I've always liked chrome and i didn't see any of the CVO models with chrome. I do like the look of the Fat Boy magwheels.

Anyway, i like chrome wheels and they aren't a big deal to take care of. They look great when cleaned. But to each his own.

I agree, the heritage was a classic and they absolutely destroyed it. I hate all that blackout garbage on most bikes though, looks like crap

I like the blacked out look and the Bonneville Salt Pearl paint on the RGS is killer.

$100 difference between RG Ultra and Special

Looks like the Ultra got $100 more expensive (for no change). But the Special went up $1300. For the blacked out and extended bags.

I would definitely still take the Ultra with all the extra stuff, but each to there own.

And I like Chrome

Major plus one. Not a single paint scheme catches my eye.

Damn glad I decided last July not to wait on the 2018 SGS and get my 2017 SGS in Velocity Red Sunglow.Not a fan of the 2018 blacked out SGS and the increased price tag they slapped on it.

I don't understand the need to modernize a bike named the Heritage. I agree with others this is a huge fail.

I like the chrome on my SGS, but that's just my taste. New blacked-out SGS not my thing, but gotta admit it looks pretty bad ***.
