I just received 2018 CVO Road Glide in gunship grey. Awesome bike.... Its still sitting at dealer showroom. However i have question especially for those with gunship grey and orange stitching seat. Check attached pictures of my bike. The seat fitment is poor. There is visible gap between seat and dash and no possibility to adjust it. There is only one such bike Czech republic at the moment so i can not compare but seems to me not right for 40K bike. Can you check your fitment and let me know if its normal? Dealer can order new seat but what if the new seat will be same?!...

I can fix it by drilling new holes into seat to push it more forward. But who wants to drill holes into new bike....

I would really appreciate for detailed pictures of your fitment.

 

I have a gap in mine but not quite as bad as what’s in that photo. Here’s an angled shot of my seat and dash...if I look straight down I can see a white label like in yours, I was going to pull the seat and remove the tab.



I found that if I don’t stare at my ***** when I’m riding I don’t even notice it.

 

Thanks! Thats exactly picture i was looking for. Your gap is practically invisible compare mine.

 

I have ordered Street Glide CVO, and anxious about your issue with seat. As you can see on attached video, on the bikes presented during the dealers show, not gap exists between seat and aesthetic dashboard. Hope this will help you.

You can actually see a gap on mine, it’s just not as visible in that pic. I’ll try and remember to shoot one from up top when I get home.

 

Thanks! Yeah, i saw few these videos from the show and did not notice any gap. I was wondering maybe gunship gray suffers by this issue since the seat is little bit different. But its just different stitching. I think CVO should be perfect, this is just wrong....

 

That would be great! btw which city in SC you are located? I have friend in Sumter.

 

I’m actually upstate, in Greenville, about 2.5 hours away. Where are you in the Czech Republic? I’ve only been to Prague & Pilsen - not too familiar with other areas...

 

Shoot guys I saw the same model unveiled at the local and yea it was the most beautiful bike I had ever seen man !
Pictures don't do them justice hey.
Cheers out.

 

I live in Pilsen so you know Hope you tasted our beer. I am also very often in Prague.
