The 1,000 mile Review of my 2023 Harley-Davidson Road Glide CVO - “Storm”

[@RegularJoeTravels]

Good info. Makes me want a CVO!

[@ChrisGlides]

It makes me wonder if all the 2024 models will be of like design. This CVO however is $10k cheaper than the 23 CVO Road Glide Limited and paying $41,900 for me was more than what I paid for Grady as a 21 Road Glide Limited.

I was worried when you did first couple videos because I rode that bike in Milwaukee and it was amazing. Those were also broke in. Now you see what I experienced. Im glad your getting to like it now

[@ChrisGlides]

Yes Sir Jeff. It’s way different fresh out the box Vs. Broken in. It’s awoken now. Like Frankenstein it’s alive.

[@ldubb9621]

That joint is nice, living through you, man!

[@ChrisGlides]

Thank you. I appreciate it. Gods blessings and promises. All credit to God and my faith in him.

[@Jedi_Obi-Wan]

Thanks for the 1k review. Purchased my 2023 Street Glide CVO today. 👍🏽

[@ChrisGlides]

I know your enjoying that new toy .but l do miss my Judy. Say safe out there.

[@ChrisGlides]

Thank you. I appreciate it. I am trying to put together a Judy reunion and go visit and ride with Judy. I do wish I still had here and I will get another Road Glide 3 one day.

Nice review. I love mine also. I did the Khrome Werks slip ons, added a tour pak. I'll add bars and a seat and that's it. Enjoy the ride

[@ChrisGlides]

Thank you. Excellent. How do you like the exhaust? There weren’t many choices unless we change full system to black or chrome. But for the only color option what’s your review on the sound difference for just slip-on’s? Is it a difference that is work the $949?

[@jimwonderboy3390]

Had my CVO 2023 Road Glide for 3 weeks now. It's been at the dealership for half that time. First the battery tender wouldn't work. It kept blowing the 30amp fuse. Also, the bags wouldn't lock. After I had it a week, the music stopped playing and a warning would come on that the bike had been tipped. They said there was a short in the wiring harness and they replaced the Rockford Fosgate amp. They delivered the bike back to me and I jumped on it to go through the Everglades. No sound out of the left speaker in the fairing and no bluetooth connectivity. It's going back to the dealer tomorrow. I also hear a whining from the belt, primary or tranny. Can't really tell what side it's coming from. I'll definitely have them check all recalls. I also notice what I call transmission slop. When letting off on the throttle, it definitely bumps. Then when you give throttle, it bumps again. Argh... I've had a lot of motorcycles and a bunch of Harleys. Never had these types of problems. Thanks for the awesome channel.

[@ChrisGlides]

I have had many or all of those issues and I was pissed. The good thing was that the warranty covered everything and its running perfectly now. The best is yet to come.

[@jimwonderboy3390]

It's still at the dealer... I've owned it for a month now and only had the bike in my possession for a week. Yikes.

[@harryhowell5644]

Always fun to break in a new bike. Congratulations man.😮

[@ChrisGlides]

You got that right! Thank you so much. I appreciate it. I enjoy reviewing and sharing the information good or bad.

Great review, That’s a nice cvo and love the way it looks

[@ChrisGlides]

I appreciate it. I can’t wait to ride with you. We will catch up one day.

[@kellybgliding]

@@ChrisGlides man hopefully next year bro or if not before . We definitely going to get a ride in somewhere 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Great review and info! 🤘

Sweet!

[@ChrisGlides]

Thank you.

[@greggcarlson9823]

Time to upgrade to a Goldwing !

[@ChrisGlides]

Hey. Thanks for watching. I just had the 2023 Goldwing with DCT and Airbag. My reviews are on this channel. I will get another when they produce a new series with upgrades and touch screen.

[@markmcintosh7095]

Nice review

[@ChrisGlides]

I appreciate it. Thank you. I had more to say once I got going but I will save it.

[@darkstars2050]

Great Video, it looks like the seat is resting on the saddle bag bar. Is that an issue?

[@ChrisGlides]

Hi. Thank you for reaching out. Not at all. The bar is made flat on the portion that bolts onto the frame under the seat so that’s how they all are made for every model in the same location. Please keep in contact.

[@Setzerpendence]

hey bud, i'm sitting about 1700ish miles myself and noticed some weird noise. at first i thought it sounded like the rear brakes weren't fully disengaging but i saw another guys video about something similar and his noise was coming from the belt (either too tight or too loose, don't remember), just curious if you have heard anything like that?

[@ChrisGlides]

Hi. Yes. I hear the same noise and I saw the same video last night. It’s a shame. I am taking mine to service and dropping it off for that and for the nation wide recall.

[@Setzerpendence]

@@ChrisGlides just got word that my belt was too tight from my previous 1k service, .5 hour of labor so it wasn't too bad, im curious to know if the same was true for yours

[@ChrisGlides]

@@Setzerpendence They will pick up Tuesday and will inspect during recall work. Currently my sound will not play through speakera

[@cliveleslie7004]

How is the bike compared to your Honda goldwing.

[@ChrisGlides]

It’s something different and new. The Goldwings are a dime a dozen. Not timeless and something you can easy pick up anytime. The new CVO RG is something groundbreaking. It’s unique and first in its class of change for new school H-D brings new changes and making previous models into historic and vintage category

[@OsageEnergy]

Nice ride. Did you put on a coil pack cover? Where did you get it? Thanks.

[@ChrisGlides]

Thank you. I appreciate it. The could pack cover is from the H-D online store. H-D Coil Cover part#57300289 $73.95

[@charleslewis9853]

Are you happier about letting go honda? 😅

[@ChrisGlides]

Actually now I certainly am. Reason being is that for that series of Goldwing there was nothing new about it. Same for past few years and they need a touch screen. I felt that with the Goldwing that they are like in a woman’s analogy anyone can afford Michael Kor’s and they are functional. However, the same exact bag if it’s Gucci or Birkin you will pay more for the name. H-D is American Icon. Think about it this way. In Asia everyone would love to have a Harley-Davidson or Honda Goldwing and in Any other country outside the USA based on its iconic image and so when you are on an HD and you are into the HD community and every popular bike on the Road is a H-D then why be out the circle. Every novice or non biker knows the name Harley-Davidson and if they don’t know what kind of bike you are on then they will say, what is that? Is that a Harley. So there it is. hD for now.

[@B1boi]

The looks of it I can’ t get to enjoy….it’s a ugly duckling. The engine is all we needed, nothing else !

[@ChrisGlides]

Thank you. I Appreciate it. What bike do you recommend? Each bike I get on this channel is for review of whatever is trending and popular at the time. I have reviewed or had several bikes on here or I’ve fully upstaged and rode in the past. Harley-Davidson is the American Icon bike. This is a historic change of something new and looks are never initially appealing. People don’t buy Gucci, Louis Vuitton, or Birkin, for the looks or price; they buy it for the brand name. Just like American brands Like Levi’s. Certainly there are cheaper brands that serve the same purpose but each consumer can pay less for the same or they can go all out and send big on what they work hard for. H-D is world recognized based on its branded design and look weather you like it or not Billions can identify a Harley-Davison blindfolded. If you aren’t on a Harley a persons first guess will be that you are either on a Harley or you aren’t. People will always say oh it’s not a Harley but you will never hear someone say, “oh it’s not a Suzuki, BMW, Indian, Honda, Yamaha, etc.”

[@B1boi]

@@ChrisGlides you are correct! My most current bike is the 2023 RGS. The new design of fairing and bags I can’t vibe with. I’m trying to like since the photo leaks and it’s not working out to well in my eyes. No one complained about the current design imo. The power plant and suspension was well over due.

[@ChrisGlides]

@@B1boi after 120 years we gotta evolve into something. This will permit older bike to become retro or classic. Without change we have too much of the same.
