Yup, if it didn't have ABS, I wouldn't have bought it.

Had read two contradictory sources.  Was just waiting for someone that had been hands-on to confirm either way.

I rode the FLHTX yesterday at the Canadian Hog Rally in Calgary. It sure lacks power, I just came off of my 04 SEEG.

I was not really impressed, expected painted inner fairing, chrome handle bars, and controls etc..

Engine lacked power, however that could be changed, I guess we are spoiled with the SE 103".

First time I rode an 09 - 10 framed bike liked the ride and the ABS.

I would consider buying one, however would have to do a s--t load of changes. Never had a chance to ride the Street Glide or Road Glide as it was raining and they cancelled the demos. But I did see IGOFAR's CVO Ultra in the parking lot, did not see him though.

This bike in Canada will probably be around the CDN $32,000 - $34,000.

I traded my 07 cuse2 for one one last week. The ride is noticeably smoother, better cornering, and no more smell of burnt flesh when sitting at a traffic light!  The stock pipes are a bit throatier than the sewing machines of the past, a pair of slip-ons may be all it needs for more growl. The Black Ice pops out in the sunlight, a lot of flake in the paint.  Not as much bling as the CVO, but some nice touches, and a lot less money.  I noticed a little less power running through the N.C. mountains, but it is still stock, I was used to the Rineharts and race tuner with no tour pak on the 110.  Compared the specs to my husband's 04 FLHTCSE, they are nearly identical as far as compression, stroke, bore and torque.  At 1400 miles, I'm satisfied.....so far.

I saw that color scheme on the showroom floor and they sure did a beautiful job on it.  Congrats on the new ride.  I'm certain you'll enjoy it.

Just brought home a Limited last week....was wondering what to do to increase the HP.  Thinking about the V & H's monster ovals....they say it will help.

Any thoughts on this would be appreciated!

Thanks

Changing the air cleaner and the pipes is the best bang for buck performance increase you'll get right off the bat.  Getting that 103 to breathe better is key to immediate performance increase.

I have been looking at new breathers.... not really any specifications on them except that they are stage 1.  SE stage 1, Big Breather, Big Sucker....any thoughts on how to select one.....or is the performace just a given and select the one that you think will look the best on your bike and that you can afford.
