I like the painted inner fairing.  Other than that, nothing that really grabs your attention.  JMO.   :nixweiss:

I see a lot of subtle things I like a lot, most of which could be modded on ours.  Main thing to me though was they didn't fall off the edge of the earth and have a tweaker design the graphics, I like what I see.

The seat is interesting......the saddlebag speakers, except like the leg fairing speakers, I'm not willing to give up any storage space for more volumn (I travel too much and need all the space I have).....the painted inner fairing should always be on the CVO baggers!  But can somebody tell me what the hell diamond cut speedometer and tach are?  And why the other gauges aren't diamond cut, if it makes a difference?   Once again.....a job half done. :nixweiss:

Still no update on the radio? Years behind the game with a radio you can sync to your phone like the auto industry.

I also wonder with a removeable rear seat, is a rider backrest still possible ?  That's a must for me anymore  ::)

I thought "diamond cut" was a style of trim ring.   :nixweiss:  But your right, why on only half the guages.  Interesting that they flip flopped the smaller guages and tweeters.

So not to be ignorant but, with saddlebag speakers like that, when it rains...where does the water go that gets thru the grills ?

Play the stereo really loud and the vibrations push the water right back out.   :2vrolijk_21:  I will want to check those out closely before considering adding them to my 2011.  My saddlebags are basically full now, so I really don't want to lose any more space.

I was thinking the same thing.  I'm too old and fat to ride without a backrest very far.   :cucumber:

I see chrome mirrors and a seat that looks convertible to a solo.

Don't know about the rear speaker locations. Appears that the riders legs will cover them??

Chrome instead of painted cow bells and they swapped positions with the tweeters and guages this year.  I like the illuminated CVO Console...might have to upgrade to that...
