A shark-nosed touring beast packed with premium tech, luxury, and plenty of street appeal. This is how you take the road with power and style.
Authentic Styling
- Exclusive CVO™ Enhancements: All the quality. All the legacy of the Harley-Davidson® name. Plus custom touches and performance that distinguish you from every other bike on the road. Sure there's a little vanity. Premium custom paint. Big, tricked-out wheels. The perfect storm of engineering and style you'll only find on a custom machine. And you'll spoil yourself with the accessories—from comfort to electronics to chrome. But the real signature of a Harley-Davidson® Custom Vehicle Operations™ motorcycle is the explosive power and sleek detailing of the huge Screamin' Eagle® engine. It's custom-built, not just for anyone, but for true connoisseurs of the road.
- High-Impact Styling: Individually crafted and hand finished, high-impact paint and graphics come standard on all Harley-Davidson® Custom Vehicle Operations™ motorcycles. The CVO Road Glide offers three, exclusive new color schemes for 2012, with bold Real Smoke graphics adorning the gas tank and plenty of matching paint on the fairing and upper fork covers, fenders, saddlebags, and more. Plus, the fuel tank and fairing sport brushed-nickel "skull" medallions. Skimping? The word's simply not in our vocabulary.
- Low-profile GTX® Saddlebags: These injection-molded hard bags have room for 2.26 cu. ft. volume of long-haul luxuries and a perfect surface for showing off some premium paint. Even better, they open from the top, so your gear won't end up spilled all over the highway. They keep your fancy unmentionables dry, and the chrome latches won't corrode in bad weather. And when you're off the road, one common key starts the bike and opens your saddlebags. But all that usefulness doesn't come at the cost of style. In fact, it's the bags' stretched bottom design and contoured composite skirts that wrap over the exhaust that helps give your CVO Road Glide Custom its low, lean and mean road profile.
- Chrome Dual Exhaust: The premium custom look goes the distance on the CVO Road Glide Custom model with the chrome dual exhaust. Featuring 4-inch touring mufflers, black billet muffler end caps with chrome spears and chrome touring shields. Relish the style, rumble and performance of these high-end pipes.
- Classic Full Fenders: These long, full fenders do a lot more than keep the mud off your neck. With its front fender trimmed up and slammed to the tire, they give your CVO Road Glide Custom its long low lines and classic touring profile. It's a stylish nod to tradition that acknowledges the modern.
- Custom Agitator Wheels: These wheels are gorgeous in every way. Bold 19-inch front and 18-inch back wheels deliver a dramatic profile. Plus, you'll still get that custom Agitator style—wheels with a seven spoke design, mirror chrome finish, and matching full-floating brake rotors with a chrome center hub.
- Hand Finished Fuel Tank: Harley-Davidson® fuel tanks are finished by hand—that's what makes them stand out from the competition. Their seamless design and unmatched style are unique among all motorcycles on the road. The tanks are one of the first and last things people notice when they lay their eyes on a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle—so we make it worth their time. And a classically styled, bold six-gallon fuel tank doesn't just give you a bigger canvas for premium, custom paint; it holds six gallons of go so you can eat up a lot more road between pit stops.
- Custom Rear Taillight and Fascia: We keep the back end clean and no-nonsense with tri-line fender lights—a brilliant, unique taillight as the centerpiece—plus ground effects and a low mounted license plate with LED lighting for crisp visibility and style. This completes the powerful, one-of-a-kind look.
- Fat Ape-Hanger Handlebar: Grab hold of these black ape-hanger handlebars and put your fists way up in the wind. The 90-degree welds scream garage custom, and the internal wiring preserves a clean, premium look while bringing old-school chopper flavor to your top-of-the line custom cruiser.
- Gloss Black Powertrain: Can something menacing also be elegant? Here's the proof. The CVO™ Road Glide® Custom's powertrain gleams with a gloss black powdercoat finish on every element, from rocker box covers to crankcase, cylinders, and transmission side cover. It's tuxedo-fine styling that's dripping with unmistakably raw attitude.
- Blacked-out Powertrain: Can something menacing also be elegant? Here's the proof. The CVO Road Glide Custom's black powder-coated powertrain gleams with a gloss black engine and transmission covers. It's every element, from rocker box covers to crankcase, cylinders, and transmission side cover embody tuxedo-fine styling that's dripping with unmistakably raw attitude.
Iconic Engine
- Screamin' Eagle® Twin Cam 110™ Engine Heritage: The knowledge of what makes an engine truly move a rider runs deep at The Motor Company, and it was put to good use when we created the Screamin' Eagle® Twin Cam 110™ engine. We sweated bullets perfecting every cubic inch, pushing design and technology forward. And we did it all without compromising one bit of Harley-Davidson's unique styling. Evolved, yet carrying on the legacy of the Flathead, Knucklehead, Panhead, Shovelhead, Evolution® and Twin Cam 88® engines that came before. The performance and durability are a direct result of the untold miles logged on the V-Twin since 1909, and the proud heritage that comes from a century's worth of commitment to life on two wheels.
- Pure Harley-Davidson Styling: Feast your eyes on the Twin Cam 110™ engine and there's no mistaking its roots. This is authentic Harley-Davidson® style through and through with an attention to detail you won't find from any other motorcycle company. Exclusive to the Custom Vehicle Operations™ line, the granite colored powertrain with chrome covers and 110 badges is unapologetically distinguished. It's a jewel machined out of metal. Pure. Dripping with power. From the classic edge of the cooling fins to the clean lines of cases and covers—the Twin Cam 110™ engine makes an ironclad statement to holding on to what's right and staying true to what satisfies the rider.
- Six-Speed Cruise Drive®: You want a ride that rumbles—not begs for mercy—when you lean on it a little. The Six-Speed Cruise Drive® transmission provides smooth, quiet shifting and reduces engine speed on the highway, so you get a better match between engine turnover and road speed. And the Isolated Drive System makes acceleration flow in a smooth, steady stream from your wrist right down to the pavement. It's a rare ride when a bike responds like this when you're opening up the road ahead.
- Hydraulic Clutch: Performance gets the custom treatment on Custom Vehicle Operations™ motorcycles. The addition of a high-performance clutch with hydraulic actuation helps make sure you're getting a smooth, confident feel with just the right amount of effort and a hands-off reliability that's only fitting. And you'll love the confidence and control it lends when harnessing those 110 cubic inches of Screamin' Eagle® power.
- Screamin' Eagle® Twin Cam 110™ Engine Innovation: Fire up the Twin Cam 110™ engine and feel the low-end torque unleashed. The colossal 110 cubic inches provide seemingly endless torque with adrenaline-pumping pull through all six gears. Boasting the largest-displacement V-Twin engine by Harley-Davidson, the Twin Cam 110™ engine produces 115 ft. lbs. of torque at 4000 rpm. Six speeds. A strong driveline and strong internal parts. And a low cruising rpm that couldn't feel better.
- "Ventilator" Intake with Screamin' Eagle® 110 Insert: Everything about the Screamin' Eagle® Twin Cam 110™ Engine is a testament to the premium styling and performance you get with a limited Harley-Davidson® motorcycle. Right smack between the engine jugs rests the high-flow "ventilator" intake with high-flow filter element, back plate, diamond-cut Screamin' Eagle badge and protective rain sock. Your bike will breathe easy while the increased air flow boosts the raw power. Unique and exclusive. That is what Custom Vehicle Operations™ is all about.
- "Heavy Breather" Performance Air Cleaner: Added for 2012, this high-flow, forward facing exposed air cleaner is sure to turn heads with its black anodized styling, as it boosts your Screamin' Eagle® Twin Cam 110™ engine's performance for even more power.
Technology
- Enhanced Harman Kardon® Audio System with iPod® 2012 CVO CVO Road Glide Custom Motorcycle Enhanced Harman Kardon® Audio System with iPod®: Naturally, the king of the road gets some royal extras. New for 2012, we bumped up this Custom's premium Harman Kardon® audio system with a high output 100W per channel amplifier and in-fairing two-way 5x7-inch speakers and tweeters, for even better booming down the boulevards. And to play your tunes, we'll even throw in an exclusively-styled Harley-Davidson® 8GB iPod nano. The system's integrated iPod interface charges it as it play, and lets you control it right from the hand controls.
- Anti-Lock Brakes: When it comes to the CVO Road Glide Custom model with ABS, 'stopping power' has a double meaning. The components of our ABS are tastefully hidden within the wheel hub, so you'll still turn heads with a clean, streamlined design. More importantly, though, you get certainty in the saddle knowing your bike's going to behave when you need it.
- Electronic Cruise Control: If you're ready to take Touring to the next level, the cruise control feature will help you settle in for the long haul. Get the comfort of the cruise without the cables cluttering up your handlebar. Our electronic throttle control technology makes it possible to have the best of both worlds.
- H-D® Smart Security System with Siren and Automatic Bike Lock: The factory installed next-generation security system with siren features a hands-free fob that automatically arms and disarms the vehicle electronic security functions as you approach and walk away from the bike. Stick the fob on your ignition key ring and let it do all the work. For additional peace of mind, the automatic bike lock features a key fob that locks the ignition, Tour-Pak and saddlebags so you won't have to worry about leaving your valuables tucked away on your ride. It's this attention to details and rider security that make Harley-Davidson® motorcycles unique.
- Accessory Connector: Beyond the unique paint and graphics. Beyond the broad band of power. Beyond the cool custom features. You can enhance your Custom Vehicle Operations™ motorcycle even more by taking advantage of the exhaustive catalogue of Harley-Davidson® add-ons and accessories. The connector sits discreetly under the rider seat to the left, making sure that whatever you envision for your bike is easily within your reach, and can be plugged in with ease.
- Artfully Hidden Technology: Harley-Davidson® leverages the latest in technology without compromising style and function. That means we hide electronics. The whole wiring harness is skillfully routed behind the jewels of the bike—the tank, engine and all the other eye-popping features you want to see. It's just another way The Motor Company goes the extra mile to give its bikes that premium, top-of-the-line fit and finish.
- Intuitive Controls: Hand controls on a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle are incredibly intuitive. The turn signals are self-canceling and, based on the speed and angle of the motorcycle, they know how long to stay on. Engaging the controls quickly becomes second nature so you can focus less on turning off your signal and more on basking in the freedom of the ride.
Handling
- Frame-Mounted Fairing: The iconic frame-mounted Shark-Nose fairing always leads you in the direction of the open road. Its distinctive style and attitude make it an original in motorcycling history and a defining element of the legendary Harley-Davidson® Road Glide. But it also earns its way with performance: bolted to the motorcycle frame, it stays put and cuts down the wind to make your ride smooth and easygoing, while its integrated storage gives you a place to keep the valuables you need to access easily your journey.
- Touring Chassis: A true Touring bike has to be tough enough to take on thousands of miles for years to come. Our Touring chassis is designed to do just that. Based on a single-spar, rigid backbone frame and swingarm, it easily handles the hum of that big Screamin' Eagle® engine, and it's built to last. Perfect for riders that always take the scenic route.
- Brembo® Brakes: Confidence. Control. High-performance dual disc Brembo® brakes offer consistent stopping power. The 4-piston front and rear calipers with dual front rotor brake system is state of the art and top of the line. It's just another way The Motor Company puts a high level of detail into their bikes to give you peace of mind throughout your journey.
- Air-Adjustable Suspension: With air-adjustable suspension that comes standard, you can dial in your ride to accommodate heavier or lighter payloads, unexpected road conditions or simply set it to how you like to roll. The lighter the load, the softer you can go by decreasing the air pressure a bit, or increase the air pressure for a more rigid ride. It's all about rider and passenger comfort and setting your bike to fit your taste—the easy way.
- Tuned to be Ridden: Harley-Davidson® motorcycles are different than any other bike out on the road. There's a balance to them. The steering, the maneuverability—it's all in concert. And each Harley-Davidson® model is tuned differently to create a unique riding experience for each individual no matter which bike they swing their leg over. Let's face it, we didn't get to where we are by being like everyone else.
Comfort
- Two-Piece Seat (With Solo Option): The ultimate in custom touring style and comfort in either solo or two-up configuration. Whether you'd rather be a lone road ranger or roll with a passenger, this Ultra's custom leather saddle goes the distance in luxury and looks. With its low profile and color-coordinated diamond pattern stitching (or cover, depending on the color combo you choose) it offers custom style all the way—while its deep bucket is trimmed in at the thighs and sculpted to hold you close to your ride and the road, so you can log the miles without getting weary.
- Full-Length Footboards: Your boots were made for riding, in any way you see fit. Our full-length rider footboards boast a tried and true design that's stood the test of time. Rubber vibration isolation offers a comfortable ride every time. And heel and toe shifting makes getting through the gears quick and easy. Plus, height adjustable passenger boards add another level of comfort for your riding partner.
- 2-1-2 Exhaust: Welcome to the crossroads of pure Harley-Davidson® style and smart engineering. The 2-1-2 exhaust helps direct heat away from the rider and passenger, while providing ample performance, and signature Harley-Davidson® rumble, and big style.
- Engine Idle Temperature Management Strategy: Our motorcycles are built to be ridden. A lot. So that means that rider comfort is top of mind. Always. With the Engine Idle Temperature Management Strategy (EITMS) feature, the motorcycle automatically cuts fuel and fire from the rear cylinder when idling, which helps reduce engine heat felt by rider and passenger. Best part, you can easily turn this feature on or off yourself whenever the bike is stopped.
- "Windsplitter" Smoked Windshield: For long two-lane or interstate hauls, comfort against the wind can dictate whether you make the next state or pull off at the next exit. Our improved "Windsplitter" windshield makes the CVO Road Glide Custom a wind-deflecting force to be reckoned with. Add to that some Road Glide wind deflectors and you've got a machine designed to make sure the only thing in your face is the sunset on the horizon.
