Double-din deck?

Wouldn't be surprised if the touring models go to can-bus electrics this year...

Interesting look.

May make a bit of sense.

CARB data released a couple of days ago calculates a bit heavier CVO EG and Limited EG as compared to last year. Maybe a redesigned dash panel adds a minor amount of weight.

Guess we will know this week.

Coolant will add some weight.

Project Rushmore, CVO Ultra Limited, or Street Glide Special, is my best guest.

Well I guess my 2013 I just bought 5 July is now gong to be really dated overnight.

Oh well.

Good news for our local dealer, as they only had 4-5 Touring bikes left at the end of the rally. They sold all the rest.

There are those who want HD to modernize and those of us who like the nuts n bolts nostalgia. That link that I viewed by the O.P. Looks like a HD that was built by BMW.
Personally I don't like it. Jmo

FWIW, your yellowbird is gorgeous.

Stock RG's look ugly....the CVO's really look good.

The RG's need the custom touches, like painted inner fairings, larger wheels, etc.
