OK, to get back to the true subject of this thread, I'll answer the OP's question one more time.  There is nothing that makes a CVO 110 engine "special".  It's a slightly larger regular production engine, and it's made in fairly large quantities so it isn't exactly "special" or "custom".  It also hasn't been terribly reliable.

Wouldn't that make it special?

Dood, there is a difference between special and "special."  The latter is more of the "short bus" variety though it is demeaning to all the variously challenged and very special young people that might ride the proverbial short bus for them to be equated to a current (as opposed to modern) Harley V-Twin engine.

So what should I expect to pay to have my 110 turned into a 120r ?

A SE Pro 120RX kit to upgrade your existing motor will run you in the $3000 range depending on cams, catchup, lettuce, pickles, etc.  A SE Pro 120R crate motor will set you back $5700-6000.

Too many variables to give a reliable ball park quote for a Jims 120 or larger but expect $6000 as a baseline starting point and go up from there.

Where is that number coming from? If that is a good number, I would imagine it only being parts and not labor.  And it would not be a "bolt on" kit...the motor would have to be pulled and the cases bored, so the labor involved would make the total cost the same or higher than just buying the 120R and doing a motor swap. Then you could at least put the stock 110 on the shelf or sell it to recoup part of the expenses.

Like all such SE kits, the price only includes the parts; no machining, no labor.  And this kit isn't designed to upgrade a 110 engine, it's designed to be used with an existing 120R engine.  The kit is in the 2014 SE catalog btw, click on attached photo for a bigger version.

When I got my Hard Candy Sedona Sand and Blaze Orange with Black Abyss Graphics CVO Breakout, my dealer told me the graphics were hand painted and that if i put two bikes together I would see some differences due to the hand paint. Whether it's true or not, I'll likely never see another like it to compare....and that's the point for many of us. The bike is a Harley-Davidson unlike most other Harleys off the line. I wouldn't change a thing.

Me and my friend went to Harley Festival in St. Tropez this year. Local newspaper reported there were 13.000 bikes attending, and I did not see (tried hard but no success) another Deep Sherwood Pearl 2014 CVO Road King among them. I felt happy.

Thats what I did after looking into "fixing up" my 110 and it was the best thing I ever did. So far (about 8000 miles) it has been reliable and a total "E" ticket! I sold my 110 for $2800 so after it was all said and done I had about the same amount of money in then it would have been to do the whole heads/performance deal I was looking at in the first place.
