Got a call from the Harley shop today.

Come on down, we just got two 09 Ultra's and a 09 Road King. (non CVO)

That's all I can think of right now!





When do you get yours?

So a couple of comments,
1)  The front pipe that crosses under the frame is not round, it's more like an oval, a wide oval.
It's flat on top and flat on bottom, like it was round but smashed to gain clearance. And the pipe appears smaller in diameter than the right side pipe.
2)  The frame is much beefier. Much bigger tubes in front, bigger tubes every where.
3)  The swing arm now is no comparison to the past. It is huge, much stronger looking.
4)  The tour pak mounting is totally different from the past. The mount looks like a luggage rack with a tour pak attached.
5)  The drive belt is a good 3" away from the exhaust pipe.
6)  (just my opinion so it could be wrong) The under exhaust is real close to the transmission case. No, it's not going to hit but I'm betting it sure will be hot under there.
7)  The saddlebag mounting brackets are totally different from 08.
8)  We took off the right saddlebag and sidecover and the frame is a bolt together assembly. It's not a one piece frame now.
That's all I can think of right now!
That's all great information. Thank you!
By the way, I have noticed that the seat height on the '09 SEUC is about 1,5 inches lower than on the '08 and at the same time the ground clearance has been increased. Both changes for the good.

Ride safely,
Louis

Stealership has 09 demo fleet in next week (7/28 - 8/2). I'll get plenty of pictures Monday and post them along with my impression of the SERG and possibly the SE Ultra.

It's the "cush drive" rubber isolated rear sprockets they're using now on touring bikes to hide some of the HD feeling that current HD riders have complained about. They should just put them folks on an ole shovel demo ride. They'll realize how smooth these rubber mounts are already.  Those cush mounts belong on Jap bikes where they originated! They keep isolating things on these bikes and you won't even know you're riding anymore!!! ;)

It's a pulse dampener to smooth out the ride.  Stock on 08, fits an 07 and built in on 09.  There are several threads here about the guys with 07s who added them.  I have one and like it.  It's real smooth at low speeds now.  It was quite jerky in parking lots before.

The Isolated Drive System became standard on the '08's. It is a must have for your bike.

Isolated Drive System Sprocket Kit

Introduced on the '08 Touring models, the Isolated Drive System improves rider comfort and ride quality by dampening the mechanical noise and vibration caused by the engine's torque pulses. The rubber compensation elements in the sprocket act like a cushion, absorbing the power pulses from the engine. With the IDS installed, the motorcycle feels more refined, and is quieter while accelerating, shifting and cruising. Kit includes sprocket, compensator bowl, and installation hardware.

HeHe!!! Not so Charlie! I actually bought one after reading all about it on the internet (here)! When I took it out of the box I did this :nixweiss: So there it sits, still in the box. I've no desire to smooth out this bike any further. It rides like a dream already and wouldn't want it to morph into a GW! :P ;D ;D ;D ;)

Howie, if there's one thing in life I'm certain of, no bike you ever own will morph into a GW!  ;) :D The only bad thing about the cush drive is that it's butt ugly.  But beings it's covered by hard bags on both of my rides, I don't mind. :nixweiss:
