Glides are the real stars of the 2012 CVO lineup.
