A few things to mention, guys.
First, it's a CVO. That means it's optioned out, all the boxes are checked, etc. It's got CVO only paint, lights, etc. Being a CVO, it's also got the biggest HD motor (in this case, the 117ci'er). That's a heck of a lot bigger than what we have.
It's got a few (CVO, maybe) standard features the Spyders don't have like LEDs all around including the head and driving lights. It's got a CB radio (not that many would ever use that these days) and it's got native XM and navigation built in. HD/aftermarket/CVO floorboards, pedals, grips. CVO exhaust. It also comes w/probably $1000 worth of luggage and a full cover.
I think a non-CVO Tri Glide is around $35k. Still a ton of money but not a heck of a lot more than a new 2020 RTL. Once you added all LED lights (including head and driving) and some (ok, a LOT) of chrome, CB, XM (which you'd have to add aftermarket), heated Comfort seat, Can Ams $500 backrest, etc, you'd be in the non-CVO range or more.
With all that being said, I wouldn't own a HD. They're just not my style. $50k is way too much for any motorcycle when you can buy a fully loaded RTL for under $30k or a new 2018+ Gold Wing DCT (if you haven't tried one, you should...you'll never have as much fun on 2 wheels as you will on these, not to be confused w/the pre-2018 Wings) for the same.
I stopped by my local HD shop last weekend looking for some Plexus to clean my new 7Jurock windscreen (nice but needs a vent). (HD doesn't carry Plexus but does carry Novus. Close enough, I guess.) They were having their weekly Harley "meeting" (?) where everyone rode their Harleys in whilst wearing as much leather as they could. There were quite a few old school Harley riders who came over to admire my Spyder and ask questions about it. More than 1 said they had seriously considered buying one, either to add to their collection or as their only ryde. I think that's impressive as most old school HD riders are pretty hard core Harley and would never consider buying, riding or even looking at anything else (except maybe a Victory or Indian).
