No passenger pad or pegs???

That is correct, no passenger pegs or pillon. No place to mount Hwy pegs either.
Some of us can remember when CVO equated to "throwing the catalog at it" from the P&A catalog. Now even paint costs extra.
Yep..and now it comes with less customization, a copy of the catalog and a higher price tagYou can definitely go down the money pit to make this bike a 2 up tourer.
No rear speakers??? >:(
That is correct, no passenger pegs or pillon. No place to mount Hwy pegs either.Ciro makes a great mount for highway pegs. Mounts to the floorboard mount. You'll scrap your cans before those mounts.
You can definitely go down the money pit to make this bike a 2 up tourer.My bet is the people that buy this bike continue down the high performance path rather trying to make it a good bike for touring.

Let’s see, relocate the rear shock reservoirs, docking kit, tourpak mounting kit, tourpak and hardware, tourpak lighting and backrest pad, heated seat and harness, backrest mounting kit and backrest, redo the floorboards and add passenger floorboards, heated grips ( probably would need to change bars due to the risers) and I’m just getting started without touching the stereo and the pipes, lol!
Being non VVT, you could bolt HD 135 cylinders on it, good cam, HPI intake and so on. Nobody has VVT cams yet, fueling and S&S working on them.

That money will add up very fast to do it. Still think most will go performance bagger route.
...don't have to take off the heel shifter. :huepfenjump3:And I forgot you have to buy the heel shifter!

And I forgot you have to buy the heel shifter!I would have to buy the heal shifter. Thats the only way I up shift except on my Pan America, and I find my self trying to do it on my PAS.

Things sure have changed.

And now you pay more to get less. Thank you Harley-Davidson.
Picked this up last week
I have put 150 miles on it so far
Im still in the break in period and trying to stay under 3500 rpms
wow even at that...bammm
I will say, other than the ridiculously quiet exhaust, the bike is flawless.
Technology works great and the acceleration is insane.
Suspension is super easy to tune and the rider position is aggressive.
Sure no 2 up seat but possible if you really want a passenger.
I did break down and throw a set of Kromewerks 202645's on it.
What a difference
Congrats on your new cvo!
I sat on that exact model couple of weeks ago. For a factory performance bagger, it was very well done. Amazing isnt it how quickly you ditched the titanium tip mufflers they sell standalone for $1250, lol!
YesCongratulations on the new CVO. That's sad about those mufflers. I wanted to hear them and if good get them, as they look nice.
It sounded like a sewing machine to me b4 the switch
Been used to Vance & Hines 2-1 with no cat on my streetglide.
You gotta let the cages know ur coming and believe me, those $1200 titanium mufflers suck
so now they sit in a box and my bike sounds like a Harley
:mango:

DaveI have TAB performance B.A.M sticks with Zombie baffles on my 23 CVO, love the sound. Wish those SE had a good sound.
Your telling me, disappointment for sure.
Modifying them to sound better looked like major drama which is why i said...good bye and got the Khromewerks, which evidently sound straight up awesome and look like they were made for that bike. :P
I think low 40’s is fine for a cvo, my problem began when they started exceeding $50-$55k plus all the other add-ons. I bought my 22 cvo rgl which has every option under the sky used with only 900 miles on the odometer for $15k less than if I had bought it brand new.
Here’s the price tag on a Glide ST at Harley of Central Texas (Austin). Wish I could but my old man body and budget won’t allow. The fine print says that price doesn’t include TTL, setup, etc.Nothing like trying to milk every nickle they can out of someone that doesn't know any better.

The fine print says that price doesn’t include TTL, setup, etc.I would never ever buy a bike from a dealership that has any kind of dealer markup much less than a $10k dealer markup on MSRP. We have 10 dealerships give or take in the 100 mile radius of the DMV area, there are several I have never bought a bike from because of exactly this.

You’re right, when I lived in the DMV I was spoiled. I could always find a part or bike in stock that I was looking for somewhere close.Waugh HD in Orange was my favorite.Yeah, Boss Waugh was one of a kind. He sat at the front desk and greeted all his customers. I chatted with him many a time when we lived in the Charlottesville area. I once passed him riding down to Daytona Bike Week when he was riding down on his trike. he was 80 years old that year if I remember right.

It was a true old school dealership where the owner was a rider/motorcyclist. He sold the dealership a few years before he passed and name has changed to Stonewall H-D. They are moving the dealership out of Orange into Greene County on Route 29. KC if you remember from your time in the area the new dealership will be a little south of Route 33 on the southbound side of Route 29.
