Anyone know if there is going to be any midyear CVO's???

[naitram]

nothing announced at the dealer meetings

[mlbraptor]

I hope not.

I wouldn't expect any. They are even delaying the 2013 intros a couple of months from the traditional July intro, from what I've heard. They've got to have their hands pretty full with the 110th anniversary CVO models...

So where did you hear that the bikes were going to be delayed a couple of months!

[DavidG]

I heard the same thing from my dealer; that the 2013 release was to be delayed until September because of the 110 celebration

Is it just me, or is this BS with anniversaries every five years getting a little ridiculous?  What's so special about 110 years?  Wake me up when they reach a real milestone, like building 100 defect free bikes in a row or actually designing and producing an all new bike, not just a very slight cosmetic makeover.  I would think by now that even the faithful are getting tired of Harley changing the paint scheme or a piece of trim and calling it a new model every year.  If they really think they are going to appeal to the youth market with cosmetic changes to Sporties I think they need to find some new market analysis and product development folks.

No not just you ,I am pretty sure theres a lot of us that think that way 
I dont know who there selling this bullsh1t to

If we are going to go off topic and discuss anniversary models in a 2012.5 thread then I wanted to mention that my 2003 Silver and Black Classic is one fine machine.
Per NADA and KBB it's not worth much but for me, it's a keeper. The value of the memories I have had on that bike in the past 9 years have been priceless.
At 55K miles it still has many miles of fun left. I had a plan to buy a 110th Anniversary model but that Blue 12 SERG is calling really bad. No matter what I buy,  nothing will replace my 03 Classic.

3. Dealers believe in it.

See previous post in another thread I made.  I fully agree with you on this one.
