    I bought my 2012 Ultra Ltd used in March of 2012 with less than 2K miles on the odometer. I now have 27K on it. I have made a couple weekend trips riding two-up and find the power very adequate for my style of riding. The only vibrations I have had come from the engine through the seat like every ...

  • neutral noise and rear brake vibration
    By  (I am an Owner) on Nov 07, 2012

    Bought the 2012 limited June first. After 800 miles the transmission begins to make a tapping noise when in neutral and the clutch out. At 6800 miles and many complaints, it has gotten worse. HD says both are normal. Tried to meet with factory rep. but they haven't set it up after four requests. ...

Has 8,000 miles on now and vibe has increased to very annoying & un-nerving in a quick stop. Dealer replaced ...

  • 2012 ULTRA LIMITED
    By  (I am an Owner) on Jul 30, 2012

    THE ULTRA LIMITED IS VERY SMOOTH RIDING AND HANDLES WELL. THE CAT IN THE EXHAUST CREATES A LOT OF HEAT AND HOLDS BACK THE 103 FULL POTENTIAL. THIS WAS THE WORSE MOVE HARLEY EVER MADE. WAS IT TO COMPLY WITH EPA OR GET YOU TO BUY MORE STUFF FROM HARLEY? LIKE A STAGE ONE KIT? BECAUSE FOR ANOTHER 1500 ...

  • Second one faster, smoother, and rides long
    By  (I am an Owner) on Feb 03, 2012

    Traded a 2011 limited 7800 miles in 6 months. I wanted a stage 1 upgrade, Hammock seat, Vance&Hine true duals with 3 1/2 Reinhart blck tip. and we were going to realflame the bike. 6000 to 6800 more all in. We brought a sunglow/merlow 2012 with the upgrade and no real flames. The limited is strong ...

This new bike has many improvements over the 93 however i did notice that when using the rear brake i feel a vibration ...
