Default 2023.5+ Sub-forum request

Mods,

can we get a 2023.5 touring sub-forum going. With there being so many differences in parts etc it would be great to have to filter through less. I’m sure people a year from know would be very thankful.

There’s a “2014+ Touring models” section. That includes a major engine change in 2017. I’d just post 23.5 “next gen” stuff in there.

Frames didn’t change.

A 2023.5 is a CVO. Go to the CVO section.

Please, yes, so I can quit drooling over that new Road Glide and appreciate my old Rushmore again.

It doesn’t really matter, people never post appropriately anyway. For example, if you’re posting something that is engine specific to an engine type (i.e., Milwaukee Eight, Twin Cam, etc.) it should be in those engine forums but people think because they have a tourer with a twin cam they’ll ask in the touring section; perhaps because they think it will get more views. Back when i joined it was relatively easy to maneuver the site. Now you have to bounce all over from sub forum to sub forum.

Mstrobes: "A 2023.5 is a CVO. Go to the CVO section."

but a 24+ SG/RG is not. Also there are 25 years now of cvo's

There is a ton of confusion among the owners of the new bikes on what fits, what does not etc.
There are 3 facebook groups with 2.5k+ each with many posts daily and its a ton to filter through for an answer.

With the new non cvo models just coming out there's going to be a ton of new owners looking for the same info, it would be a service to them to have all the available threads in regard to fitment, tuning etc in one place.
A majority of the mods that people do is outside that of the engine and more than half the parts changed, seats, windshields, speakers, handlebars, risers, on and on are not directly interchangeable.

Strange H-D does list a 2023.5 model in their service parts website.
