The display looks cool. So does the lower fang fairing on the CVO Road Glide, always thought it was lacking something compared to how the CVO Street Glide looks w/ lower fairings. Big downer in CVO SG & RG paint though, was REALLY hoping for a murdered out bike. Why on earth would they make 2 CVO SG’s with the same ugly “Black Forest” maroon paint, one all maroon, the other w/ the same “Black Forest” color but 2 tone. Did they buy too much Black Forest paint, WTF?

And the CVO RG paint not my style either, you can get in 3 ugly paint colors as long as you want a big #1 graphic on the tank, ugh. I didn’t like the 18 CVO SG colors, like blacked out motors instead of chrome, not a fan at all of the battle ship, primer look paint but the 18’s CVO SG black alloy & Black denim actually looks great compared to the 19’s. Man oh man.

yah they dropped the ball on the cvo paint the only one that I like is the silver cvo ultra. I have fell in love with the silver flux and black quartz. The scorched orange is not the color i thought it would be I’m disappointed. Barracuda silver is a good color also. Now just have to wait on my dealer to get the silver flux in and I’ll be ready to roll.

  • Like a smart phone, the navigation engine display responds to two-finger gestures: swipe, pinch, and drag.
So cosmetic. Nothing mentioned about GPS software, better/cleaner amplifiers... etc..
Typical of harley........... just add more lipstick!

I am planning to trade-in my Road King (2005) for a 2019. I'm thinking Ultra Limited but those Street Glide Specials sure are good looking.

My plan right now is early 2019.. like February. Once I get my taxes done and will have a solid down payment.

Of course the more I go in "just to look" the better the chance I buy something. Need to stay away for a little while.

I think I'm going to look at 2019s this weekend.

First, I need to remove the Fuel Moto 2/1/2 headpipe and MK45 mufflers - may not need the anymore. Not sure yet...

Dropped my deposit on a Scorched Orange Street Glide Special 3 weeks ago. Originally it was to be delivered to the dealership on 10/23, but they got word from the factory that it will now be early November. Seems they've delayed the painting of that color a few weeks.

Well I didn't plan on buying a 19 but the impulse was too great and I traded my 18 Fat Boy in on a 19 Street Glide.
