If you want and can afford the CVO then get it. If IO could've afforded a CVO Ultra Classic I would have purchased one of those.

Cool

Good Example of why not to buy a CVO....50% loss - that's just crazy...and you can find many more...........

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/mcy/1799753150.html

Price reduced From $20,000 You save $4000

This is a Factory Custom (CVO) Dyna Screamin Eagle Edition Harley Davidson

The Color is a Midnight Blue Metalic Flake and Silver Factory Paint

It has a 110 Cu In Engine.

The Original Cost of this Bike "Out the Door" including extras was over $32,000

It has 2,534 Miles on it.

It has Always Been Stored inside a garage and Covered

It has Dealer installed Saddle Bags and a Backrest added

It has a Factory installed Alarm System

I don't think this example applies. The CVO Dyna sold for around $24,995 MSRP. If the guy paid $32K he got screwed at $7K over MSRP. The OP can get the CVO Streetglide at $1500 under MSRP...big difference.

Ya don't buy them as investments. You buy them to ride. This Dyna has been sitting....2534 miles for a 3-4 year old bike! Yeah, if thats all you ride, perhaps a CVO is not the way to go.

In the end, buy what you can afford and have fun.

If want a CVO and can afford by all means go for the one that pleases you best .. My pocketbook can't afford one but still have a great time riding down the road ...

Buddy of mine has a CVO Ultra orange/black. Sure gets a lot of attention. If you can afford it ... CVO.
