Im 34 and ride a 2014 H-D Ultra (Classic). I have no regrets or interests in going fast honestly. I'd rather cruise at a slow speed and take in the scenery and enjoy the ride.

Norm Cote Nothing sings like those triple cylinder motors. Totally different sound. I've had 3 triumphs and 4 harleys Rode a Rocket III but have yet to own one.... such a sweet bike. A 2000 sprint st with the 955i triple is what started my love for Triumph. Then a 2001 Harley Night Train with the flat black paint started the Harley bug around 2010. Two totally different beasts but both have their own grin factor. With So many great bikes over the past couple of decades shopping for the next bike is very time consuming. Ride on brothers

[@revfree]

I had a Road King, was looking for a little more comfort and wind protection. Loved the Street Glides but you get so much more with an Ultra for the money! I'm currently 38 and so I am more of a gen X but I think the Ultra is very cool looking, and very comfortable. I don't understand why so many people dismiss the Ultra as an "old guy's bike" because when you ride one you can't wipe the smile off your face! Also, I love the bible verses. Thank you for standing tall and spreading the Good News.

[@seanbutler2291]

Jonathan Hickory its an old man bike no power, shitty handling, heavy. If u like the bike thats great, but i guarantee you can find a better looking, better running, more powerful, and more comfortable touring machine elsewhere, and save probably 10+k and not be enslaved for 10 years on payments

[@randyhutchinson9910]

Jonathan Hickory EXACTLY

[@pinkiewerewolf]

Jonathan Hickory, my first Harley was when I was in my 20's and it was an Ultra Classic. Everyone said i bought an old man's bike. This sexy Heritage Classic came into the shop and my dealer gave me what I paid for the Ultra in trade for the Heritage. other than the appearance of the bike it was a mistake. I'm 53 now and on a 2017 Ultra Classic with the M8 engine, it does everything you could want a Harley to do on public highways. I routinely ride 500 mile days no sweat. I guess a young guy could call me an old guy these days but I dig my Ultra and have no plans to ever get rid of it.

[@usmcvet0313]

Really cool bike. Except for all the skulls. I bought a beautiful 2006 Sportster 1200 Low, and it had the same thing. Covered up in those damn Willie G. skulls. It cost me almost $300 in parts to get rid of all of them. Not all Harley riders are into the skulls and death thing. I would actually like to have an XR1200, but they are few and far between and very expensive. To have that many miles on it, that bike must have had a few cam chain/tensioner replacements.

Sean, just by looking at the gauges (on the right), I can see that this Twin Cam 88 has had the cam chain tensioner problem solved. Yep, the oil pressure is up at 30 psi or so at idle and 65 psi at 40 mph, that tells me the oil pump has been upgraded along with the cam plate to hydraulic tensioners!! It probably has adjustable push rods and I bet it has had the lifters replaced at about 40,000 miles or so. Nice bike, send it to me for my birthday, I don't have 7 bikes in the garage, only 4 and a Road King CVO 103 cu in and a Softail Heritage Springer 80 cu EVO and a Triumph Thunderbird 1600 ABS and they don't count. I will replace my Goldwing with this one if you send it for my birthday... :-) Oh you forgot something else us old guys have figured out. I am old and on Social Security. California does NOT tax Social Security.... I figure that is worth something!

[@gregorytimmons4777]

I wouldn't know the difference between an Electra Glide, Road King, Ultra Classic, Tour Glide, Wide Glide etc. I know enough to know that there are many models, a few different engine types and sizes, traditional twin shock or soft tail and a bunch over other models like Dyna, Night Train etc. but as near as i can tell it's mainly different combinations of parts. Hell, i get confused when Moto Guzzi has 4 different variations of their California Special in one year. All i know is that my Cali Stone is the strippo bargain basement special.

brakes940 if you can ride a sport bike all day without pain, then you’re probably younger, in great shape, and have no major ailments. Good for you. Some of us are getting older and are slightly worse for the wear. If I rode a sport bike for 3 hours I’d be staying in bed past noon the next day. Hope you never get a bad back, man.

And when I have they're uncomfortable without the injuries. The high casualty rates and incident rates are with sport bike riders. Stats don't lie. Neglecte for speed cause significant issues and unfortunately death. Bless those who have lost their lives doing what they love but safety on roads are always a priority. If you wish to test yourself use a track.

The new Milwaukee 8 has been everything it was promised to be. All of this said, we will probably get a smaller bike scooting to from work. If you think that 2005 is comfortable and runs well, ride one of the new Ultras with the new suspension and geometry.

Does it stir anything in my soul? Not really.

[@Tyler2Wheel]

I went from a Guzz V7, to Concours 14 to a C90 and now considering an Ultra Classic or Goldwing, I wanna ride for days!

I bought a Dyna, simply because it ticked all my boxes. I started on a sport bike (albeit, a Harley - Buell XB-9), and also have a Yamaha UJM, but I wanted a bigger cruiser that still handled decently and was air cooled. So, that led me to a 2010 Triumph Thunderbird, and a 2009 Harley Fat Bob. On paper, they're nearly identical. Similar sized engines, similar wheelbase, trail, weight, etc. For all intents and purposes, they are the same bike, painted with a different brush. These two were even the same price, more or less. What got me to the Harley over the (probably superior) triumph is that you can buy Harley parts literally everywhere, whereas the nearest Triumph dealer is an hour away, and everything else would need to be ordered online. And before you start talking Asian bikes, I rode a couple, and they felt plasticky and cheap. There's a reason they're half the price of the two I was looking at... All that said, I wouldn't ever buy a 1st generation Twin-Cam Harley. Never know when they're going to grenade their spring tensioned chain tensioners and lunch the motor.

[@mynameiswrm]

30 y/o and riding a '13 ultra limited low. I'm normally a street glide guy but I wouldn't change a thing.

[@usmcvet0313]

I'm 29, and ride a '11 Road King. Touring bikes are where it's at.

[@leeshepherd8486]

Here i am in 2024 looking at this exact 2005 bike

[@keith221191]

29 almost 30 with a 2009 Ultra Classic i choose cruise and comfort over 120+mph bikes.

[@randyhutchinson9910]

another cool thing about older Harley Davidson motorcycles, is a 3.5 gallon gas tank, you can go over a hundred and forty miles on, then stop for fuel & be comfortable, other bikes beat me up

[@kylemoore9626]

My first big bike was a street glide, now I’m on a brand new road glide, HD 4 Eva!

[@FastSloW-qt8xf]

Is the road glide the one with the fixed fairing? And if so how do you like it vrs thr streetglide

[@thevigils6386]

Im 29 and ride a 2009 dyna. Best bike i have ever owned. Younger riders really should give harleys and other cruiser type motorcycles a chance.

[@Ebbeebbeee]

Mad facts im 20 and I'm gonna trade in my dyna street Bob for one, or a street glide, I can get a sportbike for speed and handling, and I'll get a HD for daily riding and enjoyment

[@walcott423]

Im 33, i ride an FXDF and about twice a week i feel like i should also have a tourer. All my brothers have these bad boys and they love them. Theybget better gas mileage than me, get to bring things along with them, abd their bike doesnt weigh much more and isnt any slower than mine.

[@pavelmullo244]

Forgot to mention that mostly this type of bike were kept in garage and have perfect service history because the previous owner could afford it.

[@JohnnyRebKy]

I’m 36 and definitely ready for a Ultra. I wouldn’t be caught dead on a fairing bike just a few years ago. After riding a ultra last week I have totally changed my mind. Plus I would rather have the ultra and strip it down for street glide look and have the tour pack for trips. Everyone wants a street glide but I like the ultra triple lights and the lowers . So my next bike is definitely a ultra!

[@boarder989]

Very cool man. That bike is so much nicer than the newer Harley's especially with all the electronics they have now!

[@Hathorr1067]

'Fly by wire' just takes the fun out of it all.

[@grren1782]

I'm surprised the street glide doesn't get more attention. If I got a touring bike it would be a road glide or Street glide,

[@LinuxGalore]

all the millennial I see are riding (other than sports bikes) Indian Scouts, Kawasaki Z900RS or a custom bobber.

[@randyhutchinson9910]

Richard Neal sorry bout yer luck

[@JSAFIXIT]

These ultra classics are just too big for me. They do ride nice and out on the freeway they are solid. I've ridden an older goldwing, that was nice too, felt much lighter. I personally prefer low and long muscle bikes. Should be picking up a 2014 Victory Hammer within a few weeks here. Plenty of power, but still can just lope along the backroads and escape.
