Cool beans there Charlie!

 

I knew that given enough verbage you would eventually come to the light!
Now to get back on topic, I can't wait to see one of the Frosted Ivory/Vintage Gold SE Road Glides in the sunlight.

I want to see it also.  I don't particularly care for the color combo, but still want to see it.  It appears to be a retro-style color combo.

Well, three model years does not a tradition make, but that's neither here nor there.  I'm not going to try and justify or explain why the MoCo does anything they do.  I was just offering my opinion that the 11s are Ultras and the other three model years weren't.  Whether that's right or wrong as to why they didn't put the eagle on really doesn't make no never mind to me.    JMO.

The first ones may not have had the "U" in their designation but they came with rider/passenger backrests, tourpaks, lowers and most importantly EAGLES gracing their fairings. 

The odd-man out here is the 09 presented in a minimalist/hot rod way sans touring garb.  IMHO, the MoCo really missed the mark by leaving it off the 11.

Eagle Needed!

I rest my case your honor!

The Triple Red is also a 2000.  2001 was a Bue and a grey.

Grey   but point well taken

My bad, but you get where I was going

But not all of the things an Ultra comes with.  For whatever reason the MoCo left the eagle off, only the MoCo knows, but the '11 RUSE is still a Screamin Eagle regardless.

Just got back from Laval, HD near Montreal QC., (650 km roundtrip) to see the Frosted/Ivory Vintage/Gold 011 SERG, they just got in. It was worth the drive. I was lucky enough to see both the Rio-Red and the Slate-Grey, in Texas last month, they are nice, but I decided to take a flyer on the Frosted Ivory. I am not at all disappointed, the color combination is great, the Frosted Ivory paint has a faint red fleck in it, looks great in the sunlight, the Vintage Gold has a brownish base to it, which I liked. One thing for sure, this color will draw a crowd, whether it's liked it or not, the comments will fly.
I'm gonna keep mine.  Beagle

You can get a new primed fairing from Zanotti for less than $300 and have a painter here like laryB match the paint and add the eagles.  It'd be unique, pay homage to the original SERG and you can keep the stock fairing in the attic for posterity.

Heck, while you're at it, pick up the 09 SERG rear fender, facia and saddle bag extensions to complete the look.  All it takes is $$$$

The MoCO ruined the RG heritage of the eagle fairing by putting the eagle on the 2010 SE Street Glides.  Talk about trying to dress up a turd...  So I'm kinda glad they left it off the RUSE.  Just found out a buddies creambrulee RUSE finally made it here.  Hopefully will see it on the road in a week( he's getting it lowered so he can actually ride it!).  Then it will be an Elfbrulee!

Well, you could always try and get some '11 SESG tank emblems and put 'em on your RUSE (if you could get around the VIN restriction)

[LV76]

The tank emblems on the 11 SESG are not restricted.
