Love the Eagle Eye graphic...with the blacked out look I kinda dig the green but yeah a white or grey would look killer with that graphic. The CVO Road Glide is just badass with that color and lower fairing setup...but man that pricetag!!!

My old Dyna rides on the same roads as a "wallet bike" CVO.

Well, my feeling about the yellow bike is at least similar to what most here are saying. Unlike some folks I know, I have nothing against yellow as a choice of colors. I've built two, one for me and the other for my wife. Bright yellow powder coated jugs on the wife's FXRP, and bright yellow frame and rocker boxes on mine, plus some graphics on both. So yellow's cool with me.

As others have said, this new CVO yellow is horrendous. I can't say it looks like **** or puke, but it does hint of something that comes out of the human body, whether it be snot or puss or infection, or maybe like some of the stuff that came out of my nut-sack a couple of weeks ago after my hernia surgery. Sorry, no pictures, but you get the idea I'm sure.

Graphic is pretty cool, especially the way it aligns between the tank and fairing. Not enough to make up for the color underneath it though, and I would never consider paying what they're asking for it, or anywhere within $15K of that price.

Blues

I wouldn't call it gorgeous, but now I know they didn't flush the boogie, They wiped it on that bike.

Two eye-catching mid-year touring model releases.
Gorgeous and Road Glide are definitely three words that don't go together........

I like yellow bikes, but not THAT kind of yellow.

The CVO is just way too expensive to be worth it to me.

That’s one Fugley color , and they want you to pay extra money for it to .
They also really need to fire all the people in charge of choosing the paint colors and start from scratch !
Anybody thirsty for some Mountain Dew after looking at that bike .
Holy guacamole Batman

Why is the eagle flying backwards, shouldn’t it be facing forward
