I got a 2013 Fatboy for Christmas 2012. I put 9,600 miles on that bike In 12 months rode it in 18 different state went to a few Hog Rallies, ROT Rally, Sturgis, 110 Th in Milwaukee and JP Cycle Rally. Met a lot of great riders and my life has changed. I knew what I wanted with out ever riding a Touring bike I went and bought the 2014 Ultra Limited just last week I have only been able to put 65 miles on it so far as I am working In Iowa and it's cold here this time of year. I travel all year for my job and take my bike with me in a 28 foot enclosed trailer. Looking forward to more riding.
Just bought my first touring model. Tried to do it right by purchasing a new 2014 Ultra Classic Limited---vivid black. Traded in an 08 Road King Classic which was my first ever Harley. Bought it right after the divorce. YEP!! It did and she let me know about it. I'm 52 and riding high on my new ride.
It is so good to hear people whom have bought their first Harley Davidson touring motorcycle and enjoying the new found joy of going around all parts of the US touring.
Thanks to everyone who has shared their story on their new purchase.
Finally picked mine up Friday night and all I can say is wow. Got the '14 SGS and there is very little that needs to be done to it to make it absolutely perfect.
