Here's my take on this. I know a guy who bought the 10 Streetglide CVO. Whenever he rode with his friend who had bought a regular streetgide and tricked it out, people would stop and gather around his friends bike and not even notice his CVO. Pissed him off so much he sold it and is doing his own thing with a 2011 streetglide.

The 2011 StreetGlide CVO is awesome, but just can not justify the cost.

Here is an idea, buy the CVO Streetglide, take the 110 and make it a real powerhouse, sell the 08 streetglide to an individual and use that money to buy your corvetter. Cant see having 2 touring bikes at the same time.

This is what I did after owning Sporty, RKC and Ultra...Have a Corvette in my garage for the chilly days that my lady doesn't like to ride on bikes. Works out well for both of us.

I've always wanted to purchase that '09 Orange CVO Road Glide as I have the same dilemma as you are having. It's all about $$$. Maybe someday I'll find a used one with low mileage.

In 1984 I bought my first new Vette and until two years ago I've always owned a Vette. The last year I owned it I hardly ever drove it so I sold it. Took almost a full year before I started missing it. During my Ca. trip I thought how nice it would be to have a Vette convertible on that trip.

CVOs just ain't worth it. Harley's gotta live within the EPA standards no matter what the bike is, so even with 110ci it's just not gonna go and you'll need to make all sorts of mods to get it to run.

I say keep what you got. Buy the Vette if you can.
