No more front bumper on the Ultra Limited... cost cutting or styling change?

The funny thing is some of the 2011 Limited pictures show a front bumper and some don't?

What's the reasoning behind that?
Lowest price point possible for entry-level tourer is my guess. (???)

Like most, nothing really rocked my world, because I'm very happy with my current ride -- ABS RK Police with the 103. Nothing new there for me to jump at right now.

If I were new to the Harley market, I guess I'd be all googly-eyed as I have been in the past.

RG Ultra has 103" standard
Ultra Classic still has 96". Anybody notice if the Ultra has the 103" option. I didn't see it.

I cannot believe how many different sportster models they have out. You could fill a dealership just with those.

It would be nice to make the 103 standard on all the touring bikes without jacking up the price.

Oh come on! Nobody, not even car manufacturers offer as many changes in their line Every year as Harley. Some Harley owners are so spoiled that if MOCO doesn't come out with their own personal build-up, they are disapointed. It only took Harley one year to get rid of the 2 in 1 exhaust. That would have taken Honda five. We have more color and model options just in the touring group than many manufacturers have in total bikes. You want a 103 engine stock, they have it. You want it a 103 option from the factory, it's there. I liked the colors MOCO came out with last year, but they did just as good this year. If it wasn't for my CPA wife, I would trade in my bike every year just for a new color. Nobody tops Harley for keeping their bike line exciting.

Seems like the folks who own a Harley will have no reason to upgrade
i know some do every year, but for me my 08 Ultra with cams and add-ons will work for another year. Thanks MOCO for not doing anything outrageous, except maybe the RG Ultra, so that I can keep my $$$ with me and not give it to you.

I like the Road Glide Ultra. My bike is paid for but I might trade up if I like the bike when I see it on the sales floor.
