Congrats on new Limited! Mine is a 2015 Limited with 23000 miles as of today without any problems. Great bike!

Thanks for all the replies.

I dropped the bike off for the 5000 mile service today. I rode a 2011 Limited, with 40,000 miles, home. That thing is a dog compared to mine. Mine has way more snap to it, so to speak. Riding a loaner let's me know buying the 16 was definitely a good move. Can't wait to get it back.

I love my 2014 Limited. It has been a sweet 24,378 mile ride so far!

Beautiful color combination. When I bought my 14 Vivid Black Ultra (4300 miles) there was an identical to yours Amber Whiskey/Vivid Black Limited sitting next to it that I almost bought. I went with the Ultra because it was much much cheaper. Figured I'd spend the extra $4500 on accessories.

I did test ride a 17 SGS and a new 16 RK before buying my Ultra. The M8 was nice but I didn't see nearly enough difference to justify the extra money.

The consensus I'm seeing in this thread is that changing my transmission to a different type of fluid will help soften the shifting clunk and make it easier to get into neutral. Guess I'll start searching the forum for fluid recommendations. I'm sure there's no shortage of those types of conversations.

I just couldn't do black again. I wanted it to look like a new bike was in my garage when I opened the door.....LOL.

HEY YOU STOLE MY BIKE!!! Ya, I'm still happy with the Amber Whiskey/Black after 4 years and > 30K miles...
I put on some Street Cannons and replaces the chrome gizmo under the headlight (Official HD part description...) with a Amber Whiskey Gizmo from a Street Glide Special. Just a few other things and it's right where I like it...
