Default Help please
Looking for opinions please. Should I buy a new 2016 cvo limited or 2017 ultra limited. I rode the 2017 today awesome power. But I like the goodies and the deal I can get on the CVO.

If it was my choice, I'd go '17 having rode one yesterday. Mighty impressive. Smooth and powerful.

Welcome to the forum. Personally I love the extras that come with the CVO. That said the 17 is the best riding HD I've ever had. Good luck!

Tough choice. The 17 is a nice ride. Wish I had not bought my '16 when I did. 2016 CVO road glide ultras are down to 2500 over what I paid for my ultra here where I live.

Default Hard choice
Thanks for the welcome and replies. It is a tuff choice. I know there are items I would want to add to the 17. Boosting the price. But not as much as the cvo would be up front. Deposit is down on the 17. Waiting for the arrival. So I have time to decide. It's the last bike I will buy she tells me so I gotta get it right.
