Upgrade the decades old suspension system to refrlect the potential power people are getting out of these engines. Last suspension upgrade I think was 01.

I agree with the other about the brakes, however, I think the Race Tuner should come as standard on the bike. Just a thought.   [smiley=beerchug.gif]

Would love to see factory CVO dedicated screaming eagle parts and or parts combinations with dyno back up's. Would love to keep it all Harley but there are very few Harley high performance parts for the 103 motor. Plenty of stuff to get it to 103 but unless your running a carb motor then your basically out of luck. "6 days and counting!" [smiley=laugh.gif]

I'll have to agree with MFG.  A bike you can custom order from the factory just like you order a car or truck.  I realize that most people don't order cars anymore, but I still do.  Takes a while to wait on it, but at least you get exactly what you want.

To me the most important thing they could do is lower the price about 25 grand so I would have more money to spend on upgrades (the wife would still probably bitch) and I could also afford to have a few more CVO's in the garage [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

I'd love to see a high quality dependable radio with built in XM and MP3, hell I'd just be happy if the good folks at Harley could figure out how to make this piece of crap CD changer function correctly.

ABS should be an option.

I agree on ABS (as optional) and on improvement on the radio equipment (CB and mp3)

Having just put in the six speed, chrome starter and inner primary, I'd have to say that the XM radio would be the next place to go to. And yes we could all ask for better quality chrome.

But really, since I paid for the 7 year warranty, I just wish it came with the mechanic to assist! [smiley=vrolijk_6.gif]

Here's a response copied from another site that I visit.  The subject is "What would you ask Willie G?" (I thought that this response is so realistic and true)

I actually met Willie G. in Daytona around 96 or 97, Very down to earth, likeable guy. I don't remember if I asked him anything, we just talked about bikes, bikeweek - typical stuff, for a few minutes. You got to admit, from our perspective, he has the best job in the world. I guess his only problem is you can't please everybody all the time. Damn, what is the matter with him? He is a Davidson, grandson of the founder, that shouldn't be a problem for him at all!!! Oh, I forgot. Let see...........
There is Uncle Sam and the EPA boys constantly looking over you shoulder, gotta take care of them or else. Oh yea, and the Stockholders......mmmmmm, I guess they want the company to be profitable. Gee, you mean they can't make one off custom bikes for 30% less that what they charge for a production model. And the Customers..... don't we pride ourselves in individuality? Heaven forbid my bike looks like anyone elses. They should make it for me just the way I want it, even though how I want it may change from time to time. You know, for all the pissin and moanin about the Moco on this forum and others, I don't see a whole lot of us abandoning our beloved Harleys and flocking to another brand. I, personally, have no desire to ride anything else. Are the prices higher than I would like? Oh yea. But there are always ways to get it cheaper. You just have to know where to look. You know, If I saw Willie G. today and could ask him a question, I think I would ask him "wanna go ride?"

That is a perfect question for Willie G.

My dealer in Matthews is always being asked for discounts and favors.
Him and his staff have treated me very well so I try to only ask one thing of him.
"Ken would you and Cecile like to ride with us?"
Can you imagine owning a dealership and trying to find time to ride?
Can you imagine how it is for Willie G?
