Default Snow,Snow, Go Away

My new bike arrived today and can't ride. Well don't want to ride in the mess. Hopefully rain later and warmer temps like they say so maybe.

Congratulations on a beautiful CVO. I've only seen the silver/blue, green and red up close and personal. Your CVO colors accents the chome.

I just exceeded 500 miles on January 1, and then the cold, snow and deep freeze set in.

You're going to love the ride and strong pulling and responsive M8 114.

Thanks. I thought about the red like yours but I wanted chrome wheels not just accent.

It was 50 deg here in PA today, but the roads are covered with ash and salt. I've got a brand new CVO Pro Street Breakout with a newly built 117" engine sitting in the garage just begging to be ridden. Winter is a miserable time, but even more so with a new bike that hasn't seen any road time..

I know exactly how you feel Pa-Rider. I just had my 2017 CVO Street Glide delivered and there is a ton of snow up here and the roads of full of salt. Buying a new bike in December was not the best idea I've ever had.

Well I rode it down the driveway and back today. Supposed to get to 60 tomorrow. Raining right now so washing the roads off for me. I'm riding tomorrow that's all there is to it.

great bike, remember one quick ride on the dirty roads of sand and salt gives you plenty of one on one rub time. These chrome beast take lotsa time to clean, Ride safe. Our roads in the North are riddled with chrome eating abrasives and we are chompin at the bit for Spring.
