I thought i would feel real awkward coming from my Softail Custom Kanelakos.... But I can honestly say i felt comfortable within a few hours. I test rode a 2017 Road Glide and had that same uneasy feeling.

We've had rin everyday for the past nine days. If this keeps up I might be forced to sell my scoot and get a boat, lol.

The profile of the CVO seat is more akin to the Softtail feeling.

Not to worry, CVO is way out of my budget.

That's a really nice looking scoot that you already have. Looks like you done a lot of custom mods to it. The first time I bought a CVO it was out of my price range but I figured YOLO so why not enjoy the ride. Since then, I'm on my third CVO and I've been lucky to get top dollar on my trade-ins so it takes the bite out of buying another one. I've said it before and I'll say it again, once you take the plunge and buy a CVO, you likely won't go back to riding a non-CVO. Until then, enjoy your hot looking ride.
