CVO. The performance between the 2 are not the same, or close to the same. I have a buddy that has a 103 and has spent 7K working on it to get close to the numbers the CVO is putting up. There's a reason the CVO is still 22k. The drop if value between a CVO and limited after say, 5 years, not even close. Not sure how one ultra is better for 2-up riding than the other.

As far as heat, yeah the 110 is going to put off more heat. But I can tell you for a fact, If the headpipe is changed, and you put on a power commander 5 and have someone actually tune it, it'll make a huge difference.

The screaming eagle pro tuner is better than nothing, but they put the closest match on (no actual tuning). Getting a proper tune on there will make a HUGE difference.

My dealer has multiple pre rushmore CVO bikes that nobody will even look at. If you ever want to sell it, nobody will look at it.

If you like to be different, get the CVO, if you tend to follow the crowd, get the Limited.

LOL. That's a good one! Yeah, since the rushmore came out all pre-rushmore's are totally worthless, nobody wants them....

I'll agree with him. Get the bike that turns your head. Rushmore upgrades are nice, mileage difference doesn't bother me, but how it looks is important to me.

But--I was raised to be different, that's why I was in all those special classes in school.

And that might be the best advice yet. That is if you expect the Harley to be like your Honda.
