I'll admit it, I took a swig. 2017 HD Ultra Limited
Picked up this pretty baby last week. My intention was to be able to get my wife riding with me again. She just didn't seem comfortable on either the K or the R, so I'm going to give this one a try.

It's still stock on the exhaust, and it only has 12K miles. Purchased from original owner.

Original owner purchased new off showroom floor in '19, put 12K miles on it the 1st year, then Covid, followed by knee surgery so he didn't ride after that. Been setting for about 1-1/2.

Neighbor says he can hear me going down the street, but only if he's already awake. Doesn't wake him up.

The couches on the back of those are pretty comfy. A few years ago I ran out of gas about 8 miles from home. A Harley dude stopped and gave me a ride to my place and back to get a gallon tank of gas. I don't know why but he made a point of telling me that, aside from his son, I was the only guy who had ever ridden bitch on his HD. Laughing

We will see how her but-o-meter measures the ride.
I have read that some, like with BMW, have change the stock seat for something aftermarket for an even better experience.
So far my but-o-meter is in the green, but that may change as I ride it more.
