Very nice.  I will have to find out how much to have the street glide piece paint matched, I may add that to mine.

I wish the whole emblem would show, however it is minor for the over all better weight distribution, handling and looks of the bike to me.  Not sure what I could put in its place.

I will now look to see if I can get the little plastic plug, all I could find were for two pin ones.  I try the parts break down for that tribal light.  Thanks
Dave in Australia our CVO's don't come with CVO emblems. We have a ugly round black plastic cover in is place which covers a recessed bolt. I have removed and installed theses twice.
You can remove your emblem with fishing line or plumbers straight line cord and lower it with new double sided tape, your licence plate may cover the bolt recess.

Local PPG painter did the one I had on my '11 for $60. He still have some paint from when he did my saddlebag spoiler lights. Dead on match. Not sure how much Joe would want to do it and shipping is something to consider in the price also. I'll do it again on this bike, get that damn black piece around the TP lights matched and the mid frame deflectors also. Along with stretched bags.

I have thought about the stretched bags.  However at this point it does not seem worth the money on a bike that will get traded in 2~3 years.

It might be a long shot but if anyone wants to sell their CVO fender emblem please PM me.
I have a 2014 FLHRSE that has picked up a small chip on the rear fender that it would cover
I tried to order one but they are vin specific and the 2014 SE Road King doesn't come with one
Thanks if anyone who made the conversion has an unused one and can help a fellow CVO brother out

Here are some pictures finished.

No Tour pack





With Tour pack.   Floor boards were also removed.  No bag guards either for a cleaner look.

Hi Dave
What kind of Corbin seat are you using. Does it come with heat?
Will it give you a lower seating position?

It is a corbin Classic solo.

Heat is an option, I did not get it as this came off my 12 SERG with no heat.

Yes it is at least an inch lower, probably closer to two.

I'm a fan of this seat, in these pictures it has more than 46K miles on it.  I have done nothing to it but wash it when I wash the bike.

I did a similar conversion on my 14 Limited, added hidden antenna under fairing, curved plate, custom seat.  Wires for saddlebag locks reached the bags without having to remove from harness cover. Pretty easy conversion. Everything works great, like to add the saddlebag speakers but not sure it's worth the $2000 cost!

At painters, using them to try to paint match a Street glide style rear facia.  They do not seem to be having much luck, may have to contact the guy people on the forum use.
