Baton rouge HD has a blue Road Glide Ultra... Pretty color

The Pool Boy said he heard that there would be NO CVO's for 2012. 


































































As you all know, you can't believe what The Pool Boy says.

Yes on CVO's for '12.
No changes in '12 Limited. Just a c-note price bump.

[jimcb1]

does anyboby know why no CVO for 2012 or maybe late release date

[Screamin]

Wait another week for the dealer show.

Saw several 2012 touring bikes @ Sweetwater HD. All had the 103 stock

[Dr.D]

If all 12 touring have the 103 is there still a Limited? If so what is unique about it?

I saw several on the trip to PA and I saw nothing special to peak my interest. Now the new CVO have not been seen. My wife says that if there is a White SESG she is trading.

They don't show the CVOs until after the dealer show (at least that's how it's historically been).  Heck, this year is unique in that they actually released some of the models prior to the show.  It appears that this year, they will also be holding back the release of the softails until then.  I'm betting 103 options in the softails.

Compression releases on 103" ??  Unless they really upped the compression there was not any issues with 103", at least the CVO versions, that would require the addition of something else to fail on a regular basis.

Can't tell what the difference is looking on the website between the "regular" and the "limited" EG Ultra, and I can't see the specs.  Must be some significant difference...it's about $2300 more.  No Road Glide Ultra Limited this year, it appears.  I guess the RG is still the redheaded stepchild of the HD Touring bikes...

I would think the Limited would come standard with things like ABS, heated grips and security system.  Guess we will have to wait until the specs are released to know for sure.

They included the compression releases on the Limited and the factory option Power Pak 103's last year.  Really isn't a direct comparison to the CVO 103's since the primary drive ratio is significantly different these days, and that will definitely affect cranking.  Also depends on the cam timing and actual cranking compression of course.

Haven't seen a post but was shown a copy of the CARB for cvo's and it shows a Convertible, Road Glide Custom, Ultra and Street Glide. All with same 110's. Also shows anniversary Vrod with their (Vrod's) same engine. Anyone see anything different? Lots of 103's in bikes, not just touring.

I agree...there is no comparison between the CVO 103's and the current 103's.  Other than the displacement being the same - there are few other similarities...
