i have yet to see a new/2018 CVO, and have been told the same thing...fewer CVOs. Dillon Brothers in Omaha said they have got 4 and all sold before they arrived   :nixweiss: going to be an interesting year if its true

Worth HD in KC had 3 2018MY CVO's on the floor on Saturday when I visited (1 Road Glide and 2 Street Glides).  I realize this isn't Omaha, but isn't that far away.  I ordered my 2018 CVO RG from St. Joe HD.  I'm in Northwest MO so maybe I'll catch you on the road sometime.  :drummer:

Yeah I rode the new RG CVO, that 21 rode like a wheel barrow. Nice bar hopper if you like that kind of thing. Me, nope!

In my opinion it has very little to do with the 21 in. That bike as a whole is far rougher riding than my 30 inch bike with full air ride.

This would be no sweat off my balls and the same applies if they stopped CVO production altogether. I'll never forget my first (and last) CVO I was so happy to purchase in 2005. Long story short ... my beautiful Candy Cherry happily turned into nothing but a problem child I traded for an '07 GW. People are wising up and realizing that high price tag doesn't mean higher quality too. I personally have had better luck with their "lesser" or "regular" line-up than the one I had years ago. I could hit the lotto and become a millionaire and still never buy another CVO again. I know some of you love your's and that's awesome, but for me that word leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Then why are you on a cvo forum?
I have had 4 cvos and the only problem i have had was the power ignition stopped locking on my 13.
Ive put about 30-40 thousand miles on each. I guess the key is to ride them, not let them sit.

CVOHarley.com welcomes all comers. Whether you have a motorcycle or not, a CVO or not. It's a quality forum, free of advertising with great information and members. Hell, I showed up at the Redwoods GTG with a BMW and I only had to wash 3 Harleys for them to let me come along on the rides  :D

Go to the M8 section of this forum...it seems riding them is what's causing the problems.

Maybe you haven't been around here long enough to know, but it's for the people here and other benefits of this site is why I'm here, not because whether or not I have or had a CVO. How would like to scrape, borrow beg, plead or whatever to finance over 35 grand for what you THOUGHT was the bike of your dreams only to have all that flushed down the toilet? I tried to give HD the benefit of the doubt for two years and finally gave up and traded the pos. Good for you if your's has been trouble-free, but that's not the case for some of us. You obviously don't know me either because this wouldn't be my first or second time going back/forth to HD. If you thought this site was only for CVO owners, you can lose that thought. The MoCo is losing sales for a reason and it's not because my bikes sat like queens in a garage because they don't, I ride them. If I wanted something to stare at, I would buy a model.

I could care less what you do or what you ride or drive, whatever floats your boat. I'll still be smiling on my new GW next year while you continue to chug the overpriced HD Kool-Aid. I'll give you a waive if I see you in your prius if it makes you feel better. You'll never get it, I had more than just A problem and  I don't expect my troubles to influence anybody's decision .... think or should I say drink for yourself.

I may be new here, but I know that if you need to "scrape, borrow, beg and plead" to buy a toy you are in way over your head..... :nixweiss:

Gentlemen,
Nobody's going to argue that HD's are not without their problems.  Nor are the dealers.  And certainly the CVO's aren't either.
Have you ever owned a car that was flawless?  Or a house?  Or a spouse?   :P

Nobody on this site should be so pro Harley (OR PRO GW OR BMW) that they put other people's choices down.  There's just no room for that here.

I have owned a Wing and loved it.  I have lusted after BMW's and Indians, but then I have lusted after a dozen different HD's other than the one I own.

This particular thread is a discussion about the rumor (or truth?) that HD may be turning out less CVO's in 2018.

If you want to debate the pro's and con's of buying decisions or spending money, or even what kind of bike you prefer...start your own thread.

But above all, be polite.
