Most don't, they just mod their machine into something that they like and doing that you will save money over a CVO
And i have seen some beautifully modded SGS's that look nicer to me than a CVO, at what price i don't know, some probably less and some more.
Nicer is a subjective evaluation and if your end product is nicer to you then you have achieved your goal, however if you do the math you'll find you can not build a street glide into a CVO for the same difference that the CVO costs over a Street Glide special. You'll spend significantly more, even with some ebay Chinese parts, and in the end have a highly modified street glide that will not bring much more, if any more, than a stock street glide on a trade.
This is not a problem if you are building your personal dream bike, and want to keep it.
So do the math, from the 110 wet head engine, lowers, boom II with saddle bag speaker,, amplifiers, chrome front end with chrome axle nut covers, chrome wheels, rear fender with CVO tail lights, extended bags etc., head set speaker system, black gauges, cvo seat, xm module, nav updates, tpms, tank design (flush fuel cap), lighted hand controls, cvo grips, chrome clutch and brake reservoirs, chrome airflow floor boards, brake and shift linkage, and other chrome odds and ends, like the gear shift linkage, premium covered cables etc. Probably leaving a few things out.
Not to mention the paint schemes, if you like one of them, it would be pretty expensive to do a custom paint job, 4 to 10K. However if you don't like the cvo paint schemes i'd suggest, forgetting the cvo.
My late August purchase, with two street glide CVO's on the floor, don't pay more than MSRP, negotiate, a gift card 1K gift card only cost the dealer about 500 dollars, 1000 mile free inspection/oil change, move and or remove all items from your trade to the CVO and or give you the items. Biggest free install for me, were my passing lights, front CD led turn signals, and fairing trim. You will probably not be able to get them to remove your pipes (you can do them yourself). Plus 1500 off msrp, that was my deal. They still made plenty of money and i was satisfied. My rate: .9 special financing from my credit union, always shop for the best money. The best going credit union rate was 1.9, i talked to the branch manager, i had 38 years with them, he talked to the credit union manager, they gave me .9 percent.

These comments only apply to trying to mod a SGS into a CVO.
