~44k, I just don't see it.  Ever since the CVO busted past 38k its been hard to justify IMO.  Now 17k more than a Limited! Come on HD!!

The paint sure doesn't justify any increase.

The days of the CVO are DEAD. Who comes up with these colors. All blacked out and no chrome. Just can't get into it. Time to buy a regular limited. :(

DAM !   Who picks these colors and paint schemes ?  No Imagination at all !  definetly not CVO material.   Remember when you could walk down the street and see a CVO and say to yourself ... WOW !   Look at that paint !, look at the chrome! , look at that bike !!!    The last several years of CVO motorcycles didn't have the "WOW" factor anymore and it seems that its getting worse each passing year.      Sad day.      Looks like the days of the CVO are over.        :soapbox:

IMO the blue is acceptable - the others much, much less so.  And for the price point - well, no way.  I think there will be a lot of CVOs sitting on showroom floors in the next few months.  Just sayin'.

Well... The blue is nice.  This is the first year I haven't seen at least one color of every model that I really want to own.  I'm confused and sad about this, to say the least.

After a day of thought,  maybe the company thinks  the "M's" would like the colors of the 2018's? I cannot come up
with any other reason for the color choices!

Millenials won't touch them because of the price, I am one.  They could paint them to order, let you pick chrome/black, etc, and at $40k they still won't get millenial buyers.  And the small portion of millennial buyers willing to look at $40k bikes would rather have a full custom and are willing to spend the $50+ for a big wheel custom.

And they have obviously officially decided to abandon the baby boomers completely. So much for any sign of appreciation for our 40+ years of support for them, throughout the AMF years, the 3 year waiting lists and constant quality failures. If they think the last few years have been tough they better hold on because they ain't seen nothing yet.
