I'm with ya! I think you are right about the guys on here with hard-ons for CVO's. I could care less about CVO's though. I'll do my own mods thank you very much. I ain't never selling my bike. I'll mod it and replace parts on it till one of us dies. A CVO won't hold a candle to my ride.

"Hey look at all of my upgrades you get to pay for!"

If you have 40K, why not simply buy your own and drop 14-16K into it to make it exactly the way that you want it. That does not have a 32 inch rim on the front tire, etc. Make it your own for that money. If you want me to buy yours I am closer to a 28

If it's not your style, it's not your style. Plain and simple. Bashing the price and throwing names at those who CAN afford it is a complete waste of time, and it makes you look jealous and stupid. That's like calling someone broke because they ride a 15 year old softail. Is that fair?

Nice bikes. Like the first one but overall little out of my style. Someone however will be very happy with them. I have my one of a kind at home already waiting for me to ride her....

I don't see why anyone would feel they have to justify what they spend their money on, CVO or tricked out custom. You earn it, you spend it however you damn well see fit IMHO.

I can appreciate the guys who have a vision, and execute their vision to create a bike they want. I can't imagine the situation, were I to drop $60k into my ride, that would cause me to sell it for $40k... I'd have to pretty pretty stable to put that kind of coin into a toy.
