As most of you know I just got a new Ultra Limited and I have to say that for the two days I have owned this bike I am just literally in heaven. This bike is so nice that I just can't believe it. Harley put a lot thought into these bikes when they designed them, that is obvious, and the water cooling is just the sh*t! It was smoking hot yesterday and there is a HUGE difference in how much heat this bike puts out vs an air cooled engine. I gotta laugh out loud at anyone who is pissed off about Harley moving in this direction.
I went to lowes at 7am this morning and it was a little chilly so I turned my heated grips on.....went ahead and turned them all the way up to 6 lol. It about burned my hands they got so hot! About 2 seemed to be perfect. The infotainment system is awesome and I love how the side bags and trunk you only need one hand to open them. Anyone thinking about getting one of these bikes, all I can say is stop putting it off and just do it because you won't be disappointed at all. The comfort of the bike is amazing also, I could see myself putting in serious miles in a days time on this bike for sure.
There is only 2 things that keep this bike from being a perfect 10 that I can think of and that would be it's lack of heated seats and reverse. Other than that......HD hit a Home Run! I think ive heard that saying somewhere before and it turned out to be a foul ball lol.
This bike though is everything I want and it literally puts a smile on my face every time I get on it, and I guarantee you that I will still feel the same way 5 years from now about it providing it gives me reliable service.
It definitely puts some riders right into that sweet spot. Unfortunately not for every rider though. Those short or tall riders have the same typical problems. New seat and or bars are required. I've done both and now enjoy the Limited much more.
I don't have very many luxuries on my Heritage,, but I still get a smile every time I throw my leg over her and its been that way for 8yrs since I got her..
