I’ve owned ‘’17 CVO Street Glide and paid well over $40k. I could tell you this and tell all potential bike buyers, paying 24k for ultra limited motorcycle is Best bang for your buck. This bike is best motorcycle you could buy for the money you spend. Ride safe 🙏
I have the 2017 Ultra Limited & absolutely luv it!
I love the hydraulic clutch. The brakes on my Ultra are the best brakes I've ever had on a bike.
FANTASTIC REVIEW MY FRIEND. GREAT DETAILS THAT ARE NOT NORMALLY TOUCHED UPON. IM A SUB FROM NOW ON.
Well done. Just about to pull the trigger on. 2019 UL. Great honest review. Appreciate it!
Great video! I'm about to buy a 2019 and this video was very informative. Thanks.
The 2019 has a number of improvements. For example, the infotainment system boot-up is almost instantaneous and the GPS mapping is better. Enjoy!
Great review! I definitely don't have buyers remorse. We love the Ultra. Hoping to get at least 80-100k miles out of it.
Good evening "Big Cheese" long time no see! Another very informative video.
I do like the idea of a new/used Ultra Classic. Your Ultra Classic has a very nice presence.
So another day for a different mount for me. Although my 4Runner is in the shop
undergoing an "Overland" modification. A rather large amount of coin spent for the same.
Hopefully I should have it back by Friday.
I do plan on coming up your way in September. It would be nice to share a meal, once again.
Cheers, Mate.
Would welcome your return!
I can't get over how you sound like the Heath Ledger Joker voice!! On another note informative information!!
I think the fuel cap should be hinged at the top rather than the bottom. Feels like the lid is in my way as I’m putting the nozzle in.
I have a 2016 Ultra Limited before this bike I had a 2013 Ultra Road Glide. I notice the the handling so much better plus the comfort on long rides. Awesome bike
Liked it, subscribed. What year is it and how many miles?
Wow , excellent review. A review that I felt was fair, and not in any way biased. Loved the ride addition too.
I consider your input high praise here.
:)
@@nwroadrat Thank you , I appreciate, respect, and reciprocate that feeling my friend.
Great review, nice to hear you like the clutch and I am also a fan of linked brakes but I will just have to suffer as I wouldn’t part with mine and can’t afford two. Nice windshield I prefer “naked” but the shield just makes riding better.
The clutch took a bit getting used too, but I knew I was going to have to "convert".
Thanks, very informative. Not tremendously different from my '07 per item, but totally different in the whole.
Same basic concept, but the handling, balance and ride...my oh my.
My dad has a 2014 ultra limited... He did a cross country run from Washington to Florida and back. Her loves that bike.
I can see why the bike is loved. Thanks for viewing.
Great review. I plan on upgrading to Ultra in a couple years. More the likely a used one like yourself. Being in Ohio and dealing with long winters, it's tough having a big payment sitting in the garage for months at a time....lol. I'm on a 2011 Road King now and really enjoy it, but I love the extra protection and comfort the Ultra provides. The real problem.....if you want to call it that.....is that my wife rides too. We just bought her a 2013 Fat Boy Lo a few months ago and we still have her 883 Sportster. So, do I get rid of a motorcycle or two when I decide to pull the trigger on an Ultra? or just add a bigger garage to the house?....lol.....Ride Safe. Really enjoy your vids on this bike because you and I seem a lot a like as far as likes and needs as far as motorcycles go. Keep em coming.
I probably won't add a heated seat, but if you need, along with the grips and a vest, you'd be set! Thanks for watching.
I bought a pre-owned 2011 FLHTK in December of 2023, and I noticed that the hand grips were starting to deteriorate too. I'm hoping that replacing them will be easy and not too expensive.
Nice review
Very good review🤙🤙🤙🏍
Did u mention the MDL year?
looks like you are liking the new bike .. some camping video's or long trips this summer ???
Maybe, but doubtful. Job is really busy.
Great review. What is the Riders felt heat on The Limited compared to the traditional air-cooled V-Twin?
It depends. I hardly notice in the cooler months. On a summer day The Limited does get very hot, but it doesn't seem as hot as my prior air-cooled only bike.
@@nwroadrat thanks for the reply. I currently have a 2016 Ultra Classic, and down here in Florida during the summer months I have to take the lowers off because it is so hot from the engine. I'm considering moving up to the wet head Limited so that I can keep the lowers on during the summer months too.
I rented a similar setup in Hawaii. Total torture.
The partially liquid cooled Ultra, with the EITMS enabled and a good quality synthetic (takes off 5-10 degrees), was doable on a hot summer day for me in 90+ degrees. If you needed more the oil pan extension for another quart would probably do the trick, but I don't need that where I live. Good luck.
Thank you sir, happy New Year and ride safe.
Hey does that “cat effect” come as a pre set on your editing software? .....my 2018, if you sneeze next to it there will be a scratch!! I agree, a very weak point on bike is that 3 screw area for windshield and always has been. My last bike was a nightmare concerning that issue. As always, pro job on review! 👏
Share the drama...what went on with the last bike and the sheild mounting?
TheRoadRatt the “well nuts” that receive the screws always stripped/got loose. I would have to epoxy them every season. Couple times I almost lost shield! They should have at least 4 there imo. 5 even better.
@@RidinCountry Hell yeah cheers
Looking at a 2013 one, but a quick question. Is there any vibration from the engine at idle and at speed? i have arthritis in my ankles which vibrations will make my feet go numb with vibration. My royal star does not cause me any issues, but by suzuki c50 t two cylinder numbs my feet after 30 minutes. enjoyed you video. thanks for sharing the video and the information.
Doubt the older Twin-Cam model will work for you. I would test ride one with a newer Harley Milwaukee-Eight engine. Less vibration and see how that cooperates.
@@nwroadrat 2013 is an older model? okay thanks. Guess i will stick with the Royal Star for now. the 2013 is about the newest i can afford. thanks for the reply and i will keep saving money. Have a great week.
Sounds like a better plan. Good luck.
Was this a 2016? I absolutely love mine and is a smoothest nicest touring bike I’ve ever owned granted the 2022 and 23 are probably nicer with more features but this one with the V-twin will definitely go over 150,000 miles and it’s got plenty of power without high output V-twin and I’m very pleased with it
💯%
For the heated grips... buy the covers that slip over them. Makes them look better and will prolong the life of the heated grips
I see a lot of used, low mileage ‘14’s but not so many ‘15’s or ‘16’s. Any reason why?
That's a good question, and I've noticed the same. I don't know. Mines so far been solid with reliability.
Dood turn on your garage lights or did that bike set you back and u cant pay the lite bill lol just kiddin great video
My black cat is sitting in my lap as we speak...lol........Good review...and yes the stock grips are crap as far as longevity . One issue I noticed lately is a few of my riding buddies , the water pump has failed, no recall, the pump will drain dry out of the reservoir and a dash light will appear .There is a new and improved upgrade model HD is using for replacement .
Thanks for the warning about the pump! Will keep an eye on it.
I literally just found this video. I picked up a new/used Ultra Limited for $18k OTD. It had 15 miles on it and couldnt pass it up. Its basically a new bike with a stage 1 and pipes :)
glickmpb damn! What year
@@MarkR973 2016! :) It was in new condition!
That was a pretty awesome review. Too bad there is no perfect bike out there.
The perfect road bike is probably the Road Glide Ultra...lol. But you don't find those at the discount I got this one.
What is your first choice of a bike?
Currently, I like Harley Davidson touring models, but those aren't good beginner bikes if that's what you're asking about. For a learner bike, I like something low cost and light. And one that you don't mind dropping on its side. Getting a bike with a big monster powerful engine will just scare you at the start. You'll be worried about the bikes power instead of focusing on basics like turning and braking. Get the purpose oriented bike first. After that's mastered, then get the cool bike. ;-)
@@nwroadrat Thankg but I am not a beginner. I thought you said your Harley was not your first choice?
@@dry509 Back when I started riding, no. Not my first choice. But the landscape has changed. I would follow who in your area can service the model you choose very well. I live where there's many HD skilled private mechanics that offer better service than the dealers.
The 2020 Ultra CVO is even less bike! And much more money!! Some of the things you would expect in a top of the line bike are extra cost options these days. Harley is on the way out--whether they know it or not.
The m8 isnt that great to justify selling a late model twin cam for one. Plus they don’t sound as good. Enjoy your ride!
👊
Shepard Commander Are you kidding me? I traded in my 2015 103 Ultra for the 2017 Ultra I currently own ! The difference in smoothness & power delivery is night & Day!
I beg to differ I traded in my 2015 103 Twin Cam for a new 2017 M8! After the rest ride I was sold . The M8 is such a Better Powerplant it’s not even funny . After 11K mikes I’m still loving it & so happy !
Your cat was jealous of you fawning over the elephant ;)
There's a trick to getting these behemoths off the side stand. Turn the steering all the way to the right. I think you'll be surprised how much easier they come off their stand. You can send me the $$$ you were saving toward wrist surgery via Paypal.
Nice review, but I'm not a fan of abrupt clutch engagement. May work fine if you're just shifting gears, but if you need to slip it, all bets are off.
Starting 2014, the balance is changed up a bit. They come off the kickstand easier. After experiencing this bike, and I got a taste of this from test rides, I don't think I've ever want a 2013 and under touring HD ever again. The clutch will be a love/hate thing. Doubt they want it slipped, but I don't really know. Thanks for the view!
Agreed the nav system is not user friendly,,,,,,a waste . The entire boom box is not something that I would miss
25K 2ND 14 LIMITED PERFECT BIKE NOT FOR AROUND TOWN ITS A HIGHWAY BIKE 90MPH CROSS COUNTRY SMOOTH GREAT
2019 ultra limited 114ci not to impressive
A Winnebago on 2 wheels.
The only way you don't have buyers remorse is if you don't have to make payments on this b****
The only way you could think this bike is wonderful is if you never drove anything else, lotta bling no balls.
What a stupid comment. The bike is designed for touring not racing. I have a 2016 Ultra Limited and a 2018 VMax. Each one has a purpose.
@@glickmpb If your into the biggest heaviest and slowest i have a 2019 ultra limited for sale cheap 36,000 which amounts to the biggest mistake of my life buyers remorse absolutely
@@rva7408 Sux to be you. I didnt buy my Harley to race on. Thats what my VMax is for. I bought it to tour on, so I dont care about launching from a stop and racing other bikes. Again, thats what my VMax is for.
@@glickmpb That being said I would never buy a harley again maybe a BMW or a Goldwing be a far better choice ignorance is bliss
