I was shocked to see that they didn't offer lower fairings or a tourpack on any model other than the Limited Road Glide.

Seems like that extra storage would be a desirable regardless of fairing shape, but what the hell do I know?

It is interesting how the CVO line has evolved. If you think back to the first years of the CVOs there was so much detail. Frames were painted to match the base color of the bike. The bikes were hand assembled and you could always see what set a CVO apart, and no one thought of having to repaint them for them to sell.
