Harley-davidson Cvo Road Glide

The Harley-davidson Cvo Road Glide has a top speed of 185 km/h (estimated; Harley-Davidson does not officially publish top speed figures), produces 105 hp and weighs 389 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.

La CVO (Custom Vehicle Operations) Road Glide a été introduite par Harley-Davidson dans le cadre de sa gamme haut de gamme CVO, qui a débuté en 1999, la variante Road Glide étant apparue au milieu des années 2000 en tant que moto de tourisme haut de gamme personnalisée en usine. Il présente des combinaisons de peinture exclusives, des systèmes audio haut de gamme et des composants améliorés qui ne sont pas disponibles sur les modèles standard, ce qui en fait le produit phare de la gamme Touring de Harley. La CVO Road Glide se distingue par son carénage en forme de requin, son RDRS (Reflex Defensive Rider Systems) et le moteur Milwaukee-Eight 117 ou 121 dans ses dernières versions, consolidant ainsi son statut de moto de tourisme de série les plus luxueuses disponibles.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir

💎

Strong Resale Value

CVO models typically retain 70-80% of their value after 3 years, outperforming standard Harley trims. Limited annual production numbers keep demand — and prices — consistently high.

⚠️

Watch the Infotainment System

The Boom! Box GTS infotainment system is known to develop touchscreen glitches and Bluetooth connectivity issues over time. Budget for potential dealer software updates or screen replacements around the 30,000-mile mark.

🔧

Milwaukee-Eight 117 Power

The CVO Road Glide comes exclusively with the Milwaukee-Eight 117 cubic inch engine, Harley's largest production V-twin. It runs cooler and smoother than older Twin Cams, but watch for primary chain tensioner wear after 50,000 miles.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion

8.5/10
Idéal pour
Serious long-haul riders wanting ultimate Harley prestige

"The ultimate American tourer — if your wallet can keep pace."

$26,000-$38,000 used

The CVO Road Glide is Harley's showboat — and I mean that as both a compliment and a warning. Milwaukee throws its absolute best hardware at this thing: the 117ci Milwaukee-Eight in older examples, screaming Twin-Cooled grunt, and factory paint jobs that genuinely stop traffic. Used examples from 2019-2022 sit around $28-35k, which is serious money, but you're getting a bike that dealers couldn't keep on the floor new. Here's the honest talk: these bikes are heavy, complicated, and expensive to maintain if anything goes wrong. The Boom! GTS infotainment system is genuinely good but can develop gremlins — always check it works properly before handing over cash. Inspect the front fairing mounting points carefully; they take abuse. The Milwaukee-Eight is generally bulletproof past break-in, but check service history religiously. Buy one with documented dealer servicing and under 30,000 miles and you'll have a touring machine that embarrasses bikes costing far more. Skip the bargains with sketchy histories — CVO ownership rewards patience.
