I didn't know what to expect when I got an email about attending the 2023 Harley-Davidson CVO press intro for RideApart. Strangely enough, although I've been an avid motorcyclist my entire life—primarily on dirt—I had never ridden a Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
In many ways, I never understood the appeal of riding a big bike over long distances. But the Harley-Davidson CVOs are not just any motorcycle. After a quick review of the recent press release on the 2023 CVO models, my reply was an emphatic YES! So, I boarded a plane to Milwaukee to throw a leg over one of these legendary motorcycles.
