2016 cvo road glide ultra
Can anyone talk me out of a road glide. I'm currently on a ultra limited. Have a deal made on a 2016 cvo. I have never been on a road glide and am afraid if I wait long enough to test ride ( it's winter here in ND) it will get sold.

Good luck... a couple of my friends ride Rode Glides and love them. I will tell you this, I currently have an Ultra Limited and just today put down a deposit on a 17 CVO Limited. Once the ride the CVO I had to have it. I've spent so much money through the years on my other bikes it's nice to buy a bike that is already complete. Not to mention every extra feature you can't add to your limited.. I'm sure you'll get a much better deal buying a 16 than I did on a 17.
I just bought a new 2016 CVO Road Glide in August and I am also in North Dakota. You will love that bike. I went from having two different Ultra Classics To a Road Glide without even riding one before I bought it.

Go for the road glide. Its my favorite Touring bike. Had an 09 SERG, 12SERG and a 15 SERGU.
The Rushmore, 15 and new are an improvement over the earlier ones. I think they handle cross winds and such better than a batwing.
I am on my first ever batwing, a 17 SESG. As soon as there is a CVO Road glide again, I will be trading. This Steet Glide is nice, but I like the road glide better.

There's only one thing that Rides better then a Road Glide.
And that would be a CVO Road Glide!
Just get it and Enjoy.

Went from ultra classic to 2016 CVO RG. The riding position and extra reach is much better to suit me. 6'2" w long legs. Ride it and buy it.

Been on my first RGU for almost two years. Like the handling. For taller folks above 6' expect to make changes to the windshield and possibly the brake pedal but cost of those is not too bad.

My brother rides a 2011 CVO RG Ultra and swears he won't buy another Harley until they come out with a CVO RG Ultra for the M8. It is definitely the Cadillac of Harley's. I'll stick with my CVO Street Glide for the time being but it's a preference of style and not of comfort or handling. I've been on my brother's CVO RG Ultra and it handles very well, I just don't like the Shark Nose fairing, yet... As for CVO's, IMHO, once you have a CVO you won't go back to non CVO bikes.
