Default ===All the complaining about Rushmores ===

I guess I'm tired of all the complaining, and negative comments about the new Rushmore Bikes. I have a 14 Limited that has 18,000 miles on it, and was 2 years old last month. Aside from a couple of recalls, my ride has been trouble free. Yes, a glitch now and then on the Boom Box, but I still love my bike, love the ride, love the engine sound, the mpg, and the power too. I've been riding 40 years, many HD bikes, many Metrics, and many miles, and it's the best Harley I've owned to date.


I guess I just want to hear some positive comments about your Rushmore that you have. Tired of only hearing about the negatives.


Thanks,
Dom

If you don't want to listen to complaining, you will have to stay off the internet.

People will complain about anything and everything. Give em $100 bill and they will bitch about not having change for it.

Boy, ain't that the truth!

Not a single issue with my '15 Limited. Just over a year and 12,000 miles.

I've had two Rushmore bikes. NEVER had a single problem with them!

The 2017 models will be out shortly and if there is a major engine change like it is rumored then people will complain about how it does or doesn't quite run, sound or feel like the Rushmores.

Some people are content to be miserable. They will find fault with anything and everything.

Glad you are enjoying your bike and there has been nothing to make you want to sell it for an older, newer or more metric bike.

Haven't heard so many negatives?
What is it that you are referring to?

Here ya go, we are never satisfied. Iv 30,000 on 14 limited and loved every mile. Had a few issues and they were resolved Quickly. These bikes are badazz I can ride across town or across country, the perfect allaround bike. hell you can ride it like a dirt bike if need be or 50 miles or gravel road between Rock Springs Wy and Maybell Co. I love the bike she's a beautiful Harley that can be modified and coustomsied to fit you personality like no other bike out there!

Early this year (2016) I found myself in the market for a new (to me) bike. I had originally targeted a used 2011-2013 Ultra Classic. In January I posted a thread on this forum asking what the deal was with the Rushmore bikes because I had never seen a redesign that less had been written about. "Are they that good or that bad"? Anyone that spends any time on internet forums knows that there is always some negative reaction to any topic. Haters going to hate. I received 51 responses. All positive. All said "Go buy one." I purchased a 2016 FLHTK. Very satisfied.

Not sure what complaining you are referring to.
