CVO Deluxe Interest/Lack of??
« on: August 22, 2013, 01:10:39 PM »

Based on the number of posts on the forum regarding the CVO Deluxe I am guessing most of us aren't impressed- that is my feeling.  They could have done so much more with it.  I think they will have a difficult time selling these.

Softail Deluxe tank paint is too bold and spoils the whole look unless your into those swirly looks.
Other than the tank paint it sure looks good and looking forward to laying my eyes on one.

To me it looks like a attempt to enhance the CVO Softail Convertible which wasn't a hot seller over the years either.

Wish I could but my rotation has me off shore working then.

I like the bike for the most part, rims should have been spoke.

A properly-executed CVO Heritage Softail Classic could have literally ROCKED THE CASBAH...

I just added a '13 red/white Deluxe to my collection, and when I saw that they were coming out in CVO for '14 I was a bit nervous to look. However, I'm not impressed at all with the paint schemes, so I left the website satisfied with my purchase...  :coolblue:

I am glad they did not do a CVO Heritage this year.  My wife would have insisted on her getting one, especially if it was 100% retro or vintage looking.  She loves her heritage for local stuff, the Street glide for any trips over 200 miles.

The wife test rode a CVO Deluxe (Red Sunglo) today and in person the bike looked great.  Different yes, but we liked it and so did most of the people at the demo rides/dealership.  The bike rode great and has been getting a great response in many groups I've talked to this week.  My wife is 5'2", 110 lbs, inseam 28" and the bike fit her perfect...  So while it seems the CVOHarley folks don't appreciate it, many other folks do.  For what its worth...

My first H-D was a softail (Fatboy) and they have a special place in my heart... The only thing I think the MoCo missed the mark in the CVO Deluxe was the wheels. If they had have stayed with a nice spoke wheel with the wide white walls I think they would have stayed true to the "roots" of that model. Either way... beauty is in the eye of the beholder and each to their own. :2vrolijk_21:

As far as missing the spoked wheels...  Personally I preferring the wagon wheels over spokes since it is much easier to fix a tubeless tire on the side of the road than it is a tubed (spokes) tire.

The demo rides are at Grand Rapids, MI HD all weekend....

It looks great!  Keep the wheels the same!  Much easier to repair on the side of the road, trust me, been there done that...  We rode the red one yesterday and are now searching for the maple and atomic orange before we pull the trigger....

Have fun!!!!
