Nice CVO on a ride today .

nice

Yes , a CVO Duece , 2003/4(ish) . came in Blue and Yellow as well I believe

Factory built 1550 cc , twin front disc etc etc

Never sold in Australia when new

Would have been an idiot wanker price , $50 K+ or something of that ilk , so none of the local importers at the time could be bothered

They turn up regularly on US eBay and Craigslist etc 12-14 K USD

I've seen a couple of recent imports here in Perth but not that "color" ( sorry "colour" haha )

I know the guy Retro , he,s had it for years and is immaculate .

Put a chromed Springer front end on it and you have a 2007 FXSTSSE CVO Springer Softail.

Bobtail rear guard and the 110 motor and you're there mate !

You can clearly see the lineage

One of the two I've seen up close in Perth is very nice ( very very nice !) , a Yellow one

The other , a Blue , was a rough as fuck , obviously a finance repo with all that that ensues.

The "roughie" was costing the guy who imported it upwards of $22 K Aussie dollars he reckoned ??

I didn't say anything to him , but my mate's 2008 CVO Anniversary Springer was $30 K on the road in WA !!

My own 2008 Springer CVO was less than that of my mate.
