25 bikes in three years? WTF!

Sounds to me like all he does is ride back and forth to the dealer. Yeah, I'm jealous too!!

Lets say you had an 06 Ultra - I guess between paint, chrome, wheels and performance you could easily drop $14,000 making for a total investment of about $36K to $38k.
Now what kind of resale do you have on all those extras? You might not get dinged to bad if the right guy came along.

I think with the Screaming EagleCVO Ultra the bike would hold its total value better.

I figure my bikes resale value is based on the base price of the bike - all theextras I put on it are "Things" I like. The next buy may not making those things worthless to him and to the resale.

$37K is insane.... AND- i would have much more fun adding things to my "base" HD.

adding my doo-dad's, chrome and exhaust make it interesting.

I know of 2 cvo new on the dealers floor for msrp. one in Bloomoington, In and the other in Chicago area. This dealer nuts or what??? I,ll wait till they come out with a better paint scheme. These look like a preschool class project. Now an 05 or 06 look a lot better. IMO

Me and my sonwere there today, (he's wanting a Deluxe) There was a CVO Vrod 07 and was told the owner bought Another CVO because
he didn't like the color anymore...

Wonder what he does when the ashtrays in the car get dirty?

I have thought that the CVO is the way to go, but with 35k, you could make on heck of a custom bagger.

37k with 800 miles isn't much of a buy in my opinion
