Default Major Problem with 14' Limited

Hopefully trading my 07' ultra in on a 14' Limited in the next month or 2. Problem is, that's too long to wait for me.

I've enjoyed this forum and reading about the Rushmore's and seeing what people are doing with theirs. Can't wait to ride one out of the showroom and put some miles on it, (after some audio tweaking)!

Safe riding, and hope to have my own soon!

I traded a 07 SE Ultra for a 14 Limited. Huge step up. You will love the new bike. For me; they addressed all the issues I had with previous touring bikes. My 14 Limited is the bike I always wanted. You won't be sorry.

I traded an '07 Ultra for a '14 Limited. It's quite a difference. Not only do you get the most recent improvements but you get improvements from as far back as '09 with the new frame design. It takes some getting used to because it feels so much taller and wider than the '07 but the power difference is incredible. Be careful with the brakes because they will stand you on your nose until you get used to them.

Thanks very much, smooth, lower rumble than stock but not overly loud which is what I was going for.

To the OP, post pics when you do get the new one!
