to the OP....DUDE! You must always have a VRSCDX in the garage :-) I am 50 and I know what you mean about the clamshell riding position. However, in 2012, as you know, they did a redesign and the riding position now is fantastic.....must more upright and really comfortable....I could not get one into my garage fast enough....
The 110 in my CVO is a torque monster, pulls like a mule train in every gear, but you will not get the constant ear-to-ear grin that you get when you are riding the VRSCDX.....feels like you are moving in S L O W motion !
Ah, the 2009 Springer CVO. I was so close to buying that bike on two occassions over the last couple of years....the cobalt blue color both times....love the springer front end...It's very sad there is not a single springer in the current HD lineup. Just a flat out beautiful bike...

Yes,
leaning forward (I'm 5'9). Would make my shoulders sore after about 50 miles, but he pain was worth the pleasure.

I have a 2007 FXSTSSE. Its like a bar hopper to me. I have taken a few longer trips with it however all day at highway speeds with forward controls gets a little tiring. At 70 plus the wind wants to blow your knees outward so at the end of the day the inside of my thighs are like Ive been riding a horse. Also I dont like the look of it with luggage so it makes it inconvenient for trips. The Softails dont corner and handle like the touring bikes do. I have three Softails however any time I go out for more than a day ride Im on my 09 Screamin Eagle Road Glide.
