2009 FLHTCUSE4 vs. 2008 FLHTCUSE3
« on: August 02, 2010, 04:52:58 PM »

I am considering purchasing one of the two bikes and getting rid of my 03 SERK..  was wondering if anyone knows if the frame/suspension changed during the 2008/2009 builds?..  Also, do both have the wider rear tire standard?

Any help appreciated..

Thanks,
Shawn

Shawn,

The frames changed with the 2009 model.  It is now a much longer frame than the 08.  It has a much better ride than the preivious years models and the 09 model has the larger tire.  The 08 has the standard size tire of all the other models.

Yep, what he said.

I had an '08 FLHTC before my '09 SEUC. IMHO the touring model frame change was a big...and positive improvement.
