ultimate comfort

Bought the motorcycle in Nov. and rode,weather permitting,all winter with temperatures 20's & 30's F.The front lowers and fairing air deflectors are fantastic at keeping the cold air away from the rider.The 103 supplies plenty of power which gives smooth,crisp acceleration with or without a pass...enger even on a steep grade from a stop.The six speed transmission shifts fluidly and makes the ride on highways relaxing while the engine purr's effortlessly along. The center of gravity is low which makes balance and handling superb.Braking is instantly reactive and has no problem stopping the nearly 900 lbs.The seat is quite comfortable and after a long ride there is no discomfort.If you get the ultra classic glide I suggest a driver backrest.It will increase yor comfort tenfold.So far not a hitch with this motorcycle.It has been tremendous.

2012 Ultra Classic

This is my 4th Electra Glide in 25 years. The 2012 is the best handling, most reliable, nimble and all around best motorcycle I have owned to date. ABS is tops! 103 is great. Fit and finish are excellent . The sound is reasonable. The heat output is a little much with the lowers on on a hot day. Rem...ove the lowers during the summer. Overall a great motorcycle.Try one you'll buy one! Read Full Review

Transmission noise 2012 Electra Glide Ultra Classic 103.

When I bought the bike last year I asked why the transmission was so loud when shifting gears. The dealer said it was normal and that they all do it. If the tranny goes it will be due to the violent banging when shifting. This is my second electra glide, I rode my last one twenty years. A friend tol...d me to change from synthetic tranny oil to regular Red Line. I will try that before the gears fly out on the ground. Read Full Review

Un Balanced

I bought a 2012 Ultra classic brand new. After owning several Harley Davidson Bikes, I found that this bike has a higher center of gravity and with 2 people on it, I found that it is prone to falling over. Does anyone else have this problem? Please contact me at [email protected] if you have any inf...ormation to share. Read Full Review

Bust or Boom

I like everything about the bike except the wobbly froint end and which they addressed in the 2014 models with the heavier steering head and front end. Other than that issue its abeen a great bike. HAven't really put her to a test yet with only 10,000 miles on the odometer. Read Full Review
