2017 Ultra Limited No CB
I checked out a 2017 Ultra Limited at my dealer today. It was the two tone gray denim, and even though I am not a denim fan, it looked awesome. The sales guy started it for me, and wow it sounded great with no noticeable top end noise. They offered me a test ride, but my wallet wouldn't let me.
But!!! WTF??? There was no CB? Who did Harley test that decision with?? Starbucks cruisers, or people that have never ridden with anyone else. The guys at the dealer were just as surprised as me. The parts guy looked up all the stuff needed to add a CB, and with labor he figured about $750!! WTF??

Yep, only the CVO Limited has CB. Next year probably nothing will come with CB, because of all the advancements the MoCo has made with their Boom - Bluetooth system.

Had a cb in my last two bikes and never turned it on once. Too many other better options out there. If they would add a Bluetooth headset capability to the bike a cb would be useless.

Group rides
CB's work well for group rides to let the group know what's going on like changing lanes. It allows for communicating with more than one other person. The phone works well but can only talk with one person at a time. I use mine all the time.
