Excellent point. I took mine stock initially and had the dealer set it up on my first service. I wanted to see how it rode with the default settings and then adjust once I knew where it needed to be. Great suggestion!
Thanks for the comment. Others have said the same below, I never had one so I was pretty excited even for that small of a feature, lol. It's an awesome ride for sure. Ride Safe
Thank you! And congrats to you as well. I agree, the changes are awesome and can’t wait to get some new accessory options for the bike. I am sure it will take a minute but I know they are working on things. Ride safe and thank you for the support and lever answer.
LOL thanks for the comments! I appreciate the support. I don’t know about a boss but definitely gettin it so I can get where I need to go, lol. Ride safe and thanks again.
I kinda hate i have to get an extended reach seat for mine got 2k on it already and the seat has actually broken in nicely. Most comfortable factory seat ive experienced
Thanks for the comments! I agree, great riding bike, but I also feel a bit cramped even at only 5'11". On my RGST I ended up installing the Thrashin adjustable boards (video on my channel), may do the same here and forego the shiney CVO boards for comfort and functionality. Ride Safe and enjoy that bike, I know I will!
Can’t take it with you! Isn’t that how the old saying goes? Don’t mind the jealous hater’s, good for you on the new bike! I think HD did great job updating their touring lineup.
Thanks brother! I appreciate your comments. I am ok with the people who feel they need to poo poo on other peoples platters, lol, sometimes people just gotta say stuff....lol Ride safe and thanks for the support
Thanks for the comments and congrats! I have the APlusLift 1500X, I did a series of videos on it as well that you can find here, check it out! th-cam.com/video/6UDmxB7J1lA/w-d-xo.html
Thank you, I appreciate the support and comments. My video music is from epidemic sound so I don’t get hit for license violations. They are just a collection of random artists hired for the service. The video song is don’t call me sugar by johan glossner. Ride safe and thanks again.
I have a 2021 Road Glide Special & a 2023 Low Rider ST and have gotten a lot of good ideas from you , for that I am thankful . Now I am afraid I mite have to buy a 2023 CVO ..... LOL
Biggest question is how much over list did they price it at, here in Florida they are asking $54,995.00 for them, and from another TH-camr he said that his dealer in MN wanted $59,999.00 Nuts pricing. Sticker being $42,995 + 1200 and $850 for MSRP.
I agree, Sounds like they are talking about the Whiskey Neat paint color for that price, that is 6k higher on the HD site at MSRP $49,999.00. The Dark Platinum starts at $42,999.00 MSRP. Most dealers out here in CA are asking from 4k to 5k mark up at starting point. I will give a fair mark up if they are an honest dealer, meaning, I cant help HD fees and CA taxes, so that is about 4200.00 right out the gate. Anything else on top would need to be minimal, not a balloon supply and demand charge. I have 3 dealers close to me that are family/veteran owned that still only charge MSRP.
Thanks for the question! That is a tough one for sure, but, if you are going to hold me to just one answer, I would say it is the availability of the constant power in every gear that this thing has. The redesign of the rockets in 2020 was one of the largest innovations to date for Triumph. This bike is a sleek, smooth, powerful machine with tons of improvements over the previous touring model, which I had. Just LOVE this bike! Thanks for the support and ride safe.
Thanks for the comments. Yes, it is a new bike, but I think there is actually a ton of revolutionary changes for Harley in my opinion. I had a RGST and loved it, this new updated version convinced me to sell it and get one of these. First time having a CVO though, so that is different for me, but considering the current RG and RGST prices at 29k+ to 33k+ depending on options, paint and markup, 43k MSRP is not that high. Especially given the 121, liquid cooled heads, 12.2 screen, all digital gauges, all LED (FINALLY!), Shock adjustment relocation, new fairing design, VVT, redesigned bags, updated controls and more. Everyone has to justify what they buy in their mind, for what they like, for sure. For me, it is a tremendous change for the RG. Ride safe and thanks for the comments.
My Challenger has all of those goodies and more for $12,000 less, and a BMW K1600B with even more goodies is just $27,900 with 160HP and 133 ft. Lb. Torque and a reverse gear. The only bad thing on the Beemer is it is missing that thump thump sound, but it is a 6 cylinder. But I do like the new RG design, and looking to see what trickles down to the RG ST for 2024. Going to add a HD RGST i think if they make the updates for 2024
@@Bikerbug2020 Yes, my Rocket 3 was 24k and has a 2500cc 3 cyl motor and tons of torque (love that bike). HD has always been proud of their bikes for sure, but as I told one person, it's a thing, and compared to my Road Glide ST vs CVO upgrades, I could justify it for myself. I am hoping that the base updates will pass down to the next year models, that would be great. Ride safe
Thanks for the comment, seems so, lol. If I look at a Platinum ring online, it is a bit lighter of a silver color and more shiney. Maybe they felt that by darkening it up a bit makes the name. In any case, it is a VERY pretty color for sure! Thanks again and ride safe
@@michaelowens1183 100% agree. Same here for me, I have seen many CVOs and could never justify the price, but with all they did on these, it was a lock... I didn't care for the Whiskey Neat color personally, I mean it looks very pretty but I like the Platinum and especially the color matched inner fairing. I replaced my RGST inner for that very reason. Appreciate the comments and ride safe!
If you haven't already, set up your suspension. There are several adjustments for the rear. The dealers should do this before you drive off.
Excellent point. I took mine stock initially and had the dealer set it up on my first service. I wanted to see how it rode with the default settings and then adjust once I knew where it needed to be.
Great suggestion!
CVOs for years have had the electronic bag lock on the key fobs.

Congratulations!!!
There it is! Congratulations!
Thank you!
Love new CVO, congrats!!! Hope they will come out with black color for 24, if they do, I will trade my 22 Road Glide ST for it. Enjoy!
Thank you very much! I am sure they will start featuring the new changes in more models next year. Or I hope anyways.
Ride safe.
Awesome, congratulations 🍾
Thank you very much!

Congratulations 🎊 i just picked up mine 4 days ago and really loving the new changes. For the levers you have spindle to adjust them 😉

You have a fully adjustable suspension, rear.
Yes it does. Thanks for the comments.
I sure like mine. So much for 3k rpm for the first 50!
LOL, I’ve always said, break it in as you ride so I feel ya, lol. Maybe a little nicer right?
Ride safe.
@justkillnbugz different thoughts. Some people are smarter than Engineers that design the thing. Bottom line it's your bike!
Really enjoy your videos . Can you tell me the song playing in the beginning ? . Thanks
