Gorgeous, wish you many safe miles. Just bought my 15 Ultra Limited (Deep Jade Green and Black) and was blown away by the ride coming off a Honda VTX1300R.

When I'm solo, and really enjoying myself riding, pushing it, testing it's limits, I get the same feeling. Noticed it on the very first test ride.

There's a lot of performance coming from these stock rides.

Having updated from an '86 Tour Glide, my new Rushmore is like riding a rocketship with all the features, advancements and improvements.

What a summer this is going to be!!!

I agree on all counts here.

Bolded the performance section as honestly, after commuting to work all week on the bike, all highway, this may be the first bike I've owned in 30 years that I don't do any performance mods too. Heck, I may even leave the pipes stock so I can properly hear the infotainment system, LOL.

In all seriousness. While everyone gets excited over a new bike, after owning this one for roughly a week, and putting on a few hundred miles, I can honestly say it is the best bike, Harley or other, that I have ever owned. Performance, fit and finish, looks etc. are all truly top notch\world class IMHO.

I even told my wife I have zero buyers remorse for the first time ever!
