One of the improvements of the 14 FLHTK was the clock - instead of losing several minutes a month as it did on my 02 & 09, the new clock added 1 minute a year.
Gas gauge accuracy remained about the same for my 94, 02, 09 & 14.
Speedometer/Odometer - the 14 is by far the worst, mines off by 4+ miles per 100 miles traveled when compared to the interstate mile markers in multiple states. My 94 (cable driven) and my 02 were within a few tenths of a mile per 100. Now when I want to do a 500 mile day I just ride an extra 20 miles to account for the odometer error. For whatever the reason, the speedometer seems to be 3 mph over actual speed when compared to roadside speed radar such as that seen in may school zones.

Don't know about the Rushmores, but on my 09 the clock was loosing time when I got it.
They came out with updated the software, actually twice since I bought my bike.
One of the fixes was to get the clock to keep better time. Now I do not have to reset the clock unless there is a time change or I disconnect the power.
