If the CVO line-up is really hand built, assembled, whatever, how hard can it be to walk over and grab a few custom ordered painted parts and slap em on?
I think the CVO is at a price point that should offer customer ordered paint colors and schemes.
If a person was able to order the paint and say have to wait 8 weeks to get it, so what.
Don't tell me it would be too costly, it's the same damn body parts that are on all the bikes.
They keep going back and forth with the color matched inner fairings and I don't get that. I love a color matched inner fairing, but I'll be damed if I'm gonna pay $1500-$2000 above what I already paid for the bike to do it.
What your seeing is the lower level bikes rising to the CVO level, and the CVO bikes are somewhat stagnant.
I agree with all of you, a real disappointment, no incentive to spend this year.
