2009 Harley Davidson CVO Road Glide

H-D Junkie — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 18:38:45 +0000

Each year the Harley Davidson CVO team picked a few models from the main lineup, overhaul them, and then release them as premium editions that have a lot in common with their roots but plenty to stand out as well. In 2009 they decided that it was time for the Road Glide to have it’s turn in the spotlight. Here’s some of the highlights.

As with most models in the touring lineup, the CVO Road Glide has arrived on the scene in 2009 with a newly redesigned frame. This new backbone is more adept as providing a smooth ride even with the the 110 cubic-inch Screamin’ Eagle powerhouse settled in. New front fork and rear shocks also are integrated to add to the improved ride quality.

While the premium motor is nothing to shake a stick at, this CVO edition gets a number of other upgrades as well. Some of these include the “slammed’ front fender, the characteristic front fairing with custom paint, saddlebag extensions, matching rear fascia, and chrome 18″ “Blade” wheels. The custom paint shop produces these bikes in three color combinations only and the bike is shown here in Electric Orange/Vivid Black.

In 2009 the Harley Davidson CVO team produced limited quantities of the Softail Springer custom-styled motorcycle. This bike incorporates classic styling from nose to tail with the most noticeable features being the custom springer from fork, custom seat, wheels, and bobtail rear fender.

Power was not forgotten either and the Softail Springer was given the 110″ air-cooled Screamin’ Eagle engine. Living up to it’s name, this fuel injected work horse puts out a full 110 ft-lbs of torque at 3,000 rpm. Once you take a ride and feel that power channeled through the six-speed transmission, you’ll instantly be able to tell the difference between a CVO and all the rest.

Other notable features include the Road Winder chrome forged aluminum wheels, 4-piston front caliper, and horseshoe oil tank. Last but not least is the custom CVO paint job which comes in four layouts and shown here in Candy Cobalt with Blue Steel Flames.

Every year Harley Davidson riders say that the bikes coming out of the Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO) divsion can’t get any better and every year the team tries to prove them wrong.

One of the limited edition models on the 2009 lineup is the Screamin’ Eagle Fat Bob. This loud and flashy bike is supped up with a the 110 cubic-inch Screamin’ Eagle V-Twin engine that cranks out 114 ft-lbs of torque at 3,500 rpm.

Styling on this special edition Harley Davidson includes a number of upgrades the most notable of which are a custom seat, two-piece control console, a premium suspension system, custom chin spoiler, and fang wheels. Available in five CVO-only color combinations and shown here in Yellow Pearl/Platinum Quartz.
