2011 Harley Davidson Roadglide Only 1750 Miles on 2040-motos

This RG carries the Ultra moniker that adds accessories usually reserved for the top of the line machines. Amenities included with Ultra designated RG include lower fairings attached to the engine guard, Tour-Pak trunk with audio, CB radio, cruise control, intercom, and mid-frame air deflectors.

Perhaps the biggest bonus going for the FLTRU (the U is for Ultra) is the addition of the PowerPak setup. The PowerPak is the triple goody bag of 103ci (1690cc) motor, ABS brake system, and the hands-free fob Smart Security System. There is no option to get the RG Ultra without the PowerPak. It's a great value direct from the factory as equipping other eligible models with these three options would set you back $1,995, or $1,195 for just the security package plus ABS.

Cockpit and Seating

Spacious and comfortable are the first two adjectives that come to mind when first throwing a leg over this machine. Since the bars and fork need to swing within the fairing the windscreen, gauges, and radio are further away from the rider than on an EG.

Within the inner fairing lies the speedometer with multiple trip functions, tachometer, and gauges for fuel, oil pressure, ambient temperature, and battery voltage, along with the audio head unit and speakers. Surprisingly, there's even an old school, 12V, cigarette lighter-smoke 'em if ya got 'em! It can also be used for other reasons, like charging a cell phone. ,

Being a Touring bike comfort is important and the new two-up seat fits the bill with a shape that improves reach to the ground. With sitting just over 27 inches off the ground it is easy to sit flat-footed while stopped. An added feature is increased lower back support that cradles you in the seat. Passenger accommodations are roomy and the Tour-Pak provides a built in backrest with wrap-around armrests. Additionally, the passenger has roomy floorboards to rest their feet.

Audio and Electronics

Cruise control is a nice feature to have during the long haul. With nicely integrated, intuitive controls under the right handgrip it's possible to engage/disengage the cruise, and alter your speed without taking your eyes off the road. The system is amongst the best in the motorcycle world and works flawlessly combined with the Electronic Throttle Control in H-D parlance. Otherwise known as fly- or ride-by-wire, there are no throttle cables to control the air and gas into the motor. A sophisticated computer controls all aspects of gas mixing via a motor in the throttle body through the magic of electrical wires as you twist the grip.

Under both grips are also the controls for the harman/kardon Advanced Audio system with AM/FM, CD, and mp3/AUX, intercom and CB capabilities. 80 total watts of power are distributed to four speakers: two within the fairing and another pair mounted to the sides of the Tour-Pak. Independent control of bass/treble, fade, balance, and speed-specific volume control is easy to adjust. Passenger audio controls mounted to the Tour-Pak also. Even at highway speeds with helmet the audio is easily heard and sounds darn good.

Harman/kardon is renowned for its high-quality audio components and the tried and true h/k H-D system does not disappoint. With the auxiliary input on the front of the radio it's easy to plug in any mp3 device. Road surface and bumps had no effect on playing CD's.

Storage

One of the biggest selling points of a bagger is how much stuff can you pack on/into it; To start off with, the, RG Ultra has hard, locking saddlebags, a spacious King Tour-Pak, as well as storage in the adjustable-vented lowers and two convenient compartments on either side of the fairing. In this case Ultra definitely stands for capacity. Best of all it is usable capacity. Other brands lay claim to (mathematically) have more storage space, but on H-D Touring rigs its space that can easily and safely hold gear. The top-loading saddlebags keep your gear dry, safe, and accessible while on the road or commuting. On the safety front, the Tour-Pak features wraparound tail/brake lights.

Motor and Transmission

At the heart of the new RG Ultra is the 103ci big bore Twin Cam motor that's more than capable of fast launches as well as uphill passing. The black powder coated engine with chrome accents has plenty of real-world torque thanks in part to its gearing. Like all Big-Twins, motor power is transmitted to the rear wheel via the Six-speed Cruise Drive transmission operated by a light-pull, mechanically actuated clutch. A lower down tube-mounted oil cooler additionally helps keep the air-cooled motor happy.

Electronic fuel injection brings the motor to life as expelled hydrocarbons exit via the
True Dual 4â€� Rinehart Exhaust System culminating in tapered mufflers hugging each side of the beefy swing arm. For a HD, the Rinehart exhaust are the best sounding pipes on the market, not to mention the increased horsepower. 

Chassis, Suspension, Brakes

Felt vibration is kept to a minimum through the rubber mounted attachment of the motor to the frame. A four-point motor mount system (including the transmission) reduces rider fatigue during the long haul. The two-piece frame is suspended with twin, air-adjustable shocks in the back and a conventional, non-adjustable fork with triple-circuit damping. Suspension feel is plush yet a bit soft for spirited riding; the front end is particularly under sprung, diving under heavy braking and damping is average. This isn't necessarily a knock on the handling as the bike is a luxury tourer, not a sport-designed machine. The RG Ultra weighs in at a claimed 888 pounds yet rides like a much lighter bike.

Out back, the rear shocks do an adequate job of soaking up the bumps while still giving the road-feel back to the rider. Adjustable from 0 to 50 psi via a hand air pump the shocks can be adjusted for load and riding style, I always pump mine up to the max, as I feel there's usually too much weight towards the rear, especially when packed with gear and riding two-up.

Braking is amazing thanks to the triple disc setup and four-piston calipers. Feel through the brake lever is smooth and linear allowing good modulation of the front brakes. When the situation dictates and maximum stopping is needed the ABS system kicks in and hauls the bike down fast. This feature is especially nice when riding in the rain. Having ABS gives riders a chance to focus on getting out of a hairy situation and not have to worry about sliding either tire from a lockup. When the passive ABS activates there is a gentle pulsation transmitted through the brake lever(s). In addition, there is no linked braking so, for example, if the rear brake is stomped and the ABS comes on the front brakes are unaffected.

On the Road

Harley gave the people what they wanted in this ride and delivered the goods for the touring enthusiast. Riding the RG Ultra is a luxurious endeavor and begs you to want to get out on the open road. I'll reiterate plush and comfortable and throw in utilitarian at the same time. Whether your idea of a great ride is a Sunday putt around suburbia, the grid of the city or taking a vacation this motorcycle can do it all. With six gallons of onboard fuel it's easy to cover more than 200 miles between stops.

Ground clearance and lean angle is more than adequate for most riders. Even when railing on the floorboards, the bike maintains stability and predictability. The Dunlop Multi-Tread tires gripped the road well whether the conditions were cold and/or rainy.
