Tried to find the listing for a screamin eagle road glide on the HD site, but they all said CVO?  Maybe I'm missing something? :oops:  :nervous:

With 210 post here I guess that qualifies you as an expert on Screamin Eagles CVO's?


They have been called Screamin Eagles since 2000.
When asked what kind of bike do you have, most people say I have a Screamin Eagle.

Try buying a Screamin Eagle paint set.

Finally, look in NADA or KBB for a 2000 or later CVO, not there.

No Eagle painted on the bike above, but NADA has it listed as a Screamin Eagle.

Really?  You didn't have to be a jerk to a fellow member, regardless of how superior your posting frequency is to mine.  But, I suggest you actually look at the KBB listings - these bikes were listed as Screaming Eagles from 2000 - 2008 on the KBB.  In 2009 and to date, they are now listed at CVOs.  Also, look at Harley's website.  Years ago, they did refer to them as Screaming Eagles.  Now, they don't refer to their own bikes as Screaming Eagle anymore; it's called CVO.  Therefore, they are no longer referred to as Screaming Eagles by KBB or more importantly, the maker of the bikes.  So, we can see that there's some ambiguity in what Harley and its riders call these bikes.  All I said is that they are no longer exclusively referred to as Screaming Eagles...but, what do I know, I have only posted a few hundred times, right?  Thanks for the sense of community.

Screamin Eagle's are CVO's, just like Mustangs are Fords or Camaro's are Chevrolet's.
Call yours what you please, mine are Screamin Eagle's.
And besides KBB can't even spell softail correctly.

Lew the SE's are in the CVO section.

The official designation is 2011 FLTRUSE Road Glide Custom - not 2011 FLTRUSKULL Road Glide Custom - and not 2011 FLTRUCVO Road Glide Custom...

  :)

But it wouldn't matter to me what they call it...I don't like skulls on bikes regardless of the name of the bike...especially the pathetic MOCO skull...

CVO started in 1999 with the FXR2 not a screamin eagle bike, HD first called a CVO an SE in 2000 with the FLTRSEI. they have used the names interchangeably since then

I think they just 'cheaped-out' in the design....they've been using the skull emblem throughout their line of clothing as well as bikes and parts for some years now.  I guess they are trying to appeal to those who do like skulls.  Not that there's anything wrong with that.  ??? har.  spyder
