Will you look at a new 2013 SERG?
« on: June 27, 2012, 01:23:26 PM »

Well, when the 2012s came out, some traded in their 09s and for the most part are happy with their purchases. We're coming up to new releases of the RG for 2013 and wondered if or what would get you to possibly trade for a 2013? Do you think that something "new and improved" has been added that would make you say, "Hey, maybe it's time, I skipped the 2012 but the 2013 has me thinking." Do you think that with Willie G retiring the skulls that were on the 2012s have been replaced by the traditional eagle's head on the fairing or did he still have input on the markings? I don't know, it's always tempting when a new model comes out to go to the dealer and start the process but in this present economy, will you take the plunge? I know that this has been discussed when the 2012s came out but if 2013 could potentially be the last year of a SERG for awhile, I have no inside info, I'm not privy to any inside info, just looking at trends, could this be the year the 09 gets traded or sold? For me personally, I can't afford the hit on a trade and I can't dream of starting over with mods, it's just not in the bank. If I had alot of money, then maybe, but in all reality, I can't see parting with my 09 SERG. How you folks feeling, still loving the 09? :-*

 Honesty, I have no intentions to trade my 2009 CVO ROAD GLIDE!

Last of the "Hand Built CVO's", Last year of the Road Glides, first year of the new frame.

Plus, I have mine dialed in and have too money $$$ into it, would never get it back and  

because I have the "Yellow Pearl", it's more rare then the other 2009 color schemes.

Not to mention all the problems that seems to be happening to the newer models.

Also, the Fastest!   :2vrolijk_21:

Ride Safe,

     Just my $.02 but I'll most likely stick with my yellow eagle though we all will look.  I sold my 2004 RG to get the SERG though the '04 was a great bike with a built 103" motor and every extra I wanted.  For me it was the step up to a "Screamin' Eagle," the '09 technology (frame, motor, rear swing arm, larger tires, ABS Brembos), and the new look of the rear end with the dropped bags and flush fender.  That seemed like a big jump and worth the money.  I have gone overboard making the SERG my own (though maybe not by CVO Harley standards), see here:  SERG at 2.75 Yrs. Enhancements Continue?? Still in Love!?  

      No offense to anyone who traded their '09 for a '12 but why?  Color?  I can accept that.  Skulls over Eagles?  Not for me.  There was no significant new technology.  So a trade from an '09 to a '12 seems to me to be a "purchase of passion," and not reason.  For '13, we already (think we) know the motor has no significant changes.  I'm sure there will be the usual HD upgrades to paint schemes and at least a couple of "must have upgrades."  But.... the wet motor is coming.  Not this year but not very far away.  That is technology that will motivate my to look seriously at a new bike.  I'd ask the '12 purchasers, what did you get in your "upgrade" and what did it cost you?  I did not see a significant return there and don't see one for '13.  Now, let us see what they look like when they come out....

^^^^ What he said...

I might be able to turn this one if I get the right deal on a new one!

If I get a good deal on a O/B/W 2000 CVO RG I might stash that as a collector bike.. but for me, everything else is transportation. Rain or Shine.

If you are looking for "logic" in buying a CVO Harley, good luck... We dont buy them because it is a great financial decision and then sink 30% of the value into mods because we are smart...

I agree with the majority here, no way I'll part with my '09 SERG3 - I got it the way I wanted it and it'd take too much $$ to build another like it.  Would admit that putting in the 120R and beefing up the rest of the drive-train to handle it would make for an interesting new CVO RG but it doesn't sound like that's in the cards for 2013 anyway.  Long-live the '09s  :)

Personally, I think they'll take the '12 SESG with all the speakers, lowers, etc., change the colors, and put a sharknose fairing on it and call it the 2013 SERGC.  That
s about all they can do to add to it.

Not trying to start anything by any means, but......

Isn't that what they did to the 2010 CVO Street Glide?  :nixweiss:

Took the 2009 CVO Road Glide and updated real extended saddle bags, took out two gauges, added speakers, attached a batwing and like magic.....

a new model for 2010.


As we all already know, the first CVO Bagger was the 2000 CVO Road Glide.


Just  saying........

You are correct sir!  I had the 2010 SESG.  Like the other post said it came with molded extended saddlebags and moustache bar.  They didn't add the speakers/lowers until 2011, then added the rear saddle bag speakers for 2012 (which I now have. :) )

My bust! I was just saying that pretty much the 2009 CVO Road Glide became the 2010 Street CVO Glide with a fairing "face lift".
