      You're probably right. I'm an early adopter. I knew I was going to buy this bike the moment I watched the release video. I expected some issues, but there are some that should have been caught pre-production

      @noahknight4039 Před 8 měsíci +1

      That’s true, especially if the bike has a lot of new tech. The Sportster S had a lot of growing pains, mainly because of the Infotainment/LCD screen and software.
      False codes, the bike not knowing what mode it’s in and you have to shut it off and restart, ect.
      IMO the biggest flaw with newer Harley’s is the infotainment software.

      @@RidingandWrenchingthis is just my opinion but I’m sure the issues you’re having with your bike when you ask how did it make it off the manufacturing line to be sold is because the 120th anniversary CVO. Harley took a huge L with the 120th anniversary CVO and in my opinion I believe they rushed the release of this CVO to make up for the terrible reception the 120th got. I personally believe this bike was supposed to come out in 2024, but after losing so many CVO customers to the Indian Pursuit and Challenger Elite they had to push up the release. I could be 100% wrong but that’s just what it felt like to me.

    I bought a beautiful Road Glide, and owned it for a total of 1000 miles. 4 days after I bought it, the entire wiring fried itself, and had to be replaced. 2 weeks later, the throttle by wire failed in rush hour traffic, and 2 weeks later, the oil pump failed, and burned up one of the pistons. Yeah, everything was covered, but I didn't trust the bike, at that point. Fortunately, Harley took the bike back, and applied my down payment, and warranty, onto a new bike. I bought a 2023 Road King Special, in all black. It runs like a champ.

    Great video Cue, I have to say though that Harley isn't alone in pushing out vehicles before they are ready. I am a technician at a luxury German car dealership and it is very frustrating and disappointing how poor the quality control is on new vehicles and the number of recalls issued to address problems that should have been discovered and fixed before the vehicles are released. The manufacturer stands behind their vehicles, but customers are still being inconvenienced and confidence in the product suffers. Glad you are still enjoying the CVO in spite of the glitches.

    Excellent review, Thank You - Test drove a RG CVO last week and have a 22 RG Limited. I was very impressed with it but wondered about all the new features and tech stuff. Seems Harley has always had issues on new model releases, like the M8. After the ride I thought about getting one but wondered about potential issues and decided it'd be best to wait for a future model after the bugs are worked out. the sound system was terrific. I'd disable that stupid kick-stand feature, seems it's more problematic then helpful. Totally different look for a Road Glide, I'm on my third one.

    @JonathanSBanks Před 9 měsíci +1

    Nice Job Cue! I guess I'm pretty lucky in that the only issues I can really complain about is my right side pocket opening in high winds or over big bumps. Harley absolutely needs to fix the kickstand and tip-over warning issues. Those are safety issues and I for one am not trying to Beta test something that can potentially cause bodily harm to myself, a passenger or anyone else. I hope this is a fairly isolated issue, but at the very least we need a statement from Harley on this. As for the the suspension, it's not perfect, but as a big guy, I think it is leagues above previous models. The settings in the manual are not exact and you have to play with them, but once locked in, the suspension rivals my previous Legend Revo-A and Ohlins 044 setups for handling and ride comfort. I totally agree that the engine in this bike is phenomenal. Harley absolutely did a great thing here.

    Great video. I’ve been watching your videos forever but after today’s video I’m a subscriber! Love how you expressed your true feelings about the bike. So many you tubers (some of which you mention from time to time) never have anything to say that might effect their relationship with Harley. I am on my second 2023 Street Glide CVO. Had leaking oil issues on the second day of ownership and a tip over warning that they could not get to go off a couple of days later, new bike. The new bike seems to be better but I still have the CarPlay issues. Just received a recall notice yesterday so it’ll head to the shop shortly. What bothers me must is that Harley will not step up and hey we have a few issues but are working diligently to correct them. Just wishful thinking on my behalf. Anyway, keep up the good work and try not to let to much time go by between videos. Thanks.

    As a Harley owner for 20 years, I've learned anything new is pretty much validated by the consumer, fixed on later models, and sometimes offered as an upgrade at an unreasonable COST to early adopters who did Harley's validation for them. Could be cam tensioners, oil pumps, cush sprockets, fairing mounts, your issues, etc. My issues with my 2023 Wing Tour auto since Feb and 6k miles are that I can't find more time to ride it in Michigan with owning a Summer seasonal business.
    Love your videos, Cue. I watch them all.

      I expected issues with the bike...just not this many. The sad part is that I'm betting someone knew about them and either said nothing or there was a push to get the bikes out by the 120th. Either way, it makes Harley look bad in my opinion. It's a shame because this is an extraordinary bike

    Thank you for sharing. I have not had issues with the kick stand yet but I was not told about this feature so naturally I thought something was wrong with my bike when I put the kick stand down while in 1st gear, just prior to shutting it off. I thought it just died. I too have had some issues with the blue tooth connectivity. Also struggling to get parts for it for the Stage 1 Upgrade. Finally found some slip ons from Krome Werks and I finally got the S&S air cleaner to upgrade from the giant air cleaner that comes stock. I am also waiting for Klock Werks to come out with the 9in windshield as I am only 5' 8" and the ones that Harley has and the ones that Klock Werks currently have available are to tall for me.

    I'm glad I watched this. I love the styling of the new CVO and 2024 Street Glide but I figured there was going to be problems with all the new electronics. I agree, they should have waited until they hammered all those things out, especially since these bikes are so expensive. One thing Harley knows how to do is charge high dollar for their stuff.

    First year model problems... glad to hear your engine is operating well. I am looking out for 121 VVT engine reviews. HD has a history of first year model problems. Look how long it took them to solve the oil sumping with 7 or so oil pump redesigns. HD stock suspensions on their touring bikes has always been garbage. I have read that the new CVO suspension is an improvement over previous years. Thanks for the review. :-)

    I just bought this bike on Dec 19th 2023 it had 9 miles on it. I put an additional 8 miles on it the day they delivered it to my house which was the 22nd of Dec. I have started it a few times a week since then. I had the engine light come on and I checked the codes and reset them. It went away for couple more times of starting it and let it idol. Now it's on again so I ran the code and looked it up it has something to do with the coolant system. Now the dealership is coming to pick it up to check it out. I'm a little nervous to be having issues already with only 17 miles on it. I always swore I wouldn't buy a Harley I've always owned Honda's and never had one issue. I bought it in hopes since they redesigned it in 2023 that they made progress in there quality making.I just hope it's an easy fix and runs great after this. I also have two hose like components running up in front of my gas tank that rub against my handle bar housing causing black marks on it. I don't see away to keep these from doing that. Last but not least on my exhaust side of the bike I had a wire harness hanging down about 3cm from the exhaust so I had to use electrical tape to cover the wires going into the harness and zip that harness up to the frame. I'm sorry but 45,000 dollar bike I shouldn't be noticing wires like that or the other issues I mentioned. It's a beautiful bike and rides smooth but they need to fix this before it even gets sent out. The CVO is there top bike so build it like it is.

    The MoCo isn’t revolutionary, it’s evolutionary. Each time it comes up with new old technology…it seems to take at least three model years to get the bugs worked out. They should have the vvt and electronics sorted by around 2026… probably just in time for the big water cooled twin to be introduced (restarting the evolution trend clock).

    • @RidingandWrenching
      @RidingandWrenching  Před 9 měsíci

      I have a very favorable opinion of the VVT. I have no idea how it works, but I can tell you that the output is exceptional. Great power AND great fuel economy. That is a rare feat.
      Also, this bike is water cooled just like prior M8's on the limited models. The difference that I have seen is the location of the coolant reservoir and the size/location of the radiator.

    Great synopsis. Thank you. I was considering the CVO Street Glide but it sounds like there are a lot of kinks still to be ironed out.
    My Street Glide ST has some of the issues you mention like the fairing compartment door popping open when going over a bump so that might be a legacy issue. I also preordered the Sportster S and had a similar experience with glitchy tech and new features not working on top of extreme unreliability so I sold it.
    Sometimes I wonder how these things are tested, if at all, and which issues are knowingly allowed out the door to be resolved later.

    Very good sir. I just discovered your channel so I will have to check out your other videos. I'm considering a CVO in the near future and it's nice to hear some real reviews. The good and the bad. I was concerned with the infotainment center. It almost seems to me that with there being so many different things it could be a rider distraction. Any thoughts guys ? I like to be able to access the stereo without aggravation. As well as monitor engine vitals and speedometer. For me, everything else is just a distraction.
