Key features of the CVO Road Glide
- The exclusive Knockout wheels each have seven double spokes that extend into the rims to visually enlarge the wheel diameter. The CVO Road Glide is currently the only Harley-Davidson touring model with a 21-inch front wheel. Your fork has been re-tuned to match the large wheel size. An 18-inch model is used at the rear of the machine.
- The “Fang” front spoiler visually lowers the front of the CVO Road Glide and adds a fascinating custom feature to its look.
- The frame-fixed sharknose cladding of the CVO Road Glide developed in the wind tunnel ensures excellent aerodynamic properties and optimizes driving comfort. Thanks to the triple “Splitstream Vent” air ducts, turbulence in the driver’s head area is effectively prevented. The “Daymaker” LED double headlight integrated into the paneling guarantees perfect illumination of the road in the dark.
- To make loading and unloading easier, the locks on the two hard-shell cases can be easily opened and closed with one hand.
- A “Screamin’ Eagle Heavy Breather ”air filter increases the air supply to the combustion chambers and underlines the cool hot rod style.
- The integrated Wireless Headset Interface Module (WHIM) enables the wireless connection of Bluetooth headsets to the “Boom! Box GTS “infotainment system.
