Only changed lifters once, it's a CVO 103, not a 110. That's the reason I wanted an '06, just for the dependable SE 103 motor. The lifters were changed at 83K when HD-Dude rebuilt the motor. I kept it stock except for the .583 cam and the welded, balanced and pinned crank. Should be good for another 100K!

at 20k put some S&S premiums in … still sounds like a it did with the OE lifters
If your taking about a 110, put a 24D cam in and it will be as quite as a mouse

Milestone today, literally.

The 2006 CVO Ultra clocked 100,000 miles. Fittingly it happened on CA-1, The Pacific Coast Highway. No better place for this rider who calls California home. I was northbound just outside of Santa Cruz when the odometer rolled over at 2:31pm. I snapped a couple of pics and rode on.

I need to acknowledge a few people here. First and foremost "WrongWay" Dave King who sold it to me in immaculate condition with 52K on it. Actually I need to start by thanking the "Bovine Gigolo" Don Davis for selling Dave the '05 Teal SEEG so I could buy this '06. Next I need to acknowledge "HD-Dude" Jim Schloffel at Metal Dragon. Jim's excellent hands keeps it running in tip top shape in spite of what I do to it. I specifically bought the '06 because I wanted the CVO 103 motor. After hearing and seeing first hand all the 110s issues, I looked no further than this one. When I bought this bike my goal was to go between 80-100K miles before doing any engine work. I made it to 83K. I told Jim I plan to keep and ride the bike and dependability was number one. With his rebuild I expect to go at least another 80K. The bike shows it age and wear well. Some of the chrome is pitting, and there are a few nicks and scuffs on the paint. But all in all that's not really much I can complain about.
 
Special thanks to Alan Paz, John Shimada, and James Clegg who logged a lot of the same miles side by side with me. Their brotherhood means a lot to me.

Oh,...the last time I asked how many members have a CVO with 100k on the clock, a lot of you replied with your aggregate total,...LOL!!

So I will ask again: How many here have 100K on their CVO? And I'm talking 100k on ONE bike.

 Such a cool day for my friend! I'll never forget that smile you wore the day I told you it was for sale, we were up at The Deer Lodge. A photo from the day you took her home as yours:

First post , long time member.....  My 2009 Street Glide just rolled 151,000 miles on the odometer. 60 K since the motor was rebuilt( crank runout on sprocket side). DD7 transmission for the last 8,000 miles. Runs so good I hate to think about getting a newer ride!  I love this forum. Thank You!

Made a trip to near Dallas to see Carol Burks and had him install the front cartridges.  He sent me the rear shocks in March and I installed them myself.  Before I left, he checked the rear shocks and fine tuned them and replaced the spring because he thought it was too heavy. He put in a lighter one and what a nice difference.  The bike now floats and eats up the curves. Then I spent 5 days in the Ozarks "testing" them out.  During this trip I turned 100,000 miles on my Road Glide. Love that bike and will continue to ride it until I can't.   (posted this in several different areas of the website, please disregard if you have read it before)

Congratulations on the 100,000 and the trip to Carol! We are really close to both of those milestones on our 09

My 2010 had 100K on it when I traded her in July 2017.  Got a new one with 55K on it already.
