2009 Harley Davidson FLTRSE CVO Road
Glide

FLTRSE CVO Road Glide
A sleek, lean muscle machine, the 2009 CVO Road
Glide is a bagger loaded with style and attitude.
From its lowered front fender and skirted saddlebags
to its vivid paint and massive powertrain, the CVO
team showed little restraint when executing the CVO
Road Glide. Start with the unbridled power of the
Screamin’ Eagle Twin Cam 110 engine, 1800cc
of pure American V-Twin muscle and the largest engine
offered by Harley-Davidson. Available only on CVO
models, the Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection
(ESPFI) Twin Cam 110 produces huge torque at 4000
rpm and features electronic throttle control and a
heavy-duty, self-adjusting clutch with hydraulic actuation.
It’s finished in black powdercoat with chrome
covers, and features new “110 Screamin’
Eagle” badges on the air cleaner cover insert.
A custom oil cooler has a chrome cover with the CVO
logo. The CVO Road Glide rolls on the same all-new
chassis that underpins all 2009 Harley-Davidson Touring
models, based on a redesigned frame and swingarm for
enhanced manoeuverability. The new Touring chassis
also incorporates a new motor-mount system that reduces
engine shake at idle, a new 2-1-2 exhaust system with
a one-piece front exhaust shield, and a new 180 mm
Dunlop Multi-Tread rear tyre. Over this foundation
CVO layers chrome and custom components.
To achieve a lower profile, composite skirts are
added to the saddlebag bottoms and wrap over the exhaust
pipe outlets. Filler strips between the saddlebag
and rear fender incorporate LED stop-tail-turn lights
that replace the traditional fender-mounted lights
and signals. To balance the bike visually front-to-rear,
the front fender has been lowered with a new mounting
bracket, and the fender covers a new 18-inch-diameter
front wheel. The effect is to place the front fender
skirt as low as is practically possible for street
use.
The CVO Road Glide rolls on 18-inch Blade chrome
forged aluminium wheels front and rear. The frame-mounted,
aerodynamic fairing is the most distinctive design
element of the Road Glide, and it gets a full custom
treatment from CVO. The inner fairing panel is colour-matched
and carries gauges with spun-aluminium faces. The
gauges are back-lit. The headlight area is revised
with new trim that replaces the clear headlight cover
used on the regular-production Road Glide. New headlight
lenses are hardened.
The fairing is topped with a black, low-profile wind
deflector and trim assembly. Rider comfort begins
with a new low-profile, two-up seat with Buffalo inserts
and a matching passenger backrest. The new Touring
exhaust system creates more space between the passenger
and the exhaust pipe, producing less heat. The new
frame increases passenger leg room behind the calves.
Brembo brakes with ABS are standard equipment, as
is cruise control, two-speaker AM/FM/WB/CD/MP3 Advanced
Audio System by Harman-Kardon®, and air-adjustable
rear suspension. A chrome tank console has a push-button
fuel door and a new insert with the CVO logo. The
hand and foot controls are from the Rumble collection,
with matching mirrors, saddlebag latches and passenger
footpegs. Handlebars are internally wired for a clean
look.
The CVO Road Glide has a chromed front end, chrome
billet rear brake and shift levers, chrome switch
housings and master cylinders, and enough other chromed
parts to keep this bike sparkling night and day.
The 2009 CVO Road glide is available in three colour
combinations, all with Ghost Feather graphics: Yellow
Pearl & Charcoal Slate, Stardust Silver &
Titanium Dust, and Electric Orange & Vivid Black.
