Nice  :2vrolijk_21:

I've been thinking (dangerous) since you can put the rider backrest on the bike with a differant seat. Would it be a big deal to have the stock 2012 seat modified with a small notch in the back to allow the backrest mount to sit in? seems like a good shop could do it and make it look like factory.

I was looking to see if something like that could be done, but there's no room to put the bracket for the backrest under the solo seat as it hugs the frame.  Also, the seat mounts where you would attach the bracket to the fender.  The pillion pad overlaps the solo seat, so you wouldn't be able to make a slit in the seat.  Interesting that they did it this way, but I'll bet they come up with a backrest for this.

Thanks Gary.  This is, IMO, the sweetest looking SE that the MoCo has come out with.  Everything flows and matches.  The wife even says this is the nicest looking SE I've gotten....I just wish the weather would have been better to get some pics in the sun...

Thanks.  :)  That's what I was thinking for a mount too...I know it could be done...perhaps the MoCo is thinking the same thing.

Nice bike and nice pics too. I can't wait until mine gets here. It was supposed to ship to the dealer on the 10th of August, but still no word.

Looks great.
With the right exhaust and tune these things don't need much more.

Thanks Chip...I agree.  After much consternation and talking with the performance guy at my dealer, I decided to go with the combination I stated earlier.  I was thinking of going with the TTS, but my tech at the dealership is much more comfortable with the SESPT, and he did a really good tune on both my old SESG and the SERGU.

Thanks.  I got lucky with my dealer, the first SESG3 they got in was the black one and it lasted all of about 30 mins when they put it out on the floor.  I told them I was interested in the Citrus/Gunstock and wanted to know when they were getting one in (they are slated to get 15 CVOs this year, the most of any dealership in the Mid-Atlantic).  He said that they were supposed to have gotten one already, but it hadn't shipped yet.  I told him I'd take it when it came in; this was about three weeks ago.  I got a call last week that it was in, so I picked it up last Saturday.  No regrets whatsoever with the color choice.  It is so sweet looking.   ;)

Hey CONGRATS, Man! You did just what I did... couldn't wait to take a whole bunch of pics of the new scoot. I LOVE my Hot Citrus FLHXSE3! It just GLOWS in the sunshine!

Raining here today... so I'm taking the opportunity to do some wrenching.. putting some parts on and fixing the iPod. FYI, there's an 8-pin connector on the left side (looking forward) inside the fairing that came completely undone on my bike after 4 days. Took off the outer fairing today to install a hidden antenna, and found it. Now I have my iPod back. If your iPod ever stops working, that's a likely culprit.

Anyway... ENJOY YOUR NEW BIKE!

BTW... I have a pictures thread here:  http://www.cvoharley.com/smf/index.php?topic=66236.0

Thanks NGH.  I'm loving it!!  The sound system rocks on this thing too!!!  Never thought I'd get a $33K ghetto blaster!  Definitely pumps out the tunes.
