See I actually think the colors for 2020 are the best in several years. Everything isn't denim for once. The blue and black road glide was absolutely stellar. Pics don't do it justice. I think the cvo colors are **** for how much you are paying. So much so, that they had that silver/white cvo and I didn't even take a picture.

I'm with you - I think 2020 is better colors than they've had since 2017 or earlier. Except the CVO's - None of them look like a CVO to me this year.

i also add floorboard spacers, but i do wait until i get home to do those, a little bit more involved, though not difficult either.

i don't understand why you would think i would be lying about that????? and there is absolutely no way in hell i would pay the dealer to do that for me. there are some things that i don't have the expertise myself for, but that is not one of them.

and for the record, right now i am running cvo takeoff mufflers on my bike. and no, it doesn't sound like a harley, yet. but do have plans to one day get either rineharts, or s&s slip ons. but, groceries come first.
Is this spacer for the shifter removal available from HD? If so, might you have the part number?

I just rode my brand new SGS home from a dealer 150 miles away, and I freaking hate that heel shifter. It must go!

You can use the rubber spacer from the electra glide standard. It doesn't have the heel shifter stock and uses a wider rubber spacer to push the toe shifter out so you don't have exposed splines. Spacer cost me $.90
