2016 Harley Road Glide Ultra Review
 
Just saw this review, and am excited to see the Ultra return to the lineup.

Just noticed that the rider doing that review is a lady. Seemed to handle that big bike pretty well.

She states the Ultra is 3/4 of a ton unloaded? I think she might be a little on the heavy side.

Yeah I caught that too. I think she thinks a ton is 1000 pounds, rather than two thousand pounds.

Apparently she does her own copywriting because somebody should have caught that little faux pas.

I like it....I am still not sure if I would like to own one, I would need to ride it fir a day to make a good judgment call...unfortunately I am not in the market for a new bike right now....

Stopped at the dealer today and almost got talked into one of those,but I love my Ultra and got tons of $$ into it.I think I'll stay away from there for a while. Gotta say that new silver and black looks good together though

Just got home. While I have made the deal still have not picked a color. Wife is thinking about the Silver and Black. Should figure it out tomorrow.
Going with a 2016 RGU was not a hard call for me, been waiting for it. I have been sold on RG and RGU for some time and a lot of miles. I will miss the 2013 RGU but I am sure the new one will cure that.

Saw the silver and black at the dealer and it was nice, but I prefer a single color like my 2012 RGU. i would like the twin cooling and the linked brake. Still not sure about the new fairing, I would still probably need a Madstad. Mt big objection is the rear fender and lack of turn signals. I really dislike the light on the fender tip, prefer the clean lines of the old RG, I have a street glice rear fender on mine with LED's , Plasma rods, no center light and a True Flex on the Tour Pak. A cleaner look in my opinion. Not sure what buyers will do for turn signals if they want a removable Tour Pak. I bet they will sell alot of them though.

Well I think the first mod would be to replace the air shocks. You think they would put the adj suspension for that type of money
