Ok, folks getting new bikes.... Sure making it hard to "Just Say No"

Question:  From your pictures and the pics on the HD site, looks like the handlebars are different than the regular RG.  They look like they are a little higher and back a little.... can you confirm?

Looks like the '09 and '10 mufflers with a different end cap.

Congrats on the new bike! That was the one color that caught my eye too.

Congrats on the new bike.   Was at Joe Carson's HD last night dropping off my wife's FLHX for a cupped front tire but didn't see it (your new bike).  Of course they had no electric last night either.   :cherry:

More than likely forever. I've outgrown the whole "spend thousands of dollars to make it run 5 degrees cooler and to make it loud" game. I put the 7 year warranty on them and ride them lots of miles. So far I've left my 09' SEUC all stock and I'm loving it.  :cucumber: :2vrolijk_21:

They are different than the ones on my 2007 FLTR and the FLTR Custom. Yes, they are higher and turned in. I like the higher, don't care too much for the turned in more as it was cramping me. They had to be adjusted/moved forward for me and I am still getting a bit of numbness in my hands. I don't know if that is because of the diameter on the heated grips or the angle of my wrist (cocked inward). I believe it's the latter and will be looking for a different set of handlebars.

Desert,

The reason your hands are going numb is because you're sporting major-wood whenever you throw a leg over the beast.  All your blood is going to another part of your body :2vrolijk_21:  Its called majorwoodcCVOliosis.  Sadly, there is no cure ::) :o

Does anyone know what the 2 black plastic pieces are that came with the bike? They're in the saddlebag and are both identical. They appear to be some type of wind deflectors, but I can't find anything explaining them in the manual.

That was a minor mystery to the sales guys at Santa Fe Harley too when I picked my bike up. Ron the parts manager came over, identifed them as wind deflectors and installed them.

They go on the frame between the fairing and the gas tank just below the handlebars.

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.

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!!

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.

Jenni @ Tricounty HD accidentally shipped me the 3 1/2 inch Rinehart slip-ons. I liked the looks of them when I put them on, so I'll pass on the 4" this time. They sound great at low speeds <50mph and I can barely hear them at highway speeds. So far they have not discolored which is my greatest concern. The bike runs perfectly without making any other changes. No flat spots and not surging. Very pleased so far.

Opee
