There ain't no perfect nothin. :D

Actually a Harley must be the worst and most inferior bike made. The evidence is in the aftermarket goods that are applied. Must be chit if everything stock must be upgraded. :P In truth I believe the Harley crowd of riders are the most persnickety group on earth. No offense gents I'm one also.

I saw on another post that Jswerve said he would keep his new bike completely stock except pipe and tune, and to quote him bawahaha. Just funning mate.

Bwahahaha!  :coolblue:

I originally felt the same way as the OP when I rented a 14 Limited for 2 days. My 09 ElectraGlide was like riding an EZ chair with 12 inch apes and footboards pushed forward oh and a worn out stock seat.
After riding a 14 for a week I became very comfortable on it. So it takes time.
The seat on the CVO is different from the Limited and the Backrest takes some getting used to. I put the backrest all the way down and loosened the set screw in back. Believe it or not that set screw made a huge difference In the forward push.
I am 6'01 and still getting used to her with only 800 miles on it so far. I ride her every day to work and I am looking forward to a good hard long ride. This bike handles much better and the ride is hands down better than my 09

yeah

the 2014 cvo limiteds are very comfy, that hammock seat pushes you forward though,which can make the brake pedal somewhat cramped and awkward if you are over 5"10,
however "Softftbrake" do extended reach brake pedals, this clears this problem right up, get some miles on her first though and see how you feel.

Maybe there is a difference between the RG and Regular Ultras (meaning CVO Ultra Classic Batwing)?

With the backrest on I do feel pushed forward. I rode more in MV with it on then I have on any other bike I have ever owned with one. When the backrest is off, I feel further back. I am 5'10"+ and felt a little cramped at first. Once I got used to riding the bike the way to was setup (handlebars and seat/highway pegs) it is hands down the best I have ever owned.

Hey Rob - what does your BSR think of the no lumbar adjustment on the new bike?

I can tell you my wife noticed that right off when we looked at the new Ultra's and she immediately baulked at the idea that they removed it; she loves the lumbar on our 13 Ultra.

Honestly Duane, I don't think she even noticed.  :nixweiss: I am floored at how much she really likes this bike.  :drink:

Good to hear. Even though she never sat on one of adjustable versions, she "knows" about it with LtBawb's bike, and now knows the new ones are sans that.

Either of you change the rear shocks yet?
if not, are they "OK"

I have not changed them and at this point have no intention to do so.  Of course that is subject to change.
