Could this be the next engine to be put in the future CVO's ? The 110 is getting old.And I remember when the 103 was the CVO biggie .

I'm just saying the engine sizes alway move down , and now that the 96 cu is gone. It only make since to me that they will do it In the next 2 or 3 years.

The 120r is not EPA compliant, they would have to re-cam etc. before they could use it. IMO likely would go to water cooled heads then also.

I figger the next step up will be the 113 for the
cvo, and a few years later the 110 will replace the
103 as the standard engine for everything, except
the super glide custom which will get the 103. I've
been looking at the Screamin Eagle pro racing parts
books since 07 and the cvo have followed the
Screamin Eagle kits from the best that I can tell.
The kits 95, 103, 110, 113, 120

I wouldn't be surprised if they did. It would have to be epa compliant ie very detuned. Harley has their hands full right now with this water cooling menagerie so don't look for it to be anytime soon. The 110 still has some issues to be ironed out (so the dealer says) but maybe in a few years, new Harley owners can beta test a water cooled 120?

If going off the history of the past,

I believe within time, it's coming. However, it might be a wet head and might be a CVO Road Glide Ultra as a beta bike first.

Just my opinion, time will tell.

A 113 would cost them almost nothing,they gotta trump the Vindian 111.
