Laker · « **Reply #1 on:** September 30, 2005, 01:33:41 PM »

Wheels, seat, fairing lowers, 05 had chopped tour pak come standard, air cleaner cover, headlight, luggage rack and license plate mount.....can't think of anymore off the top of my head.

Just got 05 seeg [smiley=banana.gif]. Noticed by looking at it beside my 04 [smiley=pumpkin.gif] that it stands noticiable higher.Did they Change suspensionson on 05, or could it be the way it is set up. It is very noticable.

pappy2 · « **Reply #18 on:** October 17, 2005, 06:01:15 AM »

I am surprised that nobody realized that the most visible SEEG on earth is the Screamin Chicken. I think the valves on the 05 are a little different (not going to vote on better) too. Not being a "real" Harley guy I personally am not a fan of the Pumpkin color but to each his own. They all need serious work to get close to the hype that HD promises for a top of the line 30k+ bike and the search for improvements never ends. Good luck with whatever you get and enjoy sharing your thoughts and ideas on the site. JP [smiley=banana.gif] [smiley=banana.gif] [smiley=banana.gif]

Both bikes should have the Low Profile suspension, with similar ride heights. Perhaps the springs in the '04 have sagged a little?

The 05 has more miles, It is also noticed front and rear. [smiley=confused5.gif]

I heard the '04's had problems with bugs on the inside of the windshield!

Here are some pics of what I am talking about. Air psi in suspension should not change it this much should it?

sqrrl24 · « **Reply #25 on:** October 18, 2005, 02:01:54 PM »

From the rear.

Looks worse than it is in the picture.

Laker · « **Reply #28 on:** October 18, 2005, 05:14:39 PM »

It might just be an optical illusion. If you look at the left part of each fairing, they are level to the lines in the garage. [smiley=nixweiss.gif] I guess the only way to truly tell would be to have 2 people of the same weight sit on them while not on the kickstand and then snap a pic.

Coolbreeze · « **Reply #29 on:** October 18, 2005, 06:03:45 PM »

Or measure vertically from the ground to the frame...

MYCVO · « **Reply #30 on:** October 18, 2005, 09:41:37 PM »

Yall can bat around 04 and 05 differences all you want, I have my 04 B/B and I love it!!! best bike I've ever road

JR · « **Reply #31 on:** October 18, 2005, 10:01:55 PM »

For one,the taller windshield gives that apperance and lean off kickstand may be off a degree or two. Plus take in the factor of one being further north than the other and picture is taken in Indiana, all this together gives you the optical illusion of the yeller being taller and much more intiminating than the orange or any other color!

spydglide · « **Reply #32 on:** October 18, 2005, 11:35:53 PM »

Optical illusion due to different windscreen heights and color of bikes. I'm sticking w/ that. Har! [smiley=drink.gif]spyder

Got to admit Org/Blk looks lean and mean.

Don't look now, but in the view from the rear even the saddle bags on the '05 look bigger.
