Wouldn't that be nice . . . . 

[ParadigmGuy]

That'd be awesome, but not likely. HD is going to catch up on technology in the next couple years, then performance. Look for 2023 CVOs to be awesome.

They definitely have to beef up the oem transmission before they would do that.... 2022 will be new frame and suspension.. First things First. Extra power is always nice, but H-D has other things to worry about first.

What’s that going to be like on a 131 with a stock tune and a cat converter...won’t that burn you up?  I’d rather see a water cooled OHC engine for the baggers.

It will be no different than the current 131 Kits.  They still have cat converter and an EPA compliant tune. 

I do think the 2021 CVO will have a bigger than 117 motor.  Not sure on size, maybe 122.

I would say the 122 would be an easy guess for the 2021 CVO models.

Speaking from experience there.

You have yours all back together yet?

Yes indeed my friend... Mine now has a Grudgebox on it...

How do you like it?  Same ratio as stock correct?  It will just take lots more abuse.

[scotman623]

Dave, Gear Ratios are higher then oem... The Grudgebox 5th gear is the same ratio as oem 6th gear... Grudgebox 6th is 250rpm higher than the stock 6th gear... My bike makes enough power so I cannot really feel the difference in the gearing... Still pulls like a freight train in any gear... So I would think my bike now has to be Dyno tuned in 4th?? Something to ask my motor builder about...

As these are all opinions. I say nothing changes except paint. Money is not going to be spent to design and change options or gain certification for larger ci motors which will basically have no return financially. Recertication is expensive. Unless it is already been done, then no major changes, if there are CVO 2021 bikes.

The 131 is EPA approved or Harley would not be able to sell it as both a Kit and a replacement engine.  So no real cost to install it into a 2021 CVO,  The 131 is approved for all touring models. 

Just released the 131 for softtailes this past week. 

Paint will be the only change except maybe CVO getting as bigger engine as no design cost in that.

Frame really needs to be updated as its going on 12 years old.....

I don't think that it's available in California yet.

[CVOMOE!!]

I’m thinking no new CVO’s for 2021. 😁

[SHRADER]

I don't know what is coming but it must be significant. One dealer around here has only 9 new bikes between two stores and has reduced the price of a red and white road glide special, the one with the number one in the paint, which is normally 29000 plus, to just over 25000. They sold a blue CVO limited which is normally 44000 for 36000.
Another dealer I know told me that HD reps are going around to the dealers and giving them some type of rundown on 2021 and were making them sign confidentiality agreements beforehand. He and his family have owned this dealership since the eighties and have never had to sign an confidentiality agreement beyond any language in the dealer agreement.
