My first CVO - 2012 Road Glide Custom CVO
« on: December 02, 2011, 06:04:08 PM »
Hi all !!!   Just bought my first big bike this past weekend.... couldn't resist after laying eyes on the Skunk.  Just wanted to introduce myself (and Penelope... yes, Le Pew) from here in Southern Cali.  I love virtually everything about this bike; except as a tall person (6 ft but shrinking), the wind splitter isn't as efficient as I'd prefer.  I've got the Klock Werks 12" shield on order and should be receiving next week.  I'll update this post after installing it.  Next improvement will be replacing the seat with one with a backrest.  Unfortunately the stock seat isn't designed to have a backrest; so I'm going to have to sacrifice it and the gorgeous stitching for something more... common.... but more comfortable.   Any suggestions?

Otherwise.... power, paint, suspension and handling is all unbelievable and I'm a very very happy girl !   :orange:

Welcome from Virginia.
Nice choice of bike.  :2vrolijk_21:

If that shield doesn't work for you there is a company on here that gives a discount for site members and has fantastic customer service and will allow returns too, it's Clearview Shields. Their site has section on selecting the right height shield.
As far as seats, you have lots of choices and each member has their favorite, some brands are Mustang, Corbin and others mentioned in old threads. Thing is what may be comfortable for their rump might be hard or uncomfortable for you or vice versa.
