You have a beautiful bike! The KW tip set it off. I needed that seat when I rode to San Diego and Mexico. I love the silver stitching. It coordinates with the treamings!
Sorry you had that experience. My Saddlemen seats have been very comfortable. I have another one on my Ultra Limited. I hope you have something comfortable now.
Thank you for the video. I have the 23 RG CVO, they are awesome. Did you get the extended reach Road Sofa? Im 6'2" and im thinking about getting the road sofa extended reach. However, I really wish I could sit lower on my bike. How much higher is the roadsofa than the stock seat? thank you
Just saw this color in person. I'm going to be a kill joy. For a 6K I'm not impressed. The biggest upgrade to buying an CVO is the paint! Look at several paint schemes of the past 5 years on CVO that didn't have a upcharge. Even a few of the past up charges were 3k. I'm far from a CVO hater as there is an up side to buying one. It's ready to go, holds value etc. But Harley now for the last year is only doing 1 standard paint and then a 6K upgrade. They use to do like 3 and weren't up charging.
No worries friend, thanks for replying. I appreciate your opinion. Did you see the legendary orange on the street or road glide? Personally, I think it looks better on the road glide. For me, I was ready to make another purchase. I bought my 2015 Ultra Limited 9 years ago and wanted all the new 2024 upgrades; styling, infortainment, 121 vvt, and I wanted to try the shark nose fairing. I do like the classic Harley orange and black, but the rear of the bike is too plain. All ORANGE and nothing else? That's my disappointment as a buyer.
Thanks! My dealer told me if you're just doing the slip ons, no calibration is needed. If you do a Screaming Eagle Air Cleaner, you do need it tuned, but get this, Harley hasn't come out with one yet. Not sure about aftermarket. For now, I just put the Khrome Werks slip-ons with the louvered baffles. They have a decent sound and I didn't notice any loss of power.
It is not extended reach, I'm 6 feet tall. I'm still breaking the Road Sofa in. Rode Sunday for 5 hours. The first 1.5 to 2 hours are no problem. Seat feels great. Then you need a break for sure. We had lunch for an hour at the Harley Museum. Rode again for another 1.5 hours, took another break and did it again. You get soar faster after the first part of your ride. Hope that explains it well enough. I've been told the more you break it in, the longer you will be able to travel. 🤞
We are still breaking in the new Road Sofa. After 1.5 to 2 hours on the bike, we both want to get off to take a break. My wife prefers our 15 Ultra Limited because of how the backrest wraps around her. But she also prefers the chopped tour pak as opposed to the sissy bar on the new CVO. Hope that helps.
I'm sure there's a break in period for Saddlemen seats that can last up to 1,000 miles or longer for some. I've only had the seat for 150 miles and for me, it's much more comfortable than the stock seat right of out the box because of the gel insert. My hope is the more I ride it, the more comfortable it will get. I could only last about 45 minutes to an hour on the OG seat before I had to take a break and get off the bike.
Sure, I'll do that for you tomorrow....so by tomorrow night, I'll have it uploaded for you. I'm NOT a fancy RUclips person so I don't have microphones and all of that fancy equipment. All I use is the newest iPhone 15 plus. Congrats on your new CVO. It's been 10 years since I purchased a new bike, so I splurged. The louvered baffles are nice with the kw mufflers and more importantly I didn't feel any power loss which is nice.
Spring! Bring it on! The bike looks ready for some miles! Great choices.
Thanks Tom! Love your RUclips channel!!!
You have a beautiful bike! The KW tip set it off. I needed that seat when I rode to San Diego and Mexico. I love the silver stitching. It coordinates with the treamings!
You also have a beautiful bike!!🤩
Gorgeous bike. Paint is amazing
Thanks!
I’ve been looking at the same bike. I have did a test ride and I love it. Congratulations I’m subscribed
Thank you!! I hope you get it. My 15 Ultra Limited has a SE 110, but this 121vvt is FAST!!!
love the seat.. except its not compatible with rear Crash bars at this time. !!And BTW.. the Pink turns gray pretty quick..
Great looking bike.
Thank you!!
I can’t wait to get mine!!!
Gorgeous bike man!
Thank you!! I already have 1500 miles on it!! Love the power upgrade.
I love that bike bro
Thank you!!
Beautiful bike
Thank you. I just put a ceramic coat on the paint. It's so clean and glossy, I don't want to take it out of the garage!!!
Saddlemen seat I had on my 21 RGL was an absolute brick to ride on after 5,000 miles.
Sorry you had that experience. My Saddlemen seats have been very comfortable. I have another one on my Ultra Limited. I hope you have something comfortable now.

Great bike, I love that color scheme. When you installed your slip ons did you have to get the bike recalibrated
What baffles did you go with?
Thanks! My dealer told me if you're just doing the slip ons, no calibration is needed. If you do a Screaming Eagle Air Cleaner, you do need it tuned, but get this, Harley hasn't come out with one yet. Not sure about aftermarket.

Is this the extended reach? Are you still happy with it?
It is not extended reach, I'm 6 feet tall. I'm still breaking the Road Sofa in. Rode Sunday for 5 hours. The first 1.5 to 2 hours are no problem. Seat feels great. Then you need a break for sure.

How is the seat & setup for passenger comfort?
We are still breaking in the new Road Sofa. After 1.5 to 2 hours on the bike, we both want to get off to take a break.
