2012 Harley-Davidson FLHTCUSE7 CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide
2012 Harley-Davidson FLHTCUSE7 CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide Review
Top of the line Grand American Touring as only Harley-Davidson® does it. From power to premium features—when you want it all, this bike can bring it.
The CVO™ Ultra Classic® Electra Glide® takes luxury to new heights with a suspended, dual-control heated seat, adjustable passenger backrest with lumbar support; plush lined Tour- Pak® luggage, saddlebags and more.
The CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide is built on the innovative Harley-Davidson Touring chassis, based on a single-spar, rigid backbone frame and swingarm developed to withstand the demands of long-haul touring riders.
2012 CVO™ Ultra Classic® Electra Glide®: This ultimate long-haul touring motorcycle is ready to take on the most-challenging touring assignments with style. New features for 2012 start with BOOM!™ Audio High Performance BOOM! Bagger™ Speakers plus new BOOM!™ Audio Bass Booster Ports in the Tour-Pak bottom liner. These are all powered by an amplifier tuned to match the dynamics of the speakers and the motorcycle environment. An 8GB Apple iPod nano and iPod interface completes the audio package. The CVO Ultra rolls on new Mirror Chrome Chisel Custom wheels with matching brake rotors, and the King Tour-Pak features new chrome LED brake/tail lamps. The suspended, dual-control heated, two-up seat and adjustable passenger backrest have an H-D Bar & Shield monogram and pebbled pattern texture. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC), cruise control, and ABS are standard equipment. Three new color combinations are available.
EXCLUSIVE CVO™ ENHANCEMENTS
All the quality. All the legacy of the Harley-Davidson® name. Plus custom
touches and performance that distinguish you from every other bike on the
road. Sure there's a little vanity. Premium custom paint. Big, tricked-out
wheels. The perfect storm of engineering and style you'll only find on a custom
machine. And you'll spoil yourself with the accessories—from comfort
to electronics to chrome. But the real signature of a Harley-Davidson®
Custom Vehicle Operations™ motorcycle is the explosive power and sleek
detailing of the huge Screamin' Eagle® engine. It's custom-built, not
just for anyone, but for true connoisseurs of the road.
These injection-molded hard bags have room for 2.26 cu. ft. volume of long-haul
luxuries and a perfect surface for showing off some premium paint. Even better,
these saddlebags open from the top, so your gear won't end up spilled all
over the highway. They keep your fancy unmentionables dry, and the chrome
latches won't corrode in bad weather. And when you're off the road, one common
key starts the bike and gives you access to your saddlebags, keeping your
pockets as uncluttered as your bike's refined design.
The premium Tour-Pak® adds to the luxury look and gives you even more
space to pack stuff for the road. And we add another layer to the mix with
exclusive Custom Vehicle Operations™ saddlebag and Tour-Pak® carry-out
liners. Dual-direction zippers for more access. Side pockets for your quick-reach
items like cell phones, keys and wallet. Rubber bottoms that keep the insides
dry and clean, and d-rings let you clip on attachments and shoulder straps
for easy transport.
The premium custom look goes the distance on the CVO™ Ultra Classic®
Electra Glide® model with the chrome dual exhaust. Featuring 4-inch touring
mufflers, chrome billet end caps with black spears and chrome touring exhaust
shields. Relish in the rumble and performance of these high-end pipes.
Harley-Davidson® fuel tanks are finished by hand—that's what makes
them stand out from the competition. Their seamless design and unmatched style
are unique among all motorcycles on the road. The tanks are one of the first
and last things people notice when they lay their eyes on a Harley-Davidson®
motorcycle—so we make it worth their time. And a classically styled,
bold six-gallon fuel tank doesn't just give you a bigger canvas for premium
or custom paint; it holds six gallons of go so you can eat up a lot more road
between pit stops.
The back end of the CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide model demonstrates once
again the premium style and innovative engineering you'll find with the Custom
Vehicle Operations at Harley-Davidson. The taillight features an integrated
chrome wraparound brake light for a clean look. And with its wraparound coverage,
you get additional style, increased visual footprint at night and long-lasting
LEDs that just keep burning on.
Aggressive yet balanced, every element of the CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide
model is painstakingly designed to deliver the most luxurious riding experience—and
that includes the chrome Chisel wheels with matching open rotors. With a 17-inch
front wheel and a 16-inch in back, this Ultra boasts smooth, nimble handling
no matter where your journey takes you.
Individually crafted and hand finished, high-impact paint and graphics come
standard on all Harley-Davidson® Custom Vehicle Operations™ motorcycles.
The CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide's exclusive color schemes are adorned
with concentrated glass and mirrors for a light-catching candy appearance,
while the Big City Lights graphic makes for a dramatic highlight. Skimping?
The word's simply not in our vocabulary.
The knowledge of what makes an engine truly move a rider runs deep at The
Motor Company, and it was put to good use when we created the Screamin' Eagle®
Twin Cam 110™ engine. We sweated bullets perfecting every cubic inch,
pushing design and technology forward.
And we did it all without compromising one bit of Harley-Davidson's unique
styling. Evolved, yet carrying on the legacy of the Flathead, Knucklehead,
Panhead, Shovelhead, Evolution® and Twin Cam 88® engines that came
before. The performance and durability are a direct result of the untold miles
logged on the V-Twin since 1909, and the proud heritage that comes from a
century's worth of commitment to life on two wheels.
Fire up the Twin Cam 110™ engine and feel the low-end torque unleashed.
The colossal 110 cubic inches provide seemingly endless torque with adrenaline-pumping
pull through all six gears. Boasting the largest-displacement V-Twin engine
by Harley-Davidson, the Twin Cam 110™ produces 118 ft. lbs. of torque
at 3750 rpm. Six speeds. A strong driveline and strong internal parts. Low
routine maintenance. And a low cruising rpm couldn't feel better.
Feast your eyes on the Twin Cam 110™ engine and there's no mistaking
its roots. This is authentic Harley-Davidson® style through and through
with an attention to detail you won't find from any other motorcycle company.
Granite heads and cylinders feature machined cooling fin tips and are highlighted
by chrome rocker covers. Exclusive to Custom Vehicle Operations™, the
granite powertrain and 110 badging are unapologetically distinguished. It's
a jewel machined out of metal. Pure. Dripping with power.
From the classic edge of the cooling fins to the clean lines of cases and
covers—the Twin Cam 110™ engine makes an ironclad statement to holding
on to what's right and staying true to what satisfies the rider.
You want a ride that rumbles—not begs for mercy—when you lean on
it a little. The Six-Speed Cruise Drive® transmission provides smooth,
quiet shifting and reduces engine speed on the highway, so you get a better
match between engine turnover and road speed. And the Isolated Drive System
makes acceleration flow in a smooth, steady stream from your wrist right down
to the pavement. It's a rare ride when a bike responds like this, and a low
growl goes a long way when you're opening up the road ahead.
Performance gets the custom treatment on Custom Vehicle Operations™
motorcycles. The addition of a high-performance clutch with hydraulic actuation
helps make sure you're getting a smooth, confident feel with just the right
amount of effort and a hands-off reliability that's only fitting. And you'll
love the confidence and control it lends when harnessing those 110 cubic inches
of Screamin' Eagle® power.
Everything about the Screamin' Eagle® Twin Cam 110™ Engine is a
testament to the premium styling and performance you get with a limited Custom
Vehicle Operations™ motorcycle. Right smack between the engine jugs rests
the high-flow 'ventilator' intake with high-flow filter element, back plate,
diamond-cut, charcoal Screamin' Eagle badge and protective rain sock. Your
bike will breathe easy while the increased air flow boosts the raw power.
Unique and exclusive. That is what Custom Vehicle Operations is all about.
When it comes to the CVO™ Ultra Classic® Electra Glide® model
with ABS, 'stopping power' has a double meaning. The components of our ABS
are tastefully hidden within the wheel hub, so you'll still turn heads with
a clean, streamlined design. More importantly, though, you get certainty in
the saddle knowing your bike's going to behave when you need it.
Harley-Davidson® touring means maximum comfort in all conditions and
the capacity to add whatever enhances and personalizes your ride. The high
output charging system provides an electrical capacity robust enough for your
add-ons: heated vests, lights to showcase the engine, you name it. So if you're
hell-bent on two-wheeling it, we make sure you've got the juice to do it your
way.
Whether you need a quick charge for your cell phone or dinner from a hotplate
on a lonely stretch of road, knowing you've got 15 amps of power to get through
the day or night goes a long way. And don't worry about pesky rain spoiling
your power supply—the spring-loaded cap keeps the receptor dry and free
of road muck.
If you're ready to take Touring to the next level, the cruise control feature
will help you settle in for the long haul. Get the comfort of the cruise without
the cables cluttering up your handlebar. Our electronic throttle control technology
makes it possible to have the best of both worlds.
Harley-Davidson leverages the latest in technology without compromising style
and function. That means we hide electronics. The whole wiring harness is
skillfully routed behind the jewels of the bike—the tank, engine and
all the other eye-popping features you want to see. It's just another way
The Motor Company goes the extra mile to give its bikes that premium, top-of-the-line
fit and finish.
Hand controls on a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle are incredibly intuitive.
The turn signals are self-canceling and, based on the speed and angle of the
motorcycle, they know how long to stay on. Engaging the controls quickly becomes
second nature so you can focus less on turning off your signal and more on
basking in the freedom of the ride.
Naturally, the king of the road gets some royal extras. When it comes to
hearing your tunes or just keeping your own chatter free and easy, the premium
Harman Kardon audio system has it all: 4 speakers (2 up front and 2 in back)
with an amplifier that distributes 40 watts per channel, an AM/FM receiver,
CD and MP3 player—even an intercom and CB. It's loud, it's proud and
yeah, it might as well go to 11. Plus, new for 2012, we've improved the already
awesome sound by upgrading to BOOM! Audio High-Performance BOOM! Bagger speakers
with customized equalization for BOOM! audio, and added BOOM! Audio Bass Booster
Tour-Pak Ports to give these blasters the room to move booming deep bass.
Sure, that's a lot of boom, but we figure you can handle it.
Just having the juice to let loose isn't enough to call this system custom.
It's your tunes that tell the story of your life on two wheels. With an iPod®
dock in the right-hand saddlebag, a module integrated into the radio, and
the intuitive controls right at your fingertips, the music is now yours, and
that story is yours to write. We'll even throw in an exclusively-designed
8GB iPod® nano.
You may know where you're headed, but this little dandy helps you get more
out of every mile. The quick-mount cradle makes it easy to mount and detach
and it plays nice with the bike's tight lines. Designed by bikers for bikers,
it's preloaded with City Navigator® NT street maps and markers for H-D®
dealers, motels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and anything else you might need
while out on the road.
The factory installed next-generation security system with siren features
a hands-free fob that automatically arms and disarms the vehicle electronic
security functions as you approach and walk away from the bike. Stick the
fob on your ignition key ring and let it do all the work. For additional peace
of mind, the automatic bike lock features a key fob that locks the ignition,
Tour-Pak and saddlebags so you won't have to worry about leaving your valuables
tucked away on your ride. It's this attention to detail and rider security
that make Harley-Davidson® motorcycles unique.
A true Touring bike has to be tough enough to take on thousands of miles
for years to come. Our Touring chassis is designed to do just that. Based
on a single-spar, rigid backbone frame and swingarm, it easily handles the
hum of that big Screamin' Eagle® engine, and it's built to last. Perfect
for riders that always take the scenic route.
Confidence. Control. High-performance dual disc Brembo® brakes offer
consistent stopping power. The 4-piston front and rear calipers with dual
front rotor brake system is state of the art and top of the line. It's just
another way The Motor Company puts a high level of detail into their bikes
to give you peace of mind throughout your journey.
Harley-Davidson® motorcycles are different than any other bike out on
the road. There's a balance to them. The steering, the maneuverability—It's
all in concert. And each Harley-Davidson® model is tuned differently to
create a unique riding experience for each individual no matter which bike
they swing their leg over. Let's face it, we didn't get to where we are by
being like everyone else.
With air-adjustable suspension that comes standard, you can easily adjust
your ride to accommodate heavier or lighter payloads, unexpected road conditions
or simply set it for how you like to roll. The lighter the load, the softer
you can go by decreasing the air pressure a bit, or increase it for a more
rigid ride. It's all about rider and passenger comfort and setting your bike
to fit your taste—the easy way.
When the chill gets at you, just having a little heat would be nice enough.
But this is a Harley-Davidson® Custom Vehicle Operations™ motorcycle
and we're all about the details. Our heated handgrips have six settings, so
you can easily adjust on the fly for the heat you need with the versatility
and control you come to depend on.
Don't be a prisoner to the elements outside—take control of your ride
with the color-matched fairing lowers on the CVO™ Ultra Classic®
Electra Glide® model. Slide them open for a cooler ride or leave them
fixed to fight the wind tooth and nail. Use the glove boxes to empty your
pockets, ditch your phone, and ride free. When it comes to Touring, Harley-Davidson®
Custom Vehicle Operations™ is all about optimal comfort every time you
hunt down a horizon.
Your boots were made for riding, in any way you see fit. Our full-length
rider footboards boast a tried and true design that's stood the test of time.
Rubber vibration isolation offers a comfortable ride every time. And heel
and toe shifting makes getting through the gears quick and easy. Plus, height
adjustable passenger boards add another level of comfort for your riding partner.
Welcome to the crossroads of pure Harley-Davidson style and smart engineering.
The 2-1-2 exhaust helps direct heat away from the rider and passenger, while
providing ample performance, and signature Harley-Davidson rumble, and big
style.
Our motorcycles are built to be ridden. A lot. So that means that rider comfort
is top of mind. Always. With the Engine Idle Temperature Management Strategy
(EITMS) feature, the motorcycle automatically cuts fuel and fire from the
rear cylinder when idling, which helps reduce engine heat felt by rider and
passenger. Best part, you can easily turn this feature on or off yourself
whenever the bike is stopped.
Need help convincing someone to let you buy your CVO dream bike? Or just
to come touring with you? This custom all-leather seat’s for them. Its
suspended, dual control design offers the ultimate in touring luxury for rider
and passenger, mile after mile. It sits low and it's trimmed in at the thighs
for ultra-comfortable long-hauling. Its suspension feature acts as a secondary
shock absorber. The embroidered H-D Bar & Shield passenger backrest is
plush and cozy, with adjustable lumbar support. With all that plus in-seat
heating, even the most finicky hangers-on will be happy to keep on going.

2012 Harley-Davidson FLHTCUSE7 CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide - Press Release 1

CVO motorcycles are customized using premium accessories and paint treatments combined with numerous items from the Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Accessories catalog. The CVO program is often used to introduce new custom components and techniques before they are offered as individual accessories. Harley-Davidson CVO motorcycles are backed by a two-year, unlimited mileage warranty.
Harley-Davidson is offering an all-new CVO model for 2012:
2012 CVO Road Glide Custom: This hot-rod bagger combines a distinctive shark-nose,
frame-mounted fairing with a road-hugging, slammed profile for a look that's
sure to turn heads. A high-output, amplified Harman/Kardon Advanced Audio
radio features CD/AM/FM/WB and delivers 100 watts per channel to five-by-seven-inch
fairing-mount speakers and two-inch dash-mount tweeters. An included 8GB Apple
iPod nano connects via an interface and holder located in the right-side saddlebag.
Exclusive custom features include a smoked Wind Splitter windshield; a two-piece
custom seat with removable pillion and color-coordinated stitching and cover;
and a color-matched, low-profile fuel tank console with illuminated CVO graphic
insert. A 19-inch Contrast Chrome Agitator Custom front wheel leads this beauty
down the road.
Three CVO models return for 2012 with new paint schemes and features:
2012 CVO Street Glide: A high-performance bagger with a fork-mounted bat-wing
fairing, the CVO Street Glide has enhanced audio performance with a two-amp/eight-speaker
system that includes speakers in the fairing, fairing lowers, and now also
in the saddlebag lids. Also new is a low-profile solo touring seat with an
embossed insert pattern, detachable passenger pillion and backrest pad, and
Diamond Cut Charcoal engine cover inserts and instrument faces. Three new
color combinations are available.
2012 CVO Softail Convertible: Detachable compact fairing, saddlebags, passenger
pillion and backrest make it possible to transform the CVO Softail Convertible
from touring to cruising format in minutes. For 2012, a redesigned windshield
significantly reduces turbulence to the rider and integrates a Road Tech™
zumo 660 GPS Navigator with an MP3 player. Turn-by-turn voice commands play
over the two-speaker audio system. The detachable leather saddlebags match
the seat and passenger backrest in either distressed brown leather or black
leather with reptile inserts. A welded mini-ape handlebar adds a custom touch.
Electronic cruise control, keyless ignition and an Anti-lock Braking System
(ABS) provide touring functionality. Three new color combinations are available.
2012 CVO™ Ultra Classic® Electra Glide®: This ultimate long-haul
touring motorcycle is ready to take on the most-challenging touring assignments
with style. New features for 2012 start with BOOM!™ Audio High Performance
BOOM! Bagger™ Speakers plus new BOOM!™ Audio Bass Booster Ports
in the Tour-Pak bottom liner. These are all powered by an amplifier tuned
to match the dynamics of the speakers and the motorcycle environment. An 8GB
Apple iPod nano and iPod interface completes the audio package. The CVO Ultra
rolls on new Mirror Chrome Chisel Custom wheels with matching brake rotors,
and the King Tour-Pak features new chrome LED brake/tail lamps. The suspended,
dual-control heated, two-up seat and adjustable passenger backrest have an
H-D Bar & Shield monogram and pebbled pattern texture. Electronic Throttle
Control (ETC), cruise control, and ABS are standard equipment. Three new color
combinations are available.

MORE HARLEY-DAVIDSON MODELS WITH TWIN CAM 103™ POWER IN 2012
V-Rod® 10th Anniversary Edition and Dyna® Switchback Bagger Join the
Model Line
MILWAUKEE (July 20, 2011) – Harley-Davidson offers more Big Twin performance
for 2012 as its Twin Cam 103™ powertrain is standard equipment on Softail®
and Touring motorcycle models and most Dyna® motorcycle models. Harley-Davidson
will offer two new models for 2012. The V-Rod® 10th Anniversary Edition
celebrates a decade of power-cruiser performance, while the new Dyna®
Switchback is a convertible custom-touring motorcycle with detachable hard
saddlebags and windshield. In addition, the Night Rod Special has significant
updates for 2012 with refreshed bodywork and optimized rider ergonomics. Harley-Davidson
Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO)TM rolls out the gleaming new CVO Road Glide®
Custom, a limited-production, high-performance touring masterpiece.
Harley-Davidson believes every motorcycle it sells can be a custom of one. Harley-Davidson H-D1™ is a comprehensive offering of customization tools for the Harley-Davidson motorcycle owner. H-D1 tools include Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Accessories listings in print and on-line catalogs, Fit Shop and consultation services at Harley-Davidson dealerships, and factory customization and Bike Builder tools on www.harley-davidson.com. H-D1 offers almost unlimited opportunities to optimize fit, function, style and performance and turn a Harley into a motorcycle that is truly personalized to its owner.
Harley- Davidson heads into 2012 with 32 models, each born of experience that spans generations and a passion for riding that will never diminish.
Highlights of the 2012 Harley-Davidson line include:
The Twin Cam 103™ engine powers all 2012 Dyna®, Softail® and
Touring models with the exception of the Dyna Street Bob® and Dyna Super
Glide® Custom. This engine produces up to 100 ft lbs. peak torque, an
increase of approximately 6 percent over the Twin Cam 96 engine it replaces
as standard power for many of these models. The Twin Cam 103 is equipped with
automatic compression release. It features identifying badges on the derby
cover, timer cover and air cleaner trim ring.
A Security Package that pairs Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Smart Security
System with proximity-based, hands-free security fob is available for all
2012 V-Rod®, Dyna®, Softail®, Touring and CVO™ models. The
Security Package is standard equipment on CVO™ models and on the Road
Glide® Ultra, the Electra Glide® Ultra Limited, and the Road King®
Classic. The Security Package is a factory-installed option for all other
models.
The Night Rod® Special is updated with new tapered tail section, lighter-weight
wheels, an inverted front fork and improved ergonomics. Harley-Davidson celebrates
a decade of power cruising with the V-Rod® 10th Anniversary Edition motorcycle,
finished in Brilliant Silver Pearl bodywork that evokes the anodized aluminum
bodywork of the original V-Rod model that introduced the liquid-cooled Revolution
V-Twin engine in 2002. All V-Rod models will carry V-Rod 10th Anniversary
badges.
The new Dyna Switchback combines hard saddlebags and a windshield with the
eager handling and Twin Cam 103 performance of the Dyna chassis. It's a custom-touring
bike ready for a long weekend trip, until the detachable bags and windshield
are removed. Then in seconds the Switchback becomes a custom street cruiser
with a gleaming headlamp nacelle, five-spoke cast-aluminum wheels and a mini-ape
handlebar. This convertible concept makes the versatile Switchback two motorcycles
in one.
All Harley-Davidson Softail models get the performance boost of the Twin Cam
103 engine for 2012. The Fat Boy and Fat Boy Lo have a new reduced-reach handlebar
for more-comfortable ergonomics. A lower, narrower seat shape places the Fat
Boy rider in a new "in the bike" position. The Softail Deluxe and
Heritage Softail Classic will be available with a new optional "tubeless"
Chrome Aluminum Profile Laced wheel option for ease of tire replacement and
repair.
The Twin Cam 103 powertrain gives all Harley-Davidson Touring models assertive
power for passing. On Touring models, the Twin Cam 103 is equipped with an
oil cooler. All Touring models except the Ultra Limited will offer a new "tubeless"
Chrome Aluminum Profile Laced wheel option.
The Harley-Davidson Sportster® line appeals to a broad range of riders
with six 2012 models ranging from the race-inspired XR1200X™ to the accessible
SuperLow® to Dark Custom roadsters like the Iron 883™, Nightster®
and Forty-Eight®. The Sportster® 1200 Custom can be personalized for
fit, function and style with H-D1 factory customization, a process that allows
customers to use the Bike Builder tool on harley-davidson.com to build the
motorcycle from a selection of options that are installed as the bike is assembled
by Harley-Davidson Motor Company or are installed by a dealer after the motorcycle
is delivered. New 1200 Custom color options have been added to Bike Builder
for 2012.
The new CVO Road Glide Custom is one of four limited-production 2012 models
from Harley-Davidson Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO)TM, each turned out with
bold paint, gleaming chrome, and the most-powerful V-Twin engines offered
in production Harley-Davidson motorcycles. CVO Road Glide Custom is a hot-rod
bagger with a frame-mounted fairing topped with a smoked Wind Splitter windshield,
a high-output, amplified Harman/Kardon® Advanced Audio system, and a color-matched,
low-profile fuel tank console.
