Who's over 70 and still ride an Ultra?
Just curious how many are over 70 and still riding an Ultra. I have toyed with the notion of going to a lighter bike, but this weekend's ride convinced me that I would miss the comfort and extras of my CVO Ultra. I turned 70 in October and I realize that my riding days are numbered so I plan to enjoy it every chance I get. I do try to avoid gravel parking lots and parking on slopes as much as possible though.

I'm a few months behind you and ride a Glide (plus a Firebolt) which I don't plan on getting rid of any time soon. I have already looked at smaller bikes, with an eye on the future, as a few friends have for various reasons already down sized. Another who is in his '80s still rides big bikes, although he's never owned a Harley.

In 2015 my Bro-inlaw turned 75 and he decided he was done biking.He sold his 09 EG Classic.By the spring of 2016 he was lookin for another bike.I found him a low milage 08 Heritage Classic in mint condition.He is back in the saddle again.The thing he noticed most about the Softail,is how much smoother it rides than his EG.Also it is lighter and easier to move around,plus the lower ride height.I think he has a few more years riding left in him now.
