Nice and clear pictures, that black/brown (Antique Gunstock) looks great in the sun.
The MOCO should have these quality pictures on there web site instead of photo shop pictures.
Would be good to see the Red in the same quality pictures to.

CVOStreetglide · « **Reply #15 on:** August 08, 2011, 10:58:53 AM »

OK THE FOLLOWING BIKES ARE SOLD:

SAVANNAH, GA

CARTERSVILLE, GA

BOTH were MSRP AND were Dark Slate/Black Diamond.

When I picked mine up Saturday there were 5 other customers hoping I wouldn't. I would expect future buyers to run into dealers asking for premiums over MSRP in the $3-5k range.

So, if you are on the fence and have access to a MSRP deal I would lock it down now.

This is odd considering that the stock market is in the preverbial toilet and heading lower.

Good Hunting to those who are in the market for one.

Regards

Jerry

Cool Springs Harley in Franklin, TN has a Citrus coming in next week.....and they want $3k over MSRP for it. I told them they could keep it.

I bought my 2010 SEUC from them at MSRP and got a free set of Rineharts with it. I told the salesman I would not buy another bike there. So much for repeat business...

That sucks man.

Should'nt be anymore than MSRP.

This how I see it,
Put your name down with a deposit to lock it in.
Bike arrives and its yours.

If you decide not to go ahead next person in line has the option and your get your deposit back.

Everyone is happy.

How hard can it be?
Will this push the price up on new models to come?

Dealers selling over and above MSRP should be delt with by MOCO.

Dealers can charge whatever they want by law. The only thing the Motor Co. can do is increase production numbers to satisfy demand. It's real simple, don't pay more than MSRP and the prices will come down. I have never paid more than MSRP for a new bike and never will. Shop around and don't get caught up in the hype. There will be plenty CVO bikes sitting in dealers this winter...buy one then and you will get MSRP.

You're absolutely right...I'll wait and find one on the floor in December when the dealer is hungry and trying to figure out how he's going to buy Christmas for his kids...

I will never pay over MSRP for a CVO...if $10k over the price of a stock bike is not enough, then they will need to find another sucker besides myself to help them keep the doors open.

NorEaster · « **Reply #20 on:** August 09, 2011, 06:56:33 AM »

I agree, there is no way I would ever pay more than what HD says the bike should sell for. For one, the MSRP already reflects the uniqueness of the bikes, and their limited supply. And two, because anything over MSRP is an instant loss the second you drive off the lot.

It's not like the old days when Harley's would retain their value. And even though the CVOs do seem to hold their value a little better than regular bikes, they do still lose enough value already, without starting off way behind by over paying.

And you can be damn sure your insurance company will not be giving you that 3-4k premium you paid, if god forbid, you total the thing or it is stolen.

You can bet HD is watching the inventory levels, floor time and ultimate sale price info and using it to make decisions on production quantities. This is exactly why they released the 12 Touring bikes early this year and also why we are seeing CVO bikes running for more than 2 years like they used to run. As long as dealers are gouging the public, and demand stays high, they will run these CVO Streetglides every year just like the Ultras to try and satisfy demand.

I have been to that dealer... Many Many times.... go in there with cash in hand... they sell a ton of bikes and I was told they have the high prices cause people will pay them.... but if you go in there with a price in mind stick to it... you might just get it.... they want to sell bikes and if you have a reasonable offer they will take it... they want to be the dealer with the most sales.....

First of all I'm not going to drive 250 miles to see if I can make a deal with a dealer. I will have it bought before I leave my house. I'm not interested in wasting that kind of time on the "chance" they might work with me. Second, I felt like MSRP was a reasonable offer. I called them twice with the same offer of MSRP, and was shot down both times. I wouldn't go in there now to buy a t-shirt...I don't care how many bikes they sell or if they are the highest volume dealer in the country. It's pure greed and I'm not the sucker they're looking for to sell a bike to.

Ordered my 2012 CVO Street Glide Ruby Red/ Typhoon Maroon 5 weeks ago and it will be delivered to my dealer this weekend. At no time did they quote a price more than the MSRP. The only changes I am making are the addition of Rinehart 4 inch pipes. I have not seen this bike on the floor anywhere so I hope I love the color! I am partial to red, so I'm sure I will love it! Has anyone else seen this bike color in person? Can't wait to get it

This past Monday I went to my dealer and ordered a red one. They said it would be in sometime in mid-to-late October. Got home from work today and there was a message on my answering machine saying it arrived.

FWIW, I paid MSRP. No haggling. They told me due to demand they ask MSRP and I said "fine".

Sorry, I have been quiet about what I knew was available in my area until after I took delivery on mine. I just bought the Orange CVO SG from Kingwood HD (Houston, TX). There is a black SG at Independence Harley in College Station. They are asking 2500 MSRP, but I know it is very negotiable. If you go there ask for John.

Fort Hood HD (red) and Gruene HD are both supposed to have one on the floor during the first week of September. Caliente in San Antonio says he is expecting his any day. Now these could just be sales people trying to get me to come see them, but it is too late now.

Talking to a salesman at Toronto Harley and they will be seeing there first 2012 SG on February 12, 2012. They have no deposits yet.

Had my deposit for my 2011 on July 27, 2010 and it arrived on December 8, 2010. Looks like things are slowing down. Hopefully the quality is better on the 12's.

Hello. There is a citrus CVO SG at Earl Smalls in Marietta, GA, I think. Probably won't be on the floor very long...

I just joined this forum when I took delivery last Friday evening of a new 2012 CVO SG in Hot Citrus / Antique Gunstock. I paid MSRP at H-D of Macon, GA. They said they sell CVOs at MSRP with no add'l markup, and they did. Very nice staff, and they treated me very well. Of course, I guess you should expect to be treated well when you drop over 32 G-notes on a friggin' motorcycle!

I went on a group ride yesterday, and I got lots of compliments, which helped to stroke my ego and prevent buyer's remorse. The 400w, 8-speaker audio system just rocks. I love this bike!

It handles more like a sport bike than a bagger - especially after I cranked the rear shocks up to 9 turns. It has plenty of power stock - but I'm going to put on a Fullsac X-Pipe and the 2" baffles, and put in a set of Andrews 54 cams and Cometic .030" head gaskets, and then have it pro tuned with a TTS - so it will still look stock but have loads more power. Heh heh...

Ride Safe!

I'll be happy to take a bunch of pics in the morning and post them at the link you provided. Went out riding again solo today, and stopped by Killer Creek H-D in Alpharetta and loaded up on accessories. I had to bring the truck back to carry them all home.

I know, I know... accessories for a CVO? Well, I read recently that the average CVO buyer is 54 (like ME), and buys an average of $3500 worth of accessories, as compared to $2300 for non-CVO buyers. Guess the kids don't have the money yet for these very expensive toys! OK - here's what I bought...

H-D shop manual ($) and CVO SG Supplement ($),
triple windshield bags ($),
long angle chrome highway peg mounts ($$) cuz it didn't come with them and the rider boards are WAY smaller than my Evo E-Glide's are and not very comfortable to have my feet on all the time (moving the passenger pegs to the guards),
SG-styled passenger floorboard kit ($$$$) and CVO chrome inserts ($$ x 2) to match the rider board inserts,
54383-11 reduced reach seat ($$$) with rider backrest ($$) that I can actually sit on for more than 30 minutes at a time without my aging back screaming at me for lumbar support,
4-point chrome docking hardware ($$),
chrome caps for the docking hardware ($),
detachable tour pak mount ($$),
color-matched Tour Pak in the CVO SG Hot Citrus paint scheme ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$) (May seem sacrilegious to put a TP on a CVO SG... but I GOTTA have a TP for trips!)
smoked side lights for the Tour Pak ($$),
fitted liner for the Tour Pak ($),
carry-out liner bag for the Tour Pak ($ - have one in the E-Glide's Tour Pak and love it),
lid organizer for the Tour Pak ($),
passenger backrest for the Tour Pak ($$).
Oh, and sales tax ($$$).

Let's see... that's ANOTHER 4 G-notes from my pocket to the MoCo's... and I haven't even started on the much-more-important performance mods yet! That'll be another $1000 in parts, and about $500 in labor - I'm having a friend install them cuz he knows what he's doing and has done it before. Oh well, can't take it with me, so I might as well enjoy the fruits of my labors while I can... plus the wife's out of town and I'll have all this installed before she returns! With a little luck, she'll never even know! The seat and backrest are already on, and what a difference! I can actually sit on it - IN it is more like it - and relax with excellent back support! Doesn't look as cool as the stock seat, but is WAY more comfortable... and when you're my age man, comfort COUNTS! Docking hardware is on and waiting for the TP, but it may take up to 30 days to get it though, since it's a "paint to order" item. Highway pegs are next up this evening... then it's Miller Time!

Legend for above: $ = $100 or part of $100...

BTW - anyone who buys one of these bikes will definitely want to replace the tiny little stock windshield with a Long Rider 7" or 9" one with the recurve. I put the 7" one on, courtesy of a friend who had an extra one, and it made a world of difference in the amount of wind hitting me. The stocker was letting so much wind by that it was lifting my helmet at highway speeds - but that problem went away with the 7" Long Rider, which scoops the wind up and over my head nicely. Good product - especially FREE!

I have my Hot Citrus/Antique Gunstock CVO SG ordered and on its way. Adding passenger footboards was one of the first things that I discussed with my dealer. I was told that the MoCo does not make a passenger footboard insert to match the stock Rumble Collection rider footboard inserts.

If I am missing something I would love to get the correct story. I would also be very interested in the part numbers for both the passenger floorboard kit and the passenger floorboard inserts. Any help would be appreciated!!

They DON'T? That's disappointing. Makes me I wonder how I got THESE! P/Ns are 51502-09 and 51510-09. Your dealer needs a better parts guy... Killer parts guy found them in the CVO book straightaway, and they even had them IN STOCK!

Notice they DO NOT say "Harley-Davidson" in the little chrome section, as the rider footboard inserts do - it's just smooth. I find that a bit odd... but at least they match.

The floorboards are from the Rumble collection, NOT the Streamliner collection, and of course they make them for the passenger floorboards, they come on the CVO Ultras, and have since 2010.

Come across similar issues in the past, all comes down to Product Knowledge.

Unfortunately, some dealers just do not have very knowledgable people working for them. Especially when it comes to CVOs and their unique and sometimes VIN protected parts. The above Rumble floorboards are a prime example. If you search Harley's website you will not find any Rumble collection parts what so ever. Even if you type in the part number for them directly, you still will not find them as a valid HD part. This I suspect is due to them being a CVO only part and it being Harley's scheme to keep others from trying to order them for their non-CVO bikes.

In the past, I have had to tell my local parts guy which year and model supplement catalog to go look in to find the CVO part I wanted to order. But to be fair to my local dealer, they are small and only see about half of the CVOs that come out. And on top of that, I'm sure the parts guys rarely has to order the unique CVO only parts for those limited number of bikes. So if they do not know every CVO only part or which years or models they come on I cannot fault them for that.

That's where this site and the great group of people on here come to the rescue. Collectively the members on this site have more knowledge about CVOs then I suspect any dealer will ever have.

The dealer I work with has always been great - very knowledgeable and very helpful. This will be my first CVO, however, so I have never needed assistance with them before. I suspect you hit the nail right on the head when you say that they probably do not have enough experience with CVO's to have the same level of expertise that they definitely have with standard models.

I am very happy that I have found this site and appreciate all of the helpful tips and comments very much. Best of all I am now going to be able to put matching passenger floorboards on my bike when just a couple days ago I did not think that would be possible!!

W-W-WHAT??? $36,900??? That's $4,000 over list, and is absolute highway robbery! What BS! I paid strict MSRP at H-D of Macon, and not a penny more. That's the way Greg Sassaman, the owner, does business. Anyone who wants one can just order it from Jerry Green there, and tell him I sent you. My $50 referral fee would pay for two of the chrome caps on my docking points... Whoo-Hoo!

No one should ever get gouged by paying more than MSRP. These toys are outrageously expensive AT MSRP... if my only choice was a 2012 at $3K over, or a 2011 Krypto at list... I'd go with the Krypto... it's a killer color! But I'd probably just walk out the door from any dealership playing those kind of games...

Considering the way HD is handing out the CVO's this year, I understand why some people are paying over MSRP. The dealerships do not get to order the bikes and have no say even over what models they get. They only get to pick the color. The closest HD shop to me has 4 people on a waiting list for the Black Dimond Street Glide CVO, two with over 15k down. The first one this dealership will get is in Late November or Early December. They have customers with money in hand and have to wait 6 months to deliver 1 first bike, the 2nd guy on the list will have to wait until arond Feb 2012. Every HD shop in the area has multiple names & cash on lists for all CVO's. Supply & Demand. In the Seattle area the demand is high because the economy is solid.

I was finally able to locate my Black Diamond Street Glide, I have to travel out of state to get it, but I will be paying MSRP.

Sounds like it's a return to H-D's Glory Days of several years ago, when you had to wait several months to get ANY new Harley - in spite of this crappy economy. Should I feel lucky to have had the "opportunity" to plunk down $32,699 plus tax and freight and doc fee, plus another $2000 for the extended warranty, plus ANOTHER $4,000 in add-on parts so quickly? Actually, I DO! These things appear to be as scarce as hen's teeth this year... and I found one in just over a week of looking. I got very lucky indeed, it would seem. But maybe I should have bought HOG instead, and watch it shoot up at the next earnings call... NAAAAAA!!!

Quite true! But if you get in at the right time and out at the right time, you can make enough in gains to buy a new CVO for CASH! Of course, the opposite is also true. On Nov 22, 2006, high-flying HOG closed at $75.50, and less than 2 1/2 years later on Mar 5, 2009 it closed at a dismal $8.20 - for a loss of over 90% of its former value! Then, again less than 2 1/2 years later on July 21 of this year, it closed back up at $45.66. In that period, it was one of the best performing non-microcap, non-tech stocks around. If you had bought HOG at anywhere near the low, and sold at anywhere near the high, you could have easily more than quintupled your money, and been able to pay cash for anything the MoCo makes.

Of course... I never did buy HOG after the crash, because there was simply too much uncertainty about the MoCo's near-term financial outlook...

But I did just buy my new 2012 FLHXSE3, and I surely CAN ride that! So it's all good...

The owner had a deposit on this bike 2 months ago. They also sold a greenie last week.

I got my first CVO from East Orlando and the GM there was great! The Orlando Old Factory dealership was asking $4k over MSRP for their not in stock Red SESG I wanted. They offered me retail for trade in unseen by them. I wasn't paying anything over MSRP.

When you're asking MSRP +$4K, I guess you can offer to give retail for a trade in.
