- Check out our stop at Hartford Harley Davidson to check out the new 2024 Road Glide CVO ST. We think Harley nailed it after studying the performance bagger craze and bringing a performance machine right off the showroom floor.
As a factory performance bagger is it a hit or miss? Leave a comment below !

47k...that bike better blow me everytime I walk by it
That’s funny but your absolutely right 😂😂😂😂
yeah and for that money you’d think it would have some heated grips for you to hold on to while you’re getting your johnson serviced…..but no.
Very impressive for a bagger. This is what Harley should be. I also understand that this is not a sportbike. Expectations should be adjusted.
@@ixibladeixi2639 Yeah, heated grips/seat and passenger pegs/seat would be great on a 50K Bagger
Still no heated seats, no e-suspension, no e-shield. lol
Great video guys
Glad you enjoyed it
Love this bike . Wanted to get one but in S Florida it was marked up to 57k OTD . I ended up getting a 23 CVO 6K under MSRP OTD . Couldn’t pass that up
Very nice, that's a solid deal. Enjoy the new bike!
Good video... appreciate the absence of background music. The non-scripted dialogue is a welcome change. Well done. About the bike, wow. Gotta give it to Harley for this one. I have been looking at moving to a bagger and the Street Glide has been the bike of choice until now. I would like to see HD announce or make public the aftermarket parts & accessories plans. A two up option, regardless of the wrenching to go back and forth, would be nice for consideration. I've heard that there is no locking gas cap. Has anyone else heard this?
Thanks for your comment. This video went well for us also. It was great for Bob and I to be able to go over the bike outside and also have Sean's expertise. As far as two up configurations, it can certainly be done. It's nice that Harley has already made accessory packages in their configurator online. As for the locking gas caps I'm not sure. Personally, I'd rather go without; although that may be an issue for some.
last I checked, there were "generic" road glide parts. Now there's quite a few ST specific.. they even have the carbon fiber trim.
Very nice. If priced right those should sell !
If I ever bought a Harley(which I won't ...), this would be the Harley I'd buy.
If I get promoted at work and the pay increased at least 10%, I might consider buying/trading-in my RGS if there is a deal that is hard to turn down.
@@rolandjosef7961 The only reason I'd consider this HD is that it is the only one that wouldn't need many thousands of dollars it "upgrades" to be good. For me, it would need only a larger windshield and passenger \ luggage accommodations. It would not need the major expenses of engine stage mods, suspension, bars, LED lighting and the smaller parts like grips, covers and bling.
Me as well, however I will never buy it for over $40K. Maybe 30K but even then its a bit too high vs what it offers.
I'm not sure, but maybe it needs a luggage rack and rear foot pegs. Plus a sissy bar and ape hangers. Would it be a better cruiser then?
Thanks guys!!
You bet!
CT!!!
Love it, I just purchased 24 CVO RG in Legendary Orange from Suburban HD outside of Milwaukee. As excited as I am about that, I really like what Harley has done for the new RG/SG. Why, Because I think Harley is giving the masses a great value with new fairings, tanks, bags, infotainment, LED lights, liquid cooled 117's, etc. Upper $20K to lower $30K. Yes that's still a lot of money, but I hope it attracts the younger crowds Harley needs to continue to grow the brand.
Well said. Its good that they're following the market and trying to appeal to a younger crowd without abandoning the older generations. It's no mystery Harley is hurting by the fact my generation isn't into motorcycles and expensive ones at that. They have to adapt to survive.
Enjoy your new CVO.
Upper 20K to Lower 30K is what this CVO ST should be. Adding an infotainment and some LED lights doesnt make it worth more or more appealing at that price point IMO. It just brings it closer to where it should have been years ago technology wise.
I was excited about this bike and have been waiting for HD to come out with something like this. Coming from a modified Vrod I wanted performance in my bagger. HD as usual though missed the mark in a few areas. First and foremost its a bagger. That generally means passenger at some point. Sure the carbon tail piece looks cool but not having an option for a rear seat at all is just stupid IMO. Those shocks do not prevent a passenger seat as many baggers have those same shocks installed without issue. It is missing some tech that other bikes like BMWs K1600b have and is almost double the price of them but could be overlooked if HD didnt price this thing like it was and SUV. For $43k+ I would expect at least Heated seats, heated grips, Carbon wheels. I almost bought a Challenger last year fully loaded with Stage 2 cams for less than this new CVO ST but Indian wanted a bunch of money down and the wait was 6+ months so I decided to wait to see what HD would do. Had the price been in line with the K1600b or even close I would have probably purchased this, I ended up with a 2023 K1600b Option 719 Midnight for 28K out the door and they even threw in a $600+ Backrest and over $600 service for free. Bike had 7 miles on it. I now have heated seats for me and passenger, electronic adjustable suspension and windscreen, 160HP and 131lbft of torque , quick shifter, LED Headlight that follows in the corners and adjusts up and down under hard acceleration and braking for about half the price of that CVO ST. I do like HDs controls a lot better though, more buttons vs having stuff buried in menus.
You have some valid points. The K1600b is a great bike, enjoy it!
I think this is an extremely attractive bike. In fact, it is so appealing to me, I was not deterred by the $50k price tag; even though I can't understand it? In the days when Harley Davidson was the only player in town, I would have held my nose and signed the papers. But it's a different time and Harley Davidson is no longer the only player in town. I can't pony up 50 Grand for this beautiful machine, when Indian has an equally equipped, equally appealing machine, the Challenger Elite, that goes for $10k less. Furthermore, I think if it wasn't for Indian, Harley-Davidson would never have made the improvements they have.
I agree 100%, when we were all on our Victory's we always told people that completion is always good for the consumer. It forced Harley to step up their game. A decade ago, before the Rushmore improvement, Harley was very stagnant. 50k is crazy, but people are still buying them. I suppose its no different then new pick up trucks being 80k.
Except it’s not an Indian no matter how much Polaris wants you to think it is. They purchased the name of a classic name and stuck it on a Victory. You’ll never pay a premium price for an imitation. If you do your nuts!
The real test will see how many failures/recalls it ends up having. If it was the only bike one would have I'd wait at least 3 years for the bugs to get worked out. Look how many years it took em just to get a decent oil pump in the m8's.
Agreed, as much as I truly like what they've done I'm also leery of first year motors.
I built a 20 FLHTP that a performance bagger. i probably got around 50k into the bike... It's a crazy runner with a baker tranny ... This cvo is going to be popular and the 25s will have more performance bagger bikes as the market desires this...
Thanks for watching, I have to agree I think you'll see a lot of these CVO STs out there and more of the performance style. My gut says a CVO ST street glide is coming soon.
@@3_AM I'm interested to see what Indian does in response. I had a challenger for a year, great bike, but so heavy in the front and suspension and brake setup that I felt unsafe on. I'm kind of settled on my hot rod FLHTP and a bmw GSA in my stable. I have the ftr1200s too, which I barely ride, but when I do I love it.
@@skippynj1979 we too are interested to see if Indian fires back. We hope to do more Indian content in the future regardless!
@@3_AM I love the engineering and thought they put into their design, but in stock form their brakes and suspension are for a different generation rider. Except the ftr... I wish Harley made comparable bike with the revolution engine.
We've said the same thing about the revolution engine. Rumor has it that streetfighter is to come out. I imagine they're still working a few bugs out of that drivetrain.
Harley Dyno number is at the crank.. I'm seeing about a 10 to 15 % loss at the wheels
Can you put some rear pegs and seat on this?
Yes, it appears you can still add them.
It’s. Great bike. Of course they could have done more.
Always could do more, but they of course leave room for the buyer to spend more money. Thanks for watching!
@@3_AM Yes, overcharge upfront and overcharge for add ons.
So… is Sean permanently at Hartford HD or was just a temporary thing…? We will miss it at Old School… 🤷🏻♂️
It's a permanent thing. He told us he decided to change it up.
@@3_AM as I mentioned, we will miss him a lot! But we will go say hi from time to time… ☺️
This bike shows that the MOCO is listening The Carbon fenders are forged not spun inverted front shocks
127 hp/ 145 tq out of the box they are trying to follow the king of the bagger style .This bike is missing CVO elements no heated grips,no locking bags, No storage cover at6000 rpm limit and track mode this is a hot rod and I probably would not tour on it there are better Harley touring bikes.All in all really great
All good points. Thanks for watching !
and the almost 20 year old Vrod is still faster. 127HP is nothing when an engine they made almost 2 decades ago did about the same at far less ci.
No place for a riders backrest... Huge miss!!! I like to go fast. Sometimes I have to take my wife. Dealers tell me there is currently no fix for this.
Yeah...no, not true. Met a guy and his wife last nite at Cape Coral, Florida bike nite. Raven black Cvo St 121 HO, gorgeous bike, but what caught my eye is a 2 up Harley seat and back rest. No resivores! He had switched left and right side shocks so the plumbing was facing rearward and mounted resivores to rear subframe so 2 up seat worked for he and his wife. Genius!! He should be a lead designer for Harley. No matter how much Harley wants to cram performance baggers down our collective throats it's not what the vast majority wants! This guy solved the puzzle..performance bagger that actually performs! Imagine that!!
Maybe he should work for Harley since they haven't figured it out yet.@@staceycole6465
They havnt released the part yet but will be pretty soon. Itll have the reservoirs relocated over slightly to accommodate putting a backrest on there. Not sure if its all one piece or not but there is a part number made for it but havnt seen it at our dealership yet.
@@GregG_88 Hey GregG that's what caught my eye on Mike and his wife's bike to begin with. His swapping left to right and right to left so the plumbing for resivores was pointing the rear was genius. One existing hole on rear subframe was used and he drilled second hole to mount. No clearance issues, it all fit perfectly. His set up allows for 2 up seat, backrest and/or tour pack. If you're determined to have resivores visible because you paid and you want all to see..so be it. The performance bagger is still a bagger. Most folks that can afford it aren't doing any track time soon. Want the performance and still take wifey to the weekend rally.
Harley ALWAYS half-asses things.
Miss for me
what do you think of the 24s overall?
could live without the eagle and pig art.
I agree there, I'm a less is more type. At least they're kind of subtle. Thanks for watching!
It is both a hit and a miss. They built a bike that lots of us "dyna bros" have been asking for, but they priced way too high. My local HD Dealer here is asking $55,000 for this bike, because they can. For 55 grand I can build me a Dyna or FXR that will blow this thing out of the water, or I could but a Indian Challenger and do some engine work and blow it out of the water. Love the bike but Harley priced it out of the reach for the average blue collar worker. Most of their bikes are priced out of range of us blue collar workers.
You're not wrong, but unfortunately there is always someone that will pay the crazy markup. 55k with MSRP being 43k is nuts. Thanks for watching.
@@3_AM Yep, and until Harley gets back to their roots and remembers who made them successful for all these years they will continue to decline in sales.
Hell the Challenger will probably beat it stock with just a tune. I like the ST and IMO its the best they have done in a long time. For the price though they could have and should have done a lot better. Still pretty lazy desgin IMO.
Cost more than a used car. And you can only ride during warm weather
Costs more than a new car lol
'promosm'
Why is the front fender black? Looks stupid. Should be white like the rest of the paint
The front fender is carbon fiber for weight savings. Its one of the common fads for performance builds right now. I suppose it's a love it or hate it look.
Miss. Big miss.
Love these cry baby comments lol.
They try to rationalize why they can’t spend the $$. 😂😂
