Well like being in a military environment, it's ones right to bitch and moan however they please.  So in all fairness and respect to BOTH sides, if Neal is going to make a specific "Bitch and moan about the new bikes" thread, he should also make a specific "Gee, these new bikes are wonderful and I just have to have one regardless of the price or options" thread too.  ::)

Fair enough although I think all of this is more likely to make him inclined to start a new Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday Beer Night thread to go along with the Friday night one!

BTW Ironhorse. Thanks for your service! I do not just support Harley's! I also had this made and installed it a couple years ago.

Thanks TN. Sounds like a great plan, and would like to take you up on it as long as it is one of the 43 states I am licensed to carry! This year my plan is to ride to Alaska! Next on my bucket list. You have to jump through many hoops to have protection going through Canada. :( Unless it is just Bear Spray.

Very True.  Plenty of bitching and moaning during my 20 year Navy career.

I've been a loyal Harley customer for a very long time.  Heck, have a Harley Tat on my arm, Navy Tat on the other one.

Both opinions can be valid and have their place.

Just trying to show you some southern hospitality, not many carry bear spray here, we much prefer Squatch Stop.

Come ride with us in the Smoky Mountains this fall, during the day we ride, in the evening we sit around the camp fire and discuss just about anything.

Thanks for the invite TN. Sounds like a great time and reminds of sitting around the fire in the evening with hunting buddies! My bear hunts also did not include spray.

All this non-Harley "gay" talk makes me think some of you (guys?) need to find other forums to go make out on.

So now back on topic...the 2023 CVO's still get/deserve attention.  Pricey yes...but, CVOs always have been high-dollar right from the start.  I remember the same bitch pitch from the early 2000's about CVOs being overpriced...its the same tune today.  Buy used/low mileage if you want to save some bucks...they're out there.
When your FLHRSEI2 came out, it's msrp was around $27k vs $17k for a regular roadking. Now a nicely equipped FLTRK is around $35k and the FLTRKSE is $54k+. Whole another ball game. BTW, if all the ex cvo riders left this forum, you would mostly be talking to yourself, lol!

Not a bad idea, there are never enough beers or threads about beer.  As a fully retired curmudgeon, every day to me is Friday.  Or Saturday.  Doesn't matter. The calendar on my office wall is from 2019.  I think.  It could be 2017. Doesn't matter.  ;D  From experience if you drink enough beer every day will be like a Friday, but if you are employed I do not recommend this.

As far as the 2023 bikes Harley will sell as many as they make.  Eventually.  Not to me though.

I know, right! So many of us have either outgrown or graduated from the CVO platform. But we still hang together because we like to ride with people with know.

Outgrown or graduated?  That is a tremendously condescending post.  Reading many of your other post over time I don't think (hope) you meant it that way but, a poor choice of words.

Everything has gone up in price commensurate with the times....I paid $28k for my CVO in '03 and $200 (two hundred) for my 47' knuckle in 1969.... so, I fail to see the point. 

I didn't say anyone had to leave...but in case some of you hadn't noticed, this site started out known as FLHRSEI.ORG > CVOHARLEY.COM.  Which to me means its a site for Harley-F'n-Davidson CVO owners to talk about them & help each other out by sharing knowledge with some grumbling occasionally.  It's not really the place for espousing the gay love lust of BMW, HONDA, VICTORY & Etc and at the same time deep bash HD when some of you no longer even own one....so move on.   It's like talking about your f'n Prius on the Corvette Forum...you'd quickly see how kind & gentle those guys would be with you in a heartbeat....I won't even mention what goes on over at ARFCOM.

Just sayin people need know where they're at and stay in their own lane.   There endeth the lesson as Hubbard used to say.

The point is you haven’t bought a cvo since 2003 at least based on your signature profile. Riders like me were regular cvo customers who are not anymore. I still ride Harley’s, just won’t buy another cvo.
