    I like them...esp the new Geezer Glides,they really did make changes for '14 instead of same old same old with a different color... water cooled heads,higher compression and a new cam with more bottom end torque...:DAnd as technology challenged as I am :confused: I like that infotainment set up....Maybe I will buy 1 more Harley...and this time,leave it stock LOL:jawdrop:

    Yeah they are not cheap when you add in the Canadian importer tariff
    it's under $40 k here for cvo,

    Buy one used let someone else take the hit, my guess is the CVO's will
    command a premium.

    I heard today at our HD dealer in the service dept that it is not water cooled but oil cooled. Hmmm, makes me wonder.

    I guess regular old antifreeze ain't good enough. Well, the MoCo want us to use official HD motor oil, tranny oil, fork oil, grease, etc., etc.

    Yeah, The Deeley tax:greedy:....CVO's will always be expensive and won't depreciate quite as much as the other models...Used from the US would be the way I'd go....Maybe a full blown Hydro Geezer Glide for a retirement present to myself in a few years...should have any bugs worked out by then too;)

    I can't wait to see what it is that they do with the 015 Road Glides. I think that I am going to take a trip to the dealer and go take a look. :cool:

    here is a link to the MY 2014 changes, it's a 30 meg file compressed.
    download it to your desktop, then right mouse click and expand it will
    build it's own folder on the desktop, open it and double click nmtf_en to
    start the show in a browser window.

    I just rode my Springer to the Coast and we (Hog chapter) went to Astoria on the mouth of the Columbia river. About 135 miles one way. The Springer rode so well and felt so nice I wouldn't trade it for any 2014 even straight across. :):):)

    Well, IMO Harley answered the bell to the release of the "New" Indian and kinda turned it into yesterdays news...I just wonder how the infotainment center will hold up when the bikes are 10 yrs old(average age of vehicles I buy LOL) and ridden a lot in bad weather(heavy rain,wind) The luxury SUV's at least have a roof over them:D
