Harley-davidson Road Glide Cvo Ultra

The Harley-davidson Road Glide Cvo Ultra has a top speed of 185 km/h (estimated; note: electronically limited in some markets), produces 93 hp and weighs 432 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.

La CVO (Custom Vehicle Operations) Road Glide Ultra a été présentée par Harley-Davidson en tant que moto de tourisme haut de gamme personnalisée en usine, faisant partie de la gamme CVO lancée en 1999. Il présentait des combinaisons de peinture exclusives, des systèmes audio améliorés et des composants haut de gamme non disponibles sur les modèles standard, ce qui en faisait l'une des offres les plus luxueuses de la gamme Harley-Davidson. Le modèle s'est particulièrement distingué par son carénage en forme de nez de requin doté de deux phares, son moteur Milwaukee-Eight 117 à double refroidissement au cours des dernières années et son système d'infodivertissement de haut niveau, consolidant ainsi son statut de véhicule phare de tourisme longue distance.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir

🔊

Premium Audio System

The CVO Ultra features a factory Rockford Fosgate Stage II audio system with fairing and saddlebag speakers, delivering concert-quality sound rarely matched by competitors. It's one of the most capable stock touring audio setups on the market.

⚠️

Watch the Milwaukee-Eight Heat

The Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine runs significantly hotter than previous HD motors, and some owners report discomfort from heat soak in slow traffic. Inspect for signs of oil seepage around the pushrod tubes, a known weak point on high-mileage examples.

💰

Strong Resale Value

CVO models consistently retain 10-15% more resale value than standard Road Glide Ultras due to their limited production numbers and exclusive paint schemes. Buying used can still command a premium, so verify the original MSRP to negotiate fairly.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion

8.5/10
Idéal pour
Long-haul riders wanting factory luxury without new-bike pain

"Premium tourer that rewards patient used buyers willing to research thoroughly."

$22,000-$28,000 used

The CVO Ultra Road Glide is essentially Harley's greatest hits album on two wheels — Milwaukee-Eight 117, factory paint that makes custom builders weep, and enough electronics to embarrass bikes costing twice as much. Used examples from 2019 onward hit a sweet spot where you're getting cornering ABS, hill hold, and that BOOM! GTS audio system without paying CVO's brutal new-bike premium. Depreciation on these is real and works in your favor. That said, go in with eyes open. The 117 runs hot in traffic — genuinely uncomfortable in summer gridlock. Check service records obsessively; owners who skipped oil changes on a $40k bike exist and they're selling now. Inspect the fairing lowers for stress cracks and verify the Bluetooth still pairs cleanly, because dealer fixes aren't cheap. Earlier models had occasional throttle-by-wire hiccups worth noting. Bottom line: buy one with a paper trail, haggle hard at the $22-26k mark, and you've got one of the most capable long-haul tourers America builds.
