you think he's getting hosed on an M8 CVO bike in the US? I live in Northern Alberta, the dealer here wants 57k CDN for an 18 Ultra Classic CVO 117"

M8's are great bikes. Most of the problems I hear about are stage 4 upgrades. Keep it stock and you'll be fine. Its the best Harley I've owned and I've ridden a bunch over the years.

No, oil transfer from trans to primary on some of the hydraulic clutch models, and oil sumping on 114's not exclusive to CVO's. Check out the M8 forum for more details.
