Harley-Davidson’s CVO are the company’s Cadillacs of motorcycling. And if you caught that movie reference, you can figure out about how old the CVO program is, too. The CVO tradition of giving customers the ultimate in Harley-Davidson styling, innovation and performance continues in 2019 with the CVO Limited, the CVO Street Glide and the CVO Road Glide models. Each model offers its owner a fully customised, limited-edition motorcycle straight from the factory with a two-year unlimited warranty.
Three 2019 Harley-Davidson CVO models offer show-stopping finishes, advanced technology, exclusive components and attention to detail that borders on obsessive. The Harley-Davidson Custom Vehicle Operations program creates limited-production Harley-Davidson motorcycle models for the most-discerning customers, often using finishes, materials and accessories that are only available on a CVO model.
And now, let’s meet our contestants…
2019 CVO Limited
The CVO Limited also has a Blaze Red band on the engine rocker boxes as well as sporting the new Kahuna Collection (shifter pegs, brake pedal cover, muffler end caps, heated grips and rider and passenger foot boards).
2019 CVO Street Glide
Color options for the 2019 CVO Street Glide include Charred Steel/Lightning Silver with Contrast Chrome Talon wheels, Wineberry/Black Forest with Contrast Anodize Talon wheels, and Black Forest with Contrast Anodize Talon wheels.
2019 CVO Road Glide
Premium Paint and Finishes
Harley-Davidson CVO models feature exclusive paint colors and designs. The CVO models are also used to introduce new finish treatments as an alternative to traditional chrome. CVO Fade Paint is an extremely complex treatment. Developed exclusively for Harley-Davidson, the fade effect goes from a lighter to darker shade as it moves higher on the motorcycle and is very carefully aligned on each piece of bodywork to create the illusion that the motorcycle is being lighted from below. This paint treatment relies on expertly programmed robotic application of multiple layers of paint. Black Onyx is a finish featured on the exhaust of the darkest styling treatments offered for CVORoad Glide and CVO Street Glide models. This “physical vapor deposition” finish is applied over chrome. The finish was originally developed for mil-spec and jewelry applications. It’s very durable but also so thin that in bright light the underlying chrome is visible through the Black Onyx finish.
High-Performance Engines
The Milwaukee-Eight® 117 is exclusive to CVO models and features 117 cubic inch displacement, a high-performance camshaft and intake, an elevated 10.2:1 compression ratio and produces up to 125 ft. lbs. of torque. On 2019 models the Milwaukee-Eight 117 for CVO is identified by a bright Blaze Red band on the engine rocker boxes.
Premium Boom! Audio
CVO Street Glide: Six Boom! Stage II bi-amped speakers (paired in the fairing, lowers and saddlebag lids) with 150 watts per channel from three separate 300 watt amplifiers for 900 watts total power – the most outrageous factory-installed Harley-Davidson audio system designed to surround the rider in rich, clear sound.
CVO Limited: Four Boom! Stage I speakers (paired in fairing and Tour-Pak® carrier) powered by a single amplifier and 75 watts per channel.
CVO Road Glide: Four Boom! Stage II bi-amped speakers (paired in fairing and saddlebag lids) with 150 watts of power per channel from two separate 300 watt amplifiers for 600 watts total power.
