riding the Glide

Ken
Just got back from dealer...was thinking road king...but glide was so much nicer for another $1000
It,s black like yours...can you tell me if 20k out door is in the ball park for price?

Thanks ken
I'm going tomorrow to see if I can get it out door with cruise of 20k
Another dealer was a bit higher but offered the first service free.
Not sure what that's worth?
I didn't think I wanted black but yours looked so nice
I want black!
I'll let you know
Hap

Nice, real nice. I traded my buddy my 2011 Multistrada for his Glide for a few miles and was pleasantly surprised, I would have liked to put a few hours on it to see how long term was.

I really enjoy reading your posts, you have such a positive up beat outlook, totally infectious

Agreed!

blessing your bike - a very good idea. Every time I get a new ride, I take it asap to a quiet place I know, and pray over it. Give it back to God, for His purposes.

NICE. Ultras are awesome.
One suggestion however.....get a set of color matched fairing lowers. They are superior to the fabric ones. They do a better job and they're vented so you don't need to remove 'em when it gets warm out. You just cannot beat them when it rains. Best thing I ever did to my Road King; well, the second best thing after mods to make it go like it ought to have from the factory.

Lava red is the fastest color, though.

Hey Ken, congrats on the bike. I bought an '11 in June of that year, wonderful bike. Been from Idaho to North Carolina and Wisconsin to Southern California. Ride safe!

I like reading your post, you look like you're having a blast on your new bike. BTW I think the Glide is a nice bike to ride too.

please

I just picked up a new Ultra limited and couldn't be happier. It is my third bike so it will be the fair weather Caddy for me and the wife to take some long trips!

Great record keeping, Ken.

I've tried to keep accurate mpg tallies...but then I miss a tank and I say, ahh, forget it...and then a few months later I'll start again.

41 average sounds about right. It's easy to remember the good mpg days and ignore the lousy ones.

I swear that when I went synthetic motor oils I bumped up an mpg or so on my average. Put some fancy high dollar spark plugs in too. Other than that, I'm all stock as same engine on yours...but Road Glide ultra.
