Oh my word... I'm glad that Harley Rider_49 has grown past his over-use of apostrophes and quotation marks in his more recent ramblings.. Reading this old, drug up thread, has made my head hurt reading his paragraphs. LOL

Save your money and buy an S&S.
inch for inch, an S&S is a much better engine.

As far as the CVO baggers go, the VIN number will tell you if it's a Scream'n Eagle. The fifth and six letters in the code will tell you the model of the bike.
example, The two letters after the 1HD1_ _ will tell what model you bike is. Check your owners manual, it will explain it all.

Not to make light of the stocker's, but you could spend buttloads o' $$ on'm and get the same #'s, but my point is , will "never" be a "Scream'n Eagle".....limited run factory custom's with a specific VIN# that designates it as such....also hold their value more than the stock counterparts.....just say'n......could direct ya to a site dedicated to these specific models, but would be against the policy of this forum, I think....anyway ,best thing to say is , GO to dealer, get on 1 and have sales dude show & explain all the differences, or better yet.....RIDE ONE!!!! Gotta go......C-ya!!

A CVO Screamin Eagle is just a plain Harley Davidson (pick your model) with a bunch of gaudy add on chrome, a nice radio and paint. It doesn't go ANY faster or handle ANY better. Spend your money on good quality parts and don't buy the hype.
