I stumbled across this guy about a month ago. Since first finding his videos, I have made it a point to watch all of them. Matt Laidlaw IS the gold standard when it comes to informative Harley sales videos. He seems to know it all. He does not seem to be at a loss for words...ever. If he is using a script, I am not aware of it.
It would seem he has plenty of experience making videos. I am not a video editor but his videos seem about as good as it gets when it comes to infotainment. He comes across as both sincere and professional. When you couple real product knowledge with experience, you get what we see in his infotainment videos. A real pro. If he is as good at selling bikes as he is making videos, he needs his own store.
One last thing. Laidlaw reminds me of the legendary broadcaster Paul Harvey. Paul
was so smooth that he could deliver a sales message without you being aware you had just been served a commercial.
I test rode the Road Glide yesterday. Wow!!! My last bike was a 2009 deluxe with the 96ci...It was like going Back to the future...I can't imagine the beast the CVO is with that 114. I'm sold!
I may be wrong, but I think "Twin cooled" is referring to water and oil cooled heads together with the air cooled fins.
If I have a Harley-Davidson bike, that's definitely my choice!
well next year will be my first ever HD n I'm going all out I want the new street glide cvo.
orange n black.
never been on a bike. yes I need some lessons. I live in houston. Texas.
I can't wait to be in the HD family. n cruise the open road.
You won't regret it. That bike is awesome in every way. But yes, Learn to ride!
Awesome thanks.
I can't wait
And i will. They have a Huge HD store by my house I asked they have classes there.
I like the technical explanations that relate to the average rider in such a way that one can better understand the changes in design. I watched the Vegas video, but this one ups the info to include a walk-through and ride. Thanks for the primer on the new engines.
Getting my first CVO on saturday, cant fucking wait. 2018 Streetglide or Road glide. Never rode a Road Glide, going to test ride it see how that goes. They look so badd ass right now. Always been a Street Glide rider.
DAMN!! stand still you are making me sea sick on land!!
Great job Matt, as with all your videos. Clear, concise, and very informative. Your video's have helped me immensely in my recent purchase. I pulled the trigger on a 2017 CVO SG in orange/black from our local dealer here in Niagara - Ontario. Your efforts here on you-tube are greatly appreciated. Thanks again, and I wish you continued success in your career. Keep bringing us great video's! (Nice riding jacket BTW, my wife wanted to buy me one just like it).
dean rudge thanks for the kind words. You are the type of guy I make the videos for. Thanks for watching. Congrats on the bike. Thanks for watching. Enjoy the ride.
Love your info! Can you stop pacing though when you film yourself? Just some hopefully helpful feedback...
What a perfect bike. Maybe next year, just purchased a new F250.
Informative and objectivley as usual... thank you again.
Thanks for watching
Just waiting for mine to be finished, added a tour pak with heated seats, have stock seats when i dont need tourpak , found a back rest for the CVO as well :) , picked Vance n hines 450's, hope they have some good rumble,
Another great vlog. I love The CVO. I will have to give the new Milwaukee Eight Street Glide a test ride in the near future. Thanks again Matt.
Thanks for watching.

Always a good, complete review , looking forward to your review on the new frame line of Softails in particular the Deluxe. I think Harley is moving in the right direction, models come and go and sometimes return in this case it makes perfect sense to build on a good solid platform. I hope the Softails ride as good as they look.
Thanks for all your in depth reviews Matt. Great job
Thank you.
Great info Matt! To me, the only thing missing from the CVO is 12" mini-ape bars.
While I do enjoy the Freeway Riding Reviews I would love to see some reviews on how the bikes ( all Harley Davidson Motorcycles) handless in City Driving Conditions or in Rush Hour City Driving Conditions! Reviews on Idling, Vibrations at stops, Heat from the Motor, the ability to use the Infotainment System and the ability to Hear the Radio!
fidelssn689 Thank you for the suggestion. I'll try to incorporate more of that.
Thank You for the fast response! It is good to know the person who is in the videos actually reads the comments. Thank You for your videos! They are all informative and a big plus with me....I do not have to hear all that Foul Language others have on their videos!
Have you thought of doing training videos? Information on turning, gear shifting, riding with a passenger, adjusting the ride/shocks, cornering and the such! Just a thought!
Got to have cvo rear fender for mine...love it
Matt I'm riding down from Oregon,will be seeing you on the 25th with my 2017 cvo street glide ,I got the blue one, Getting my 1000 mile service done there,can't wait to give you a review on how it handled
Hi Matt! Is that the ghost bandit helmet? What helmet do you suggest? Thanks
HD needs to offer their M8 114 in more of its bikes.
Matt, I know you're busy trying to get your hands on some of the 2018's, but hopefully you can take some time to answer a question. I currently have a 2016 CVO breakout, but came very close to getting the 2017 CVO Street Glide as well, but I decided to wait to see what they had for 2018. I'm definitely happy with the 2018's and will probably get end up getting one, but it will be my first Street Glide, and my first bike with stereo equipment. All my previous bikes have been performance bikes without a ton of frills.. my question is with the six speakers on the CVO street glide, what are the risks associated with washing the bike, or getting caught in a rainstorm? Are the speakers themselves water resistant or waterproof like you would find on a boat, or do you have to avoid getting them wet?
Very nice unbiased comprehensive review brother, thanks!
Thank you.
Awesome video on the 2017 CVO Street Glide. That's the bike I want and will likely be putting the 114 upgrade in it.
It comes with a 114 inch motor. You can always do the 117 Ci build though !
is there going to be a 17 suspension upgrade for the 16 and earlier. Ive demoed the 17 and love the suspension, but am not going to be trading real soon. would be economic for me if they have a kit to upgrade an older bike to the new suspension.
Love these bikeumentries. TY Matt.
Awesome !!! Next time I am in L A I will stop by your dealership
Cool, man, definitely do.
man that helmet is rad. think i might treat myself one day
Matt what colour do u think the CVO street glides could be next year as I and 2 other mates here in Australia wood like to bye one each.We are coming to America next year with our wives for a ride to Sturgis out off San Francisco. We will look at more than likely 2019 model.I know that bike shops are last to know. We have been to Sturgis 3 times and each time been in your shop.Thanks for your vids very informative
Hi Matt - as we don't really get much, if any, opportunity to demo the CVO SG in the UK, could you give us a comment on the comparable cornering "weight" and "flickiness" of the CVO compared to the standard new 2017 SG special? (I love the look of the CVO and loved the ride on the new standard SG but when I tried the EG Ultra, the extra weight ruined the ride for me - I have an opportunity to buy a CVO version, but it is a 2-day round trip from where I live, so it would be good if you could help manage expectations first). Many thanks is, Steve
It doesn't sound like a Harley anymore or is it my speakers??
thanks for making these videos. you are doing a great job.
Tabletop MFFM thanks for watching
Tabletop MFFM SYLM Washington State
Another top shelf video. Very informative. And very entertaining at the same time. Quality. 😎 tcrs
Thank you and Thanks for watching.
Great video Matt.. Just did Harley demo day on the East coast yesterday, and pretty sure I rode the same bike you were on! Driver said he just came from the West coast. I just don't know if I could spend justify spending 40k for 6 months of riding.. It can get pretty nasty here in the tri-state during the winter months! The 114 CVO was a blast and in reality the only thing I would change is the exhaust.. Way to quite! Anyway, if I'm ever in So Cal I'll be sure to check out your dealership! Ride safe.
Thanks man. Yes, I'm sure it was probably the exact same bike. Glad you enjoyed it. Yea, you can't beat the weather here. I ride all year long.
Matt, really like your videos. I live in Texas and wondered do Harleys in California have extra emissions or does the normal way they are made allow them to be sold there? thanks
Good job, I like your presentation of the new bikes. I do a lot of rides on the west coast making videos just curious on your GoPro mount, are you using the suction cup and bendable mount? Picures of your set would be much appreciated. I like the different angles you use. Btw, I already tried trading my 13 Glide in for a 17, but I took to big of beating on the trade in so I'm selling 13 out right....
Matt, I liked the pacing. That showed great camera control. You always get really great camera angles on your videos. Very imaginative. -- Three questions; 1) I noticed the higher wind screen on the one you rode. Where does the wind hit on the shorter one. I like the look of the short one better. 2) What is your all-around favorite HD model? 3) What is ODBs all-around favorite HD model? -- I definitely plan to drop in for a visit when I make it back to LA.
Thanks for watching. The wind shield is actually the Same one. Results will vary depending on your height. At 6 feet 6 inches it does alright for me. I could benefit from a higher one. My favorite bike changes semi-frequently. Right now it's this bike, CVO FLHXSE. OBD likes anything that's a raw Harley haha.
@zeallistic did u trade in your street glide ? i seen it in the back i kinda wanna wait till more of the aftermarket community comes with more stuff . i feel like in a few months where gonna hear some horror stories about the new engines
I'm selling it. When you're in the industry you're always changing bikes. If I was wealthy I'd probably just keep it. I love that bike. I really don't think there will be big issues with the new motor. The after market guys will catch up soon.
Is that your old bike for sale in the background?
great video. wasn't really a review but more a sales video.
Lone Ranger Fair enough. I'll try to "Review " more in the future videos.
Hey Matt. Do you think that the 2017 CVO is still a great value in 2023? Is the oil pup still an issue? Great vid. Thanks
Oil pump could be an issue. It depends on how much they’re asking. Should be around 20-25 depending on miles and condition. Private party sale that is.
Hi Matt. So that bike is still a good value in today’s standard? Or is there too many issues so that I should buy a 2020 and up model. The Harley dealership in Canada is asking 25K. Thank you so much for your advice.
Hi Matt, do you have any information when the new CVO Road Glide Custom will be released? 2018? I believe The Motor Company's last CVO was in 2013..
Александр Потапов yea 2013 is the last year. I really don't know when the next CVO Roadglide (non-ultra) will be out. It's due to come out soon I think.
Thanks for your response! Could you also evaluate a bit in one of your videos on the differences between standard M8 motor, say with 114 c.i. kit and the CVO 114 M8? Are there any differences apart from the "twin cooled" system parts wise or quality wise? Is the water cooling system there only to reduce heat for the rider or there are other behefits? Theoretically, having lower engine temp allows one to run higher compression ratio and thus make more power, other things being equal. Thanks and keep up great work with your videos! Alex
Great videos always good to see from the UK👍
Thanks for watching
Great video Matt! Cool helmet. Is it HD? I have a 2014 Limited & thinking of going with the SG CVO. Just wondering if I will like the M8,... and the sound. How is the new windshield? As effective a the Klock Works Flare? Is the membership to satellite radio included in the price?
Olboxer thanks. The helmet is a Simpson outlaw bandit. You'll like the M8. You'll have to change the exhaust probably to make it sound the way you want. It's a great engine though. Yes the windshield is as effective as a comparable height klock werks. No, you have to pay for satellite radio. You get like 3 months for free.
Loving the lid, what is it?
Really good review. Lots of useable info. Ride safe!
Thank you. You too.
I was thinking of buying a Harley davidson touring bike for traveling in a multi country trip on a. But when I think of how fancy and expensive the touring bikes are I hesitate many times and hold it. I mean, I'm going to see the worst of roads and to me it feels painful to ride such expensive bikes on these roads. Your opinion would help a lot.
Thanks for the video.
If there are going to be really bad roads and some are unpaved like dirt roads then a big heavy harley touring bike wouldn't be the best choice. An adventure bike would probably be best. Something lighter with taller suspension etc
KLR 650
Abbath I'm thinking about it actually :)
which model is best selling---Road Glide or Street Glide? what do you feel is the main difference in the ride of each due to the fairing difference? Great video--thanks!
We sell more of the Street Glides. They both sell really well though. The ride is very similar. At slow speeds you have less weight on the steering on the Road Glide. A lot of People swear by the handling of the RoadGlide in high wind conditions. I think more people get the Street Glide just out of style preference.
Another awesome video Matt. Keep em coming. This is the bike I want but for road trips wifey needs an ultra so do I trade mine in on a new CVO Ultra Limited or keep mine and by the CVO Street Glide? Can't wait to see your test ride video on the CVO Ultra limited.
If I were you I would either get a detachable tour pack for the CVO limited or buy the color matched tour pack and a more comfortable seat for the CVO StreetGlide. Do you ride more with two people or solo? That will help you know what direction to go in.
I want to get a dyna but im not sure on which one to get, i want to pull maaad wheelies, can anyone help?
LoL
Well the fact that you want to pull mad wheels has increased my liking of your post exponentially.... rock on!
The Low rider with Stage 4 or Fat Boy /114 ci..w Stage 4..will get you there for wheelies...now about your Life Insurance policy...put me down..ok!...wheelies...are a thing for funeral home directors..income...
I have already ridden one , and real sorry to say but I miss the vibration and the sound and for the price Harley should have put the chrome side guards to protect the bags. I have a limited CVO 2015 and don't need 8 valves , My 110 CVO 2015 is now worth even more .
Drone pilot Bob, I notice the front crash bars don't extend beyond the lowers. Can't imagine the cost of damage if falls over in parking lot.
Not to mention , but ask about the warrantee on the new 2017 Harleys , I hear if you modifyi it , as exaust / headers you now Void the MFw and your screwed.
Great review!! can you by chance in the near future do a demo ride on a 110 that was converted to the 117? Im debating on doing a 117 kit on my 2014 CVO. I would love to see and hear this engine. Hopefully you can. thanks and be safe!
I'll see if I can get one of those.
Yes, please stop moving back and forth while your speaking..., or have someone else hold the camera..., other than that it was a great video. Now I have to go and take my motion sickness pills.
How long will it be before they come out with louder exhaust for the new 8?
Harley has screamin' eagle mufflers out right now that actually sound pretty dang good.
My friend just bought one and he said he is waiting on them to come out with different pipes to go on it. He is like me and likes loud. LOL Do they have a Ultra Classic with the Milwaukee 8 on it?
although I wish...:)..but I love minimalist Road King...
Does the CVO come w/ highway pegs? If not can you put them on?
James Williams The cvo Streetglide does not but yes, you can easily add them.
Matt Laidlaw thanks for the quick response! I love your videos!
James Williams Thank you!
Great job. Love these vids.
Saddlebags must be a pain to take off with speaker & amp wiring..no videos of removal....
Curtis Zwilling nothing to it man unplug one little plug on the backside of the saddlebag all done
chapeau! Great video! btw: is that a stock HD-Jacket you´re wearing in this video?! regards, Gerhard.
No, it's a jacket that I've sewn patches on over the years.
Another great review thanks😀👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🇺🇸
Horsepower is just a calculated number based on measured torque. Only reason sportbikes have the horsepower they do is because they have such a high RPM. Build a HD V-twin to handle 11,000 RPM, and the horsepower they'd have would be staggering.
Do we have to Smog these new bikes
I know you don't have to in California and we are the strictest state in the country so I'm going to say NO
Its a looker thats for sure
long story short horsepower is how fast to can hit a wall. Torque is how far you will move that wall.
Great info. Matt
Thanks, say hi to your dad for me.
Is that your bike on the showroom floor?
Yes, I'm building something different now. I'm selling my FLHXS. When you're in the industry it's hard not to be trying new things. I wish I was Wealthy and I could just keep it.
I hear that. I guess you bought or you are buying the dyna low rider s you were talking about in the other video you made?
Neither yet. It's a surprise.
Great videos, really informative. I was wondering whether the Street Glide CVO has a lower seat height compared with the standard model. I'm 6'3", and also considering the Road Glide because it's supposed to fit taller riders better.
The seat height is the same. The road glide prior to 2015 was a better fit for a tall guy. Since Rushmore came out the roadglide bars are closer to the rider by 4 inches. Which is huge. Don't buy based on the premise that the roadglide is for taller riders.
Can you please continue moving around & pacing about ? It's helps Cagers to see you better , and you won't be like a sitting target. ( higher Visibility ) thx. Lol-
Hi Thanks for the video, you can do one for the New breakout cvo 2017 scorched Apple and if you can compare it to the fat boy s.
Your fan from morocco ;)
Okay. I recently did a video on the pro street breakout. The 2016's are the same bike. I will be releasing a fatboy S video in the near future
Thanks, but comparing the fatboy s and breakout cvo in termes of confort, suspension, etc Will be something great.
Nice bike but I'm happy with my 2016 road king crushed ice and teal pearl.
Nice Bike
hold still im getting motion sickness
nice
Matt, great videos but just comment on improvement.... stop dancing around when you are talking to the camera. It looks like you've got ants in your pants. Use a tripod during your introduction. Keep up the good work!
Mines on order the blk on blk hurry the f up Harley lol
But I need 1000 hp to cruise around!
your "medulla oblongata" must be very small.
Almost sounds like a harley.... Almost
Trying to watch but the constant moving around was making me nauseous..stop moving, Dude!
I mean, why would you want 90hp and 110ft/lb when you can have 120hp and 130ft/lb? LOL
