I would put the money into what you have. 12K could build you a bitchin bike with a custom "1 off" paint job of your liking. But if you are looking for a finished product with no down time getting to the results I would say go with the CVO. As may have said, you only live once.

 

I'm on my 2nd CVO Road Glide. Traded in my 2011 with 47K miles & $20K OTD on my new 2015. This is my 28th motorcycle and 6th HD. I tend to throw a ton of money into my motorcycles to make them a one of a kind. I find that purchasing a CVO tends to depreciate a whole lot less than a standard HD with $15K to $20K in mods.

Once you go CVO you'll have a different out look on those non CVO HDs. Remember with the CVO you get the 110" engine for starters.

 

My thoughts ............Plus, the '16s will be released in a few weeks .............. WAIT !

 

All these CVOs with 110s will be a dime a dozen when the CVOs with the 120 comes out. Mark my words. Be content with what you have and watch all the sheep drop their wool.
My 103 is just fine. If you want speed, get on a R1.

 

Guess those 103s would be a nickel a dozen then.

 

Haha. tou·ché

 

i'll take a dozen of each,do you take paypal???? LOL.

 

This close to the release of the new models, I'm not sure why anyone would buy a new Harley. I made that mistake once. Won't ever happen again.

 

I had a 2008 Anniversary Edition and Traded it for a 2015 Ultra Limited. So far I like the 2015 Ultra limited much better. I loved the CVO's looks and all the extras and bling it comes with. However, I believe the air cooled 110 engine is a lemon. My ultimately blew up with only 31000 miles on it. It was Harley service from day 1. My opinion is the 103 is a better engine and even better with the water cooling. Perhaps the new 110 with water cooling is a better engine than the old air cooler engine. Any how I think the 110 is overkill and produces way too much heat. The only way I would go with that large of an engine is if it was fully water cooled. Hopefully, Haley will move onto a fully water cooled engine. They could give it a cool name like "Full Water Jacket" a pun on "Full Metal Jacket".

Anyhow be wary of the 110 engine. Try it out first. If the engine has any strange noise at all do not buy it even if the mechanics says it is normal. This is what they kept on telling me until the engine blew. My 103 purs like a kitten with out any strange noises.

 

+1, I had a 07 CVO ultra. Ran very hot. Pinged. Now have a 14 Limited and love it.

Love your green 15 Limited.
