Just wondering..Does anyone know why the CVO Streetglide doesn't have powerlocks? Particularly the 2015?! Also, What do I need for installing powerlocks on my CVO Streetglide?

Thanks In Advance!

I briefly looked into it......got expensive real quick......lost interest.

The 2017's have them. It should be able to be adapted to the older Streetglides.

Last time I checked Harley doesn't offer a kit to retrofit the power lock system to other bikes.  I imagine if someone wanted to add the production system from a 2017 CVO that is equipped with power locks to a 2015 that isn't, he could order all the parts and try to add them.  The part price would probably be in the low to mid four figure range, and I have no idea how much labor would be involved but I assume it would be significant.  I'm guessing it might be less expensive and less likely to create problems if you just traded the 2015 on a 2017 if you really want power locks.

I saw a kit the other day, can't remember what site. It was 14+ and around 700 bucks. Did a quick search didn't find it.

 I got to say though I really like it on my 17 but it's not $700 worth of like.

The power fork lock alone is about $625 from Harley, and that doesn't include the $170 key and fob or the saddlebag lock mechanisms or or the $350 BCM or the wiring or any other the other electrical relays and miscellaneous bits.  If the aftermarket can come up with a well designed and well built system for $700, they probably will find a market for it.  After all, plenty of Harley riders blow more than that on bling that has no functional value at all.  It's not worth it to someone like me; I'm old enough to remember how to use an old fashioned key to lock my forks and bags, and also old enough to not be in such a big hurry that I think I need central locking on a motorcycle.

I thought about buying two Saddlebag Lock Actuators from Harley and then wiring them up to a cheap Remote Starter kit (Just for the Locks obviously not for the remote start...)
Something like this:

Saddlebag Lock Actuator LT    69201579   $144.96
Saddlebag Lock Actuator RT   69201578    $144.96
Cheap Remote Kit from Amazon    $33.95

I think you could pull off something like that relatively inexpensively...    $325.00 ish   Maybe less if you get the Actuators at a discount.
I would think that all you would need is maybe 2 empty cavities to each saddlebag to wire Lock and Unlock functions...

Looks like you could even pop your trunk lid with that as well

Thanks All for your opinions. I'll just live with what I have now, and if I ever do trade the bike in for a newer CVO model, I'll just make sure it has power locks . Now I'm looking to do an Air Ride system
