Everything works on my CVO.  (Had the radio replaced, and something that went wrong with the cruise is fixed, the "enhancement" is over).

Maybe it's because of the mile high elevation I live at, but my bike is bone stock and it runs like a top.  I haven't had any heat issues.  I just love the colors.  All I need to do it keep the Amsoil fresh, and ride.   :huepfenjump3:

 ;D  Love my new 09CVO.  Best butt warmer I ever had, and very comfortable seat compared to the 03CUSE I had.
Just hit 1k and need to get the fluids changed.  Only 3 weeks on it so far but love the handeling compared to previous bike.
New frame and wider rear tire makes for a much more stable ride in curves, (No more wobble).

Great thread.

I love my '03 SERK. I love the way she roars to life when I press that forty pound button and the way she purrs along when winding through country back roads. I love the fact that when I'm pissed off at the world she's right there with me ripping up asphalt and screaming into the wind. I love that when I'm in awe of God's creation she's right there with me as well, always willing to stop in the middle of nowhere with me for no better reason than to listen to the quiet sound of nature's song. I love the fact that every time I hear that V-twin rumble I think of our beautiful country and her amazing story. I think of Harley's story and how it reflects the American spirit of working hard as hell, weathering the bad times and enjoying the good times. I think of freedom and of all our soldiers who have served and given their lives to protect that freedom. I love how my CVO is more than a bike, it's the flagship line of a world icon Harley Davidson company, and it's a badge of brotherhood that I can share with my fellow CVO Harley riders. It's a family within a family and somethin I feel fortunate to have experienced. That's what is right about these bikes, and I haven't even gotten started.

Ride safe, everyone, and enjoy the hell out of these awesome bikes!  :2vrolijk_21: 8)

This is like the good part of the site. I hope all of the other guys and gals read this thread. It is up lifting and makes you feel good about HD, CVO, the choice you made and the love to ride. I love seeing other CVO's on the road and the best was 2 years ago at York when we went for the tour. Met the Hoist man and a few others. When we were there I met this guy who had a red Glide and he crashed it and rebuilt her to the max. When I was at the 105th. for the parade I saw him there and we remembered each other. (at least he said he did) He just moved to Milwaukee from Virginia. Small world.

It's a special Frat my Brothers and Sisters one that bonds us and is beyond HOG.  It can only be the CVO Experience! Have you ever been experienced? Well we have.
Thanks Jimmy!
Rock and roll on!
Merry Christmas and God Bless!

With all the Harley bashing, CVO complaints and general pissin' and moaning about the MoCo I thought a thread might be in order for those who really enjoy their bikes.  Hopefully, some positive comments can afford some relief from the depressing trend.

My comments?  I love my CVO's.  I like the way the MoCo maintains the marketing that holds my dollar investment far better than any other motorcycle.  I liked my 103's and feel even stronger about the 110 potential.  I think the paint and finish work gets better every model.  Thanks HD!   :2vrolijk_21:

I agree that my CVO has given me many hours of enjoyment and I would buy another one. Is it perfect? ...no but no fatal flaws.
It has been mentioned before that it can be a matter of preception based on the fact that most threads get jacked and the ones with problems can talk about the same problem in any topic thread so it seems like everyone has that problem.
Maybe if there was more of a separation between a "problems" section and a "modification" or general ride section it would show a different picture of our CVOs?
I like the idea of this thread since most folks don't post something like "I got on my bike and had a great day with no mechanical problems."
Ride safe everyone and enjoy!
