For me it was the paint, 110 motor and all the chrome upgrades. With upgrading a standard bike, you often loose at the selling time. CVO's have their higher book values.

I wanted the little gold key in the black leather box  :2vrolijk_21: And of course all the extra this that and the other things that comes with the key.... I haven't heard of any CVO owner that has regretted their purchase.  :nixweiss:

When you walk into the dealer it doesn't matter how many stock bikes are sitting there if there is one CVO in the crowd the others just seem to dissappear.   Plus I'm a CHROMEAHOLIC !!!!!

The others disappear even when there isn't a CVO in the crowd.

Was kinda like when they asked Sir Edmond Hillary why he climbed Mt. Everest...

"because it was there"

Had been considering a new ride for a while. Stopped into a dealership in VA Beach while on a road trip and there it was on the floor. A Spiced Rum beauty. Wife said go for it. Made the deal and picked up the following week.

No regrets at all!

Welcome to the site cueball.  Congratulations on your new scoot.  Great work with the pics :2vrolijk_21:

When you get a chance you should go to the New Member Introduction thread and tell us a little more about yourself.  It will help the others here get to know you a little better.

Again, congrats on the best 2010 CVO :bananarock:

Congrats  :2vrolijk_21: V&H power duels with high output mufflers and a SERT fit mine well. great sound, can't compare it to stock as I had the dealer put it on before I picked up the bike.

Thanks guys ya I have been up all night just looking around at what you guys have or recommend. I was told from a good friend that works in the parts department at HD dealer I should put on Bassani or D&D or the V&H power duals/Hi output slip on. I was a big Thunder Header fan had them on al other bikes and he told me not to do it this time it is the wrong pipe size for the 110. I shure love the sound of the TH but now i need to figure something out soon.

Hawg how is the V&H you like them? How is the sound any sound clips? Thanks

devoinbk, I like the D&D but the ghost pipe that dose nothing but fill the hole i just don't know about that. Is is just a pipe that sits there for looks only? or dose it cross over under the frame and work? Thanks

I run with Thunderheader for years on many different bikes......the best exhaust out there.  Although I believe that's a part of the reason that I'm having trouble hearing certain tones now, at 59. :nixweiss:

D&D Fat Cat is probably the exhuast that would be closest to the Thunderheader.  Not what I'm running, just sayin that's probably closest to Thunderheader. :nixweiss:
