Because I went out to the Aerosmith concert last night I didn't feel like doing much this morning. So I said the hell with it and spent a few hours cleaning my bike. When I bought it I looked at the Switchback first. I liked the idea of a Switchback but liked the looks and features of the new Low Rider better. So I built my own Switchback on steroids out of a Low Rider. My favorite configuration for riding around town is with the windshield and backrest/rack on the bike and the bags off. I only use the bags when I know I will need them. Here are a bunch of pictures of it after I washed it from a bare bike then with the backrest/rack, then with the windshield added and finally with the bags too. I really like the Harley quick attach system.

Really digging this thread and the all the Low Riders in it, been thinking about adding one to the garage and hoping the motor company would create a CVO Low Rider for 2016, we shall find out come August 3rd. I know, I know its a long shot.

They put on an awesome show. Hard to believe Steve is 67 now. Damn I hope I can stay in that kind of shape at that age. Maybe there is something to sex, drugs and rock and roll. There are quite a few of the old bands still going strong. Hard to believe after 40+ years that some of them have been together.

If HD were to do a CVO LR, I wonder what else they could do to improve up the standard LR.

Kinda on the fence about powder coating the fork sliders and getting some new handle bars . Some just a little taller . the 6 inch risers are .5" taller than the stock setup , but I can tell the difference . Then maybe some suspension work , but I will probably just finish the year out with it as is . Pretty happy with it .

Suspension improvements, dripping in chrome, and a 110 would be good for starters. We can hope, I don't see Harley doing a 4th year of a Deluxe, they would sell every single CVO Low Rider they make.

Did HD ever do a CVO Street Bob or Super Glide? I do not recall seeing one. However, I was not looking at HDs back in the day.
