2023 Harley Davidson CVO Road Glide DYNO TEST! | Sawicki Speed Exhaust 

Absolutely love my Sawicki 2-1 exhaust. I went from 109hp/128tq on my 2022 street glide 114" stage 2 zippers kit with 472 cam, 64mm throttle body, injectors and SE ventilator air cleaner. I put the Sawicki full length 2-1 on, retuned and now at 128hp/129tq. The exhaust is not the loudest at idle or steady speed, but soon as you rip on it everything changes.

I have had a few Harleys in my day. The way I see it from an 88ci,96ci, and now my current 2017 M8 107ci Harley is a Harley. As years go on the newer ones have a few new bells and whistles but you still have to maintain them the same. The hardest pulling HD I ever had to date was my 96ci with a gear cam kit and stage 1 with tab mufflers, and with religious oil changes I put over 87k on the bike with no motor work.

Awesome, love the sound and content, you just gained another sub!!! 😊

Thanks for the video great knowledge!

All American did the Screaming Eagle tuner Thunder Header Exhaust and intake and it made decent power

Cool. I seen 131 tq. With screaming eagle tune. Thunderheader exhaust

Great exhaust system for sure. Would love to have their system on my 2018 BreakOut 115th Anniversary edition with the 114CI engine.

Great content, definitely haven’t seen much on the new 121

I have the same Sawicki speed stainless short pipe tuned with a dynojet tuner on my 2023 Roadglide-ST. Awesome pipe.

Sounds good with the new pipe

So all the exhaust systems that fit a 22-23 current road glide will also fit this new cvo right?

the screamin eagle tuner/ tunes are available now for them yea its not gonna make the most power and get rid of the speed limiter but its a step in the right direction

Good stuff.

The mid length pipe looked the best IMO… the long pipe is the best of the full length pipes because the tip kind of flows with the way the new bags are cut… either way, keep the info coming. Interested what the SE tuner would do.

I Was Trying To Get A Thunderheader But No one Has Them And If They Do won’t Ship To Cali, I’ve Had them On all My Bikes Evo Twin Cam124Ci, FXR 113 S&S, Dyna 103 And Now M8 114 Got a Sawicki speed Long Pipe Installing It Tomorrow can’t Wait

With an almost 2000cc motor you would think it could pump out more. My 25 year old Honda Valkyrie Interstate gl1500 does 100hp rear wheel and 95 fpt rear wheel bone stock. I had a guy last summer on a new CVO street glide and I was asking him questions and drooling over his new bike and he was way more interested in looking at my bike than talking about his bike. I just kept going "why?, you have a CVO!!!!!!". He was really taken by it. I guess its because you dont see hardly any ever around (at least here) and the engine is fully visible. The flat 6 engine is a looker. I cant even afford a 10 year old CVO so thems the breaks. I have a 96 stage 4 sporty and that will have to be good enough. CVOs are gorgeous. I think pretty much as nice and you can get.

Did you do runs in both sport and road mode? If so, what was the difference?

Will any pipe from an M8 work or is the VVT in the way?

Bad AZ bike Bra , the headlight is funky on the RG

Watching a Mastertech Miller video ofcthe same bike, he removed the air cleaner and did a pull and gained 12 hp. He stated the air box had to go for one that could more air.

Ordered the full length sawacki with black billet cap. Got heavy breather and SE tuner, will be interested to see what makes.

We put on the Bassani Sly Fox, Scemin Eagle Tuner, and the Wedger cleaner received 116 HP

I don't know if thundermax makes a computer for this bike, but if they do, I would recommend it. I have had a few bikes with a thundermax and they perform way better than any "map tune" could ever do. The thundermax basically makes a custom map for your bike that adjusts and tunes itself and keeps getting better the more you ride it.

What’s the cost per HP gained

Any update on tuners beside SE?

Nice to see one on a dyno to get the real numbers. Kind of weak considering the price. 😮

The throttle to wheel response seems a little slow. Was it in rain mode? When he gave the throttle a full twist the rear wheel response was slow. Could have just been the video or me.

Do you agree full size gets the best dyno results

Just the sound improvement alone is worth the price. For a bike that expensive a person shouldn’t need to pay for upgrades. The world we live in I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️

I have a Challenger that costs $20k less and this bike definitely doesn’t want to meet it on the open highway lol

A motor that size should make way more power.

Wow, a motorcycle that doesn't sound like a pissed off weedeater. Sounds pretty decent.

I agree, the pipes looked good on that bike. However, if I had a CVO I would probably leave it stock.

To all the people complaining about the numbers. Emissions is what is holding this bike back. Blame Biden and politicians like him, not Harley. With a 777xe cam (obviously when and if they make a compatible version), the CVO will probably make 140/140 plus. I bet you can get 150/150 with a proper pipe, cam, intake and tune. Unfortunately Harley just can’t sell it to you like that, but they do give you a pretty solid platform to build on. And most people that buy Harley’s wont need more power then the CVO already makes. Oh and for those that are curious I ride a 2018 128ci Heritage Classic. FM 128 kit, FM AC/DC filter, Fueling 472 with full fueling cam chest and a D&D Fat Cat. More then enough for me but I am considering the CVO. Maybe in two years or so and I’ll have one.

I am certainly no means of a mechanic and I've had enough Yamahas and Harley-Davidsons but isn't that kind of jacked up to do that to a brand new engine during break in

I don't know. I love bikes and I enjoy my HD but 50k for a bike that literally makes 100hp to the wheel out of a 121ci motor is depressing lol

Why does this tuner not want to hit VVT and leaving us wanting more? We're getting blue-balled over here. The only good part was the first 10 seconds of this video...

Why isn't he wearing ear protection???????

use the Wedge Cleaner. stock cleaner is worthless

Every pipe I’ve seen looks too long with these new bags.

Doesn't sound like a Harley. It's too bad you only 35 years old. Go to a 48. Meet a panhand meat or show head meat and you'll get it. So sad. Too bad, not a purchaser

What tuner is being used on this
