Sorry to hear, what baffles are you using?

@tz1592 none right now but the ones I've looked at don't sound any better

@@RobertChambers-m8k With no baffles, it's obnoxiously loud and you lose power. The louvered baffles create some of that back pressure for power and decent sound...especially over the stock pipes. You should be able to sell them on eBay. Best wishes.

@@tz1592 mine are not loud at all, cam barley hear them going down the road. They're not much different than the factory pipes

I have a video of them inside my closed shop if there is a way to send it to you

I know, but the sewing machine sound the stock pipes had was meh. There will be more upgrades soon.....stay tuned.

We are still breaking in the new Road Sofa. After 1.5 to 2 hours on the bike, we both want to get off to take a break. My wife prefers our 15 Ultra Limited because of how the backrest wraps around her. But she also prefers the chopped tour pak as opposed to the sissy bar on the new CVO. Hope that helps.

Thank you!! I hope you get it. My 15 Ultra Limited has a SE 110, but this 121vvt is FAST!!!

Thank you!! I already have 1500 miles on it!! Love the power upgrade.

It is not extended reach, I'm 6 feet tall. I'm still breaking the Road Sofa in. Rode Sunday for 5 hours. The first 1.5 to 2 hours are no problem. Seat feels great. Then you need a break for sure. We had lunch for an hour at the Harley Museum. Rode again for another 1.5 hours, took another break and did it again. You get soar faster after the first part of your ride. Hope that explains it well enough. I've been told the more you break it in, the longer you will be able to travel. 🤞

Thank you!!

Good morning and thanks!! Both seats are Saddlemen Road Sofa's. As much as I love my new CVO, I still love my 2015 Ultra Limited just as much. the Road Sofa's are comfortable. Need to break them in, but they are much more comfortable than the stock seats. Safe travels!!

Agreed

The chopped tour-pak ws $1,999. I also have a 2015 Ultra Limited with a king-pak, so I wanted a different look. I REALLY like the chopped tour-pak look on this CVO. Easy to pop off if the wife isn't riding with me.

@@tz1592where did you get the “chopped”? I have the same bike. Is this a call to Harley?

Thank you.

Thank you!!

Hi, thanks for the comment. I thought the exact same thing you did, remove the one nut and they should slide in, but they don't!! The turbine tips are sharp, but must be removed to insert the louvered baffle. I wonder if other baffles would work without taking the tip off? John over at Cycle Fanatix recently made a video with these mufflers and had to remove the tips for all 3 baffles he tried. On my Ultra Limited, I have Vance and Hines Destroyer pipes and the baffles slide in and out easily. Safe travels and thanks for watching.

Thanks!

@@tz1592 thanks!

Love the Whiskey Fire color this year, congrats on your new bike. I'll check it out on the custom dynamics web site. Thanks.

Well…. If you remove and replace the factory headers with the cat you absolutely need them. M8’s need the back pressure to perform well.

I appreciate that. This winter, I added the Factory 47 bars, Empire heated grips and mirrors, Hogworkz inner fairing, and the Saddlemen Road Sofa seat. I've put so much into it, I can't let it go even though I have been asked to sell it. What I love the most about the new CVO is the power. That 121 vvt has some power. The tech, redesign and my 1st Road Glide is also cool too. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thanks, Congrats to you too! Love the legendary orange.

No worries friend, thanks for replying. I appreciate your opinion. Did you see the legendary orange on the street or road glide? Personally, I think it looks better on the road glide. For me, I was ready to make another purchase. I bought my 2015 Ultra Limited 9 years ago and wanted all the new 2024 upgrades; styling, infortainment, 121 vvt, and I wanted to try the shark nose fairing. I do like the classic Harley orange and black, but the rear of the bike is too plain. All ORANGE and nothing else? That's my disappointment as a buyer.

My dealer told me they don't have tuners yet for a full exhaust from a different brand if that makes sense. Hoping they will at some point soon.

Thanks so much. I wanted to pull the trigger last year after riding the CVO's at the 125th, & I thought the Whiskey Neat and Silver were nice, but they didn't move me to pull the trigger. This year, the Copperhead is also nice, but the Legendary Orange was right up my ally. I've also never owned a Road Glide before, so I made the move. Hope you do too! Thanks for watching

I'm sure there's a break in period for Saddlemen seats that can last up to 1,000 miles or longer for some. I've only had the seat for 150 miles and for me, it's much more comfortable than the stock seat right of out the box because of the gel insert. My hope is the more I ride it, the more comfortable it will get. I could only last about 45 minutes to an hour on the OG seat before I had to take a break and get off the bike.

Thank you!

Thank you. I just put a ceramic coat on the paint. It's so clean and glossy, I don't want to take it out of the garage!!!

1st congrats on ordering your new CVO. I'm biased when I say this, but the legendary orange is sharp! I make these videos in 4K HDR so people can see how nice it looks. You will love your new bike! There's a few glitchy headaches with the infotainment, but hopefully continued software updates will fix those. I made another video on the Saddlemen seat if you want to see it. It's not long but I will say the Saddlemen seat for me is much more comfortable. Check with Saddlemen to be sure, but the standard seat will be better than the extended reach seat; the extended reach seats are made for tall people. I liked the louvered baffles best. M8's need some back pressure for sure, so no baffles will result in a loss of power. Ride safe!!!!

@@tz1592 Nice thanks for the info. Def heard about the bugs in the skyline OS but that can be fixed over time so I am not too worried. I will def check out your video on the seat!

Thanks!!!!

Thanks! My dealer told me if you're just doing the slip ons, no calibration is needed. If you do a Screaming Eagle Air Cleaner, you do need it tuned, but get this, Harley hasn't come out with one yet. Not sure about aftermarket. For now, I just put the Khrome Werks slip-ons with the louvered baffles. They have a decent sound and I didn't notice any loss of power.

Took it for another ride today. They sound good.

Interesting.

The louvered baffles provide a noticeable difference in bottom-end torque . I ran a KW headpipe without baffles (while I waited for them to come in) for a couple rides and it felt neutered. Huge difference once I installed the baffles. Once I got a cam installed the tuner ran the exhaust without the baffles to show me how much torque it lost, close to 10 ft/lbs. Granted, it did sound much better at idle without the baffles. I would rather have the power though. It's insanely loud out on the road after the cam, even with the baffles.

Like Vader said you definitely don’t want to take the baffles out. This has been proven many times on the dyno. Unless all you want is sound keep the baffles.🤘🏻nice ride!

Yea you wanna lose a lot of torque go right ahead. Keep the log truck sound, I’ll take the performance..

Yes, Tab with zombies are serious!!

You bet. Factory 47, assault-handlebar-10-chrome. Nice to have the hands a little higher.

Sorry you had that experience. My Saddlemen seats have been very comfortable. I have another one on my Ultra Limited. I hope you have something comfortable now.

Of course! I don't know if the video does it justice. The mufflers really do help as you know. Which color did you choose for your CVO?

Black 2 in 1 but now they are back order 5-8 weeks,the other option the Bassani 2/1 tip black and silver are available 🤔

Thanks Tom! Love your KZbin channel!!!
