Being you are so open minded, just send me the $$$$$, and I will get you one.
Hope ya like it.

I think you are doing the wisest thing possible in riding each. I have seen on here where guys will buy before riding and that just makes no sense to me. I came from an Electra Glide to an Electra Glide, and still rode the 12 before purchasing. Thats allot of money to gamble with.

i like the ultra also. love the extra room in the tour pac. real handy if you need to lock things up or just carry chit around. i commute on mine and easy to pack the lunch, take rain gear, pack extra liners for different conditions. ride them both but don't discount the geezer glide. you can always make the trunk removable. just saying.

The Ultra give you lowers, tour pack, communications, and maybe a few other things.

All of those can be added to the '14 SGS. What can't be added to the Ultra is the nav/audio system, linked brakes, better front suspension, new style saddlebags.

Your money....your choice. I'd take the '14 SGS and add things as I see the need. Build your own Ultra on a better platform.

Get the ultra and do the quick tour pak disconnect setup. I have it setup on my 09 ultra and it gives me the best of both bikes.
