Because you don't see many limited with them. Usually only the ultra classics. It's a 1 owner with less than 2k miles. It's at a Ford dealership so.

Pinstripes stay "above" the headlight on the batwing but most definitely wrap around the end of the saddlebags on my Ultra Classic.

Yup you got me there. I think it's the Rushmore Ultra that the stripe doesn't come all the way around.

If they're on a Limited the owner put them on. They don't come from the factory with them.
