What are these? New CVO's?

The Road Glide fairing looks photo shopped or altered. The rest of the bike looks proportional. Definitely photographed in a factory environment.

That definitely looks like YVO, having spent 7 years working there, i'd recognize it

Good god I hope that’s not a factory produced bike. Yuck .

I read another article with the same photos. Seems like this may very well be a glimpse into the future. I like the bump in engine size and inverted forks. Maybe they're working on improved rear suspension to go along with the improved front? Can't say I'm enthused with the new fairing design design though......

showed my wife these pics and her 2 comments, 'that's gotta be fake', and 'it looks like a tumor'.... lol. guess she isn't a fan either.

I’m not liking it now, but I didn’t like the fairing on the Low Rider ST when I first saw it either and now I kinda want one.

Funny how we adapt to change eh? I took one out for a spin a couple weeks ago. Fun to ride but the foot pegs were definitely not where I expected them to be.

The handlebars aren't in their final position, they fold rhem down for shipping.

They would never put handle bars like that from the factory and they are never folded down in that fashion from the factory. How many bikes have you uncrated off the truck?!

In all seriousness, I think this is for real!

The CVO Screamin' Eagle "Manatee" is coming like it or not...

I'd like to see from the riders view, like what the inside of the fairing looks like. Looks like an exposed clamp on the bars, which look super odd. Dressed out the the new Adversary collection. Cam chest cover looks different as well. And obviously the new air box. Where did this picture com from?

On another Harley forum.

I tried to find it, but you are correct about the air filter box. It actually looks very similar to the one that the MoCo is running on the Wymans brothers race bikes this year.

What's the old saying... "Race on Sunday, Sell on Monday."

Interesting points. On another note: The adjustable air deflector on the fairing.
Notable because some of us already put those on. However, it looks like the fairing is curved to accomodate a (perhaps) more functional design and implementation of it.

Considering my (debateable) viewpoint that HD "Takes away more than it delivers" , it makes me believe this won't be a production bike. But hey, it's all a guess until it ain't.

Also looks like adjustable Willy wings on the side of the fairing. Man from the three pictures I've seen here a lot of small changes.

Oops.

Can confirm. ☹

I wonder what changes they made to the inner fairing now that it appears the top tree and riser are exposed. If the riser was the typical pot metal gray color, I'd think they were still gonna put the cluster over it, but the riser is gloss black, which tells me it is meant to be seen.

This just released, Spy Shot of the New CVO Touring Model.

Hindsight: It might look better in person after a couple puff, puff pass hits.

Pretty boring tank emblem for a CVO.

Windshield mounts are interesting though.....

Makes me wonder if they fixed the glare issue on the radio

Almost makes me think it might be electric. The Road Glide fairing is kind bulky looking which would make sense cause there's no way it would fit with the current offerings
