Okay - I'll throw it out there:

It's the "look"

Parked at the mall, every person walking by slowed down and gave it the "look"

Most guys walking up, circled it and gave it a full "look"

On a road trip with my brother and father-in-law (both on standard classic glides), I'm riding tail end charlie, we pass a group of riders pulled over on the opposite side of the road.  They both pass and  got a some waves - I got the full on "look" from ALL - all heads turned and followed as I passed.

Come on, admit it - every single one of you LOVES the "LOOK"

Basically, it's the confirmation that you made the right choice when you bought your ride.

Funny thing is, for me anyway, I really wasn't expecting that to happen - but there it is anyway...

Right on Sparky...X2!!!!  :2vrolijk_21:  I have to agree.  When riding into work I routinely have cars pacing and looking at the bike.  These machines stand out from the crowd, no doubt about it.  That was very rare on my other bikes.

The shear smoothnest of the ride itself... at any speed.  These Alaskan roads have been busting my shocks on all my trucks, off-road and premium gas, and seemed to punish the Wide Glide pretty harsh at times.  "Sheila" just takes it with a grin, and simply says 'bring it on, I've got this'.  8)

While I know there's a great big difference in the ride comfort between a Wide Glide and an Ultra Classic, the CVO still outperforms many of the standard Ultras, as most of my friends up here that had previously owned Ultras before they upgraded to their CVO Ultras, have all said pretty much the same thing.

Oh, and my wife simply loves the ride... so much so, she was willing to ride with me on my Million Mile Monday this year.  We logged in 840 miles inside of 19 hours straight and she never complained once.   8)

Make sure you have the shop check the rear shocks at the service intervals. I have 22k on my 2010 SEUC and one of the rear shocks was "weeping". The shop is replacing it under warranty.

Ok, I'll admit it: I like getting "The Look"!










even before the mods ,My buddies and I would pull up to bike nite or some festival and everyone would stop and stare at mine to tell me how beautiful it is . actually I was kind of embarressed cause I didnt do anything to it yet
and the guys I was with have been customizing there bike for years and I got all the questions.
                                        Got to admit  it is WORTH IT  :2vrolijk_21:

Funny thing is I know some die hard bikers and they dont even know what CVO stands for  :nixweiss:
