Hello Everyone,

Just put down a deposit on a 2009 SEUC. Stardust Silver & Twilight Blue. Hope to have it by end of the week. Currently riding 06 Heritage Classic. What I have read on this forum about the SEUC kinda scares me a little. Seems there is lots of negative comments about this bike. I am very excited about purchasing the bike, but wonder if I am making a mistake now.

This is year 3 of the 110 so it should be better, but it is HD, anything is possible.
Relax, enjoy and ride the wheels off it.

Has anyone heard the sound of the 09 SEUC. Also I have heard that the aftermarket pipes/mufflers will be delayed for about 1 year. Seems Harley wants to hold onto the exhaust market on the SE's. Of course u can hear anything but was really wanting to put some Rinehart's on the new scoot. but that may not happen as soon as I would like if this is true.

Thanks All

Wow, gorgeous looking bike. Less thean 1% of any group ever says anything, people like to watch. Of the less than 1%, 80% will say what bugs them the most, or what they hate, or their misfortunes. Of the 20% left over of that less than 1% only about 5% will report great successes. So you can see if you just look at the numbers, you will hear more bad than good. This is just plain life. So that means for anything bad you read on this site, there are a lot more good you have not read, and 99% untold stories at all. Lets hear your great success story and share some pics. You are going to love this bike.

Well, Got the call yesterday from Route 66 Harley. The Eagle Has Landed[/b]. Boarding a jet Friday morning 5:50 am. Be in Tulsa 9:41. Pickup SE and ride it home back to Mississippi. Will post lots of pictures Saturday. By the way, I have read in previous posts that there is supposed to be a tool kit with the bike, but I have looked at several WEB sites about what all comes with the bike, but I have never seen anything about a tool kit. I have heard that most of the time, the dealers don't mention them and keep them. What's the real deal about the tool Kit ?

DESERTBEAR54 · « **Reply #40 on:** September 10, 2008, 03:26:21 PM »

Scooter55 · « **Reply #41 on:** September 10, 2008, 04:02:10 PM »

A couple of weeks ago I picked up a new FXDSE2 and got the cover but no ToolKit.. I should be questioning them on this... THANKS FOR INFORMATION

Just received an e-mail from our Local Harley Dealer about the ToolKit. Here's his response:

Only touring bikes with sadllebags come with a kit. They are the only ones that have room to store it. I hope this helps out.

That's a lie. I received a tool kit with my 2008 Screamin' Eagle Springer. What a drag you have to put up with this type of nonsense when spending that much money.

Scooter55 · « **Reply #47 on:** September 11, 2008, 04:54:37 PM »

Thanks Sierramadre !!

That was an actual Cut & Paste from the email I received from Harley Davidson Dealer... Maybe because my wife won the bike at the Casino, they don't feel I deserve the accessories... When I go and sell the bike I'm sure the experienced purchaser will think I'm holding out on the Toolkit.. That's why it's great to have a website like this to find out the truth from fellow bikers...

JoMo · « **Reply #48 on:** September 11, 2008, 09:46:11 PM »

I have a 2008 softail custom I didn't get a tool kit either.
Does that come with one ? and how do you find out about what accessories you should have received ?

SE66 · « **Reply #49 on:** September 17, 2008, 05:10:36 PM »

Well I made it back from Tulsa with the new bike. Love the color and power, but I will have to admit, this is the most uncomfortable bike I have ever ridden. Floorboards are to high, backrest does not tilt back enough, handlebars are to low. All makes for a very tired back very quickly. Going for the 1k mile service this Saturday. Hoping they can raise the handlebars up a little. I am going to try and bend the backrest arms enough that it will lean back more. As for the floorbards, not sure how to handle this. the highway pegs are a great stretch. Will have to purchase the wrap around mounts to get the pegs in closer. I know I will love this bike more when I get it setup. Evidently whoever test rides these bikes, don't ride them very long, because they would see they don't fit very well. A real shame, such a great looking bike, and you would expect for the money that it would be more comfortable than what it is !!

I hate to sound so negative about this bike, but it's the truth. Not giving up, I will make all the adjustments I can, and hopefully I will get a bike that I can ride for 20 miles without my back killing me.

Also I was planning on putting the Rinehart Slip On's on it this weekend. Talked with Tech at Rinehart and he told me that the slipons (PN # 1901-0100) will fit this bike. and that the True Duals would probably hit the market place around the first of the year. But I'm thinking with as much power as this bike already has, why do I need true duals ?

Your thoughts.

SE66 · « **Reply #50 on:** September 17, 2008, 05:12:55 PM »

Sorry about the incorrect Part Number : the correct PN is : 1801-0100

Sierramadre · « **Reply #51 on:** September 17, 2008, 05:14:26 PM »

I have the Rinehart Tru Dual slp ons on my SERG and the power band is very strong. I'm adding the tru dual headpipe when its available mainly for the improved exhaust note.

SE66 · « **Reply #52 on:** September 22, 2008, 01:41:09 PM »

Was curious if anyone could give me a good source for purchasing the Rinehart Slip-ons for the 09 SEUC. I have talked with the tech's and Rinehart and they assure me that the 1801-0100 for the 08 yr model will fit without any problems. their very words are : to insert a a 3/8" inch spacer (or flat washer) between stock mounting bracket and the muffler mounting bracket. This allows for the Slip-on muffler to sit at a position that creates the space needed for clearance.

Anyway, I was curious if anyone knew of any good deals out there on who has the best price on these muff's.?

Appreciate any suggestions or comments about this thread.

Is that the Autumn Haze/High Octane Orange SEUC in the background? I can find lots of actual photos of the ruby red and the silver/blue bikes in the outdoors, but none of the Autumn Haze/orange out in the sun. Can anyone guide me to any? Thanks, newbie here, will post an intro note in a few days when I know more.

I just bought my 3rd SE bike and my 6th HD in the fleet. I just got my 09' SEUC (Autumn Haze/High Octane Orange) about a month ago and have 6600 miles on her already. I took her to Glacier Nat'l park, thru Yellowstone, and home to Ohio thru Utah & Colorado. She did very well and I had no problems. I traded an 00' UC with 83k miles on her and it was nice to take a trip and have no problems. I look forward to being a member on here and learning as much as I can.

Thanks,

Well I finally got around to snapping a few pic's of the new bike. Bike is starting to feel better, Had to purchase different highway mounts, but finally got them so they are now comfortable. Worked on the backrest mounting bracket and got that adjusted where it is now comfortable. Decided not to go with the Rinehart slip ons. Going to wait on the Rinehart true duals, hopefully will be on the market by the first of the year, at least that's what they are telling me. So for now all I can suggest is turn up the radio and ride on.

I questioned the Harley Dealer and they insisted that it doesn't come with the toolkit. We only supply with bikes that have Saddlebags and Storage Areas. I guess you are getting the same response.
