Plow64 - Started with 07 FXSTC, 08 Buell Ulysses, 09 XR1200, 10 Superglide, 10 Ultra, 12 Night Rod Special, 12 Road Glide and now the 12 Road Glide CVO.
My wife does not fully under stand. However I'm 71 and the family has long ago grown and all doing well on there own. No grand kids and these toys do not impact our finances at all. So she tolerates my craziness.
I ride all of them. Have a set goal of none having less than 2K added each season. It's a dirty job but it needs to be done. The Ultra has the most use with 21+K on it. Covered 49 States, 6 Provence's and 1 Territory with them in the last four years.
My son's have already put dibs on which one's they want. I have not told them my plan to ride until I'm 101!

I see just fine thank you. I'm sorry, but that CVO bike is one beautiful machine, but that ugly *** fairing just kills it. If HD would come up with a more refined/sleeker/futuristic fixed fairing design, I'd have one in a heart beat, as I'm sure many others here would also.
When the newly designed Wings first came out, I sold my Ultra and bought a new Wing just because they looked fricking awesome. Honda finely designed a decent looking bad *** touring bike. Even all my hardcore Harley buddies agreed. Now that everybody and their brother has one, and Honda hasn't done jack **** for over 10 years with the design. I went back to the batwing Ultra, just cause I still like the old school nostalgic look, and the fact they updated their frames and improved a few other things.
Like I said... I'd dump my Ultra tomorrow if HD would redesign their Glide fairing, or maybe even come out with an entirely new touring bike. Surely I can't be the only one who would like to see a new design.
