You can still use a Bushtec with their ball conversion.  Doc

I believe the later SERK's are the only ones with the wider rear tire and swingarm.  If you  mind looking at the hitch when the trailer is not used, the vertical Bushtec is the only way to go..  Like Doc stated, Bushtec has a receiver ball available for use with their vertical hitch.  To almost hide the Bushtec hitch, you need the V rail rear bumper or Streeglide style rear fender fascia.

HitchDoc will not work - don't waste your time and $$$.  HitchDoc makes a great hitch and IMO, the best looking hitch on the market.  The rear-end on the CVO bikes is wider and, as far as I know, there is no way to make it work.

The best option for a SEUC is the Bushtech.

Use a Bushtec on my '07 with bumper to pull a Wags trailer and it works great.  Mc Hitch makes 2 models, one with bumper. one with out. Check the tongue height on your trailer though, hitch w/out bumper is higher. N line makes a heavyduty hitch, big a$$ chrome one piece. http://www.n-line.com/hitches.htm

...also a bolt eliminates the noise of the hitch banging around in the receiver. Doc
