Ibought my softtail before i could ride it. Brand new off the show room floor Bakersfield Ca. At the time I was learning to ride I bought a Crash and Burn bike, I did crash and burn on it...Took the Cvo softtail home parked it in the garage. My husband said ill tell you when your ready. A few months later i jumped on my Screaming Eagle and im still riding her..I think i got 40,000 miles on it...
Orange and Black...boy do I get the compliments on her... I call her Clockwork Orange, shes a crazy bitch like me....

I agree with you guys about anything more than a solo rider on the Convertible.
That's why I also have an Ultra Classic that I had converted to a trike by California Sidecar. Here is my riding partner on a trip we took to Lake George.
Can't get a more comfortable ride!

Hello all
My first post on this cvo site and found some usefull information already.
I sill have mine after buying new 3 years ago, and still loving the ride. I was told by harley australia that in 2012 there were only approx 1500 made of the convertible and 152 ended up in australia. So in years to come they may be worth something or hold some of there value up, so I will not be selling mine.
cheers

My 2012 is still going strong. I have 23K on it now. Bought new in spring of 2012 I seem to remember. On the second engine now and it seems to be performing much better than the first engine. Getting about 40 mpg steady. Still want to get some different pipes for a richer sound and to improve on the power. Not the best ride, especially when 2 up, but so far have not found another model to make me want to trade up. When the MoCo makes that model, I'll be trading up. Pork.

Still the proud owner of the 2010! (The best year IMO) No intentions of getting rid of her. Harley has gone backwards since this model and NOTHING they have made since would even make me consider a new bike. I sold my 2005 15th Anniversary Fatboy for an Ultra in '09. What a mistake! But it eventually led me to the CVO Softail Convertible. My son has his eye on my CVO (he owns my 2005 Fatboy) so a buyer is already lined up. But it ain't for sale!

Still have my 2011 I bought in Oct 2010 and still love to ride her.
Hey Pork- didn't you start out with a 2010?
And are you going to Sturgis this year?
If so you need to stop in Billings MT and say hi

I still have my Inferno Orange 2010 ConV since new and like many of you this bike fits me like a glove. I agree that 2 up riding can be a challenge but I slap on the AirHawk 2 cushions when the wife and I head out for extended rides and they make all the difference.

I may have other bikes down the road, but this one will always be in my garage...

Bob Bob, yes, I started out with a 2010. I think that red/silver combo was the best yet but especially liked the bags. Sort of a PonyExpress effect. But the bag on the left really left me wondering what??? what was the purpose of having a large unused space below the bag?

The 2011/2012 bags have about 33% more space but the appearance is just sort of blahhh.. However I do like the locking ability of the 2011/12. Why can't the MoCo just take what I like and combine it all into an awesome bike??? hehe. I haven't been back to Sturgis in about 3 years but will stop in next time I go that direction, even if not to Sturgis. 6 trips. I just got back from 1158 miles from SE Washington to Idaho (Salmon) on a nostalgic ride. Bike operated flawlessly, even with 66 miles of gravel/rocks. Scary but the bike held to the road and I stayed in the saddle. Waiting to see what 2016 will provide for new prospects. 25K just logged on this bike. Actually closer to 26K now. Pork.
