If you mod out a standard bike to "make it yours", and end up with a bike that's faster & handles better, with custom paint and all the chrome & accessories that you want, and have it all for $5-10K less than a CVO costs, you're feeling pretty smart!
...until a few years later & you get the bug for a new bike, and sneak down to the dealer and start talking about trading yours in. It's then that you realize that the thou$ands of dollars you put into "making it yours" add exactally nothing to what you're going to get back when you trade.
If you're ok with that, or plan to never have another bike again, then by all means buy the stocker & add all the mods you want. And while you're at it, keep bashing the guys who buy CVOs!
If you want to have a really nice bike with lots of accessories, slick paint & lots of chrome, enjoy it for a few years, and get the most back when you trade it in, then you might want to think about a CVO.
