Great bike.

  I picked mine up yesterday, pictures later.   I have a question about two parts in the pack.  They are part number 57780 -11 left and right.  The only thing I can find out is that they are lower wind deflectors.  Seems crazy but I can't figure out where they install on the motorcycle.
  I put 300 miles on it so far.  Runs and looks great but found a problem with the radio.  The CB switch seem to stick sometime.  It will not disengage so I can't receive.  Unfortunately it come and goes so it may be hard to diagnose.

When I was in Sturgis it looked like they clampted on the crash guard and something else. Doc

How'd she do? What was the ambient temp outside? Humidity? And how was the engine heat? Thanks for sharing!
Rob,

It was about 98 degrees, high humidity, and the engine heat was HOT! Nothing out of the ordinary for a new engine though. Once you get used to the fixed fairing, this bike is absolutely incredible. I sat on one of my batwings today and felt like the guages were crammed up my nose. lol So far, very happy with the RG!!

Sweet, you took her back home to see the folks. Were you able to keep the speed within reason or were you like me an let her open up?

Simon


I ran her about 75mph without any problem. I'm not much a speed demon anymore, but 75-80 was smooth as silk.

That sounds like 4th gear most of the way :)

LOL! So Desert, what pipes are you gonna put on her. I'm thinking about just putting some Rinehart 4" slip-ons and seeing how she runs. I just want some sound without getting all crazy with fuel management, cams, etc. Your thoughts? (or anyone else's for that matter)

The sound would be a plus with slip-ons but I'm not sure I need that right now. On tours, I think I will prefer the quieter stock exhaust. If I want loud in the future I might just consider a 2nd bike. Some of the folks on CVOHarley with multiple SE models are inspiring me to be financially irresponsible.  :huepfenjump3:

I've been running stock everything on my 09' SEUC, but I'm having more instance of people switching lanes into me. The trip I just took up to Mackinac, I had 5 cars come over into me and a semi that took me off the road into the berm. I'm wanting to make a little noise. I just ordered Rinehart 4" slip ons from Jenni @ Tri-County HD and got 20% off. THANK YOU CVOHARLEY FORUM!!!

Let us know how that turns out for you. I did like the sound of my Rineharts on my old 2007 FLTR.

Also, while most drivers don't do well giving motorcycles room to run but it sounds like Michigan drivers have some special deficiencies in that area.

I am going to look at and probably pick up a Red RG Ultra CVO tomorrow (if the numbers are right). I "plan" on getting an X Pipe and both size baffles from Full Sac Performance. That and a TTS Master Tune tuner and I think I will call her done this time..... :drink:

Good for you Rob... I saw one yesterday and it is really beautiful.    Good luck with it if you decide to pick it up. :2vrolijk_21:   Where did you find one?

Mine came in on Friday and will be ready for pick up on Tuesday. I can't wait. I'm still trying to decide on exhaust and a tuner.
