Default best CVO street glide

is it he 2019? my reasoning after a bit of research

- 117 m8 engine, no wet heads
- lowers with an extra pair of speakers
- GTS radio
- wineberry paint (thats the only available down here)

possible baddies... wheels (i have a bad feeling about those oddball tires costs compared to the good old egildes... possible bad oil pump being a 2019, i've heard only 2020s have good pumps... what else?

I have some available for purchase, one having only 110 km on the clock... go figure.

anything to be wary of?? is a 2020 better even with less speakers? is a 2017 (much cheaper) not that bad even with the wet head 114?

choosing harleys is hard... why the hell dont they BTO the goddam motorcycles

I'm on a '17....love the bike

there's no advantage in having that Boom crap in the lowers, the infotainment HU in the '19 is a little better

my pump has been replaced, it was a problem

that wineberry color is absolutely gorgeous in person

either way, you end up with a baller HD....good luck with your choice

Look for the manufacture date, if it’s after 5-2019 it should have the new 8 lobe oil pump. I love my wineberry cvo!

I definitely like having the lowers with speakers, I’m about to scrap all the Boom 2 stuff though, I have blown several stock speakers and plan to put some good stuff in its place. I also like the flush mounted pop up gas cap, kind of a cvo trademark.

Pretty sure they are made of crackers and sugar frosting. I had the outfit that put my new system in pull the old stuff with the hopes of me selling it. Absolutely no interest. The folks here are too smart to buy that junk. I ended up giving it away to four different guys here, who like you had blown speakers and need a replacement. The guy who took the amps, was trying to cobble together a system and had been given speakers by someone else.

Again, the head unit is solid. And with the '19, you have the speaker pods in the lowers...the HD quick connects on the bag can be used....it's ready to have baller replacement aftermarket system put in.......if you put 6x9s in the bags, be sure that they use the special adapter kit that lets you retain your CVO autolocks....if a tech tells you it can't be done, find a new tech, or educate him

yeah I’m going with 6x9’s and have already discussed the locks and it’s no problem. Keeping stock head unit but everything else gets scrapped
