I am looking to buy a newer bike. Narrowed it down to 3. 2016 Road Glide Ultra CVO, 2018 Electra Glide Ultra Limited or a 2018 Road Glide Ultra. Not sure on the M8. I know the 110" has made it's mark. Thoughts?
You can rule one out by deciding on whether you want the batwing or frame mounted fairing. If you don't know, I suggest you ride both before you decide.
I have a 2004 Electra Glide Classic 88". Needing the power! Love the batwing but wanting something different. I don't see a whole lot of Road Glides down here in Bama country. That is the reasoning for my consideration.
They're going to handle differently. I still say ride them both, then decide. I personally like the batwing and have never ridden a RG, but a lot of people swear by them and claim they handle better. If you're looking at spending that kind of money and your dealer won't let you ride them, find another dealer.
Oh yeah no doubt. They gave me a $25K out the door on either new one. Looking close to $31K on the 2016 CVO (2,800mls.) A lot of money so i'm trying to make sure I spend it right! Thanks guys.
