Well - reliability, heat management, etc. If they improved that and kept perf the same, I'm guessing a lot of people will take it.

But the MoCo claimed 10% improvement, looks to me like thats accurate. Along with a more reliable design, and better heat management.

Its always nice to get New and Improved, lol - I had a 2004 FLHTCI with 82K - ran great, just time for a new one - got the 15 Ultra Limited - So far, No issues with reliability or Heat - Would like the 10% but that would be more of a Want rather than a Need, lol
