Which comes with the Screaming Eagle 110ci motor, which by the way will NOT be smoked by crotch rockets, not with 112 ft-lbs of torque at 3500 rpms, I promise you that, obviously it wont come close on the top end but who the hell really needs to do 130+ on the streets unless you are looking to go 6 feet under.

People want cheap shit they buy from Asia, they want American made products you will pay more, with that being said the younger crowd will never buy Harley’s because they wont want to cough up the money. But you wouldn’t believe how many people that ride Harley’s switched from crotch rockets.

And all the BS about you can’t take turns on Harley…I can take turns just as fast on my Harley, they are incredibly balanced bikes.

Is the CVO a different line of bikes? or a like an in-house division? Just wondering.
