We may just be beyond caring. What do you think?

well said ...but I have been waitin for 8 years for something as nice as my 04 SEEG or my 2011 SeSG.    Just sayin...

I know.... never say never,,,,, but, I'll never buy another new one. I will buy low mile used or (slightly) wrecked if I want another Harley or a different brand all together.
I have never worried much about warrantee's or the little miss-steps built into my toys as I have always done my own work. But, buying something that is darn near the price point of a well equipped 1/2 ton silverado and has a better than average chance of failing is (IMO) poor personal judgment.

If keeping on the same trajectory, the CVOs will have more black and less chrome. The paint schemes will be less exotic than years past and more like what one would find on a standard production bike.  However, the CVOs will still be priced as if the bikes were loaded with chrome, very custom paint, color-matched frames, etc. 

The MoCo has slowly changed the CVOs to be produced at a lower cost, while raising the MSRP.  I expect that trend to continue in 2019.  I'd like to know what the profit per unit is on a CVO produced in 2003 vs 2018.  I think we'd be shocked.

Word is the MOCO has decided mechanical motor are beyond their capabilities, so the 2019 models are all electric!  The last engineering decision before the new bikes are released to the public is how long to make the extension cords!

Very hard to argue with these observations, Mark    spyder

Most likely your correct so my 2011 SESG will be in my stable for another year.    Another year of boring Denim blacked out cvos that are hard to distinguish from a standard model.

Custom Vehicle Operations has been disbanded. As stated earlier in this thread, they will be electric. Harley is bringing back the EVO moniker. Electric Vehicle Operations. And since they still want riders to experience that Harley feel, they will all have an electric pump that will simulate a sumping motor. Early reviews say that you cannot even tell it is electric. But it is definitely ALL Harley. (Except for the 93% of the parts from China)

I think that this will be pretty close to what we will see for 2019!

Less sales than 2018 and new issues.

One of the 2019 new models will be called
