If I was just wanting to spend money to stay ahead or have the best I might be looking at a new Ultra Limited or Roadmaster.

Hey did I see that correctly on HD website? The HD RG Special 114 is "chain" drive? It is a sharp looking bike. I love my shaft drive. You can take him Push, I know you can. Be safe firs and foremost.

LOL! Harkon you're killing me. That's such a great reference.

I used to tell family and friends that my X was set up to be a Lazy Boy. By the time I finished with it I was able to recline against the backrest with the risers and bars making the reach easy. The Ultimate Big Boy seat was plush on my tush and I didn't experience any numb butt. Very comfortable. I don't ride dirt bikes and don't expect or want my cruiser to feel like one. I'm with you all the way on this one Hark.

No, primary drive is chain. Final drive is a belt. Same with all of the Softails and Touring bikes I believe.

We are talking about basically 16 year old technology with the VTX compared with state of the art 2019 technology Harley M-8 engines. So I think the VTX is still doing a hell of a job. Once Harley went to liquid cool engines I was sure that there horse power would go up. The newer Harley engines are a lot smoother than Harleys of old.
With Indian pushing hard with their bikes with bigger 122 ci engines and horse power, Harley had to do some thing to stay even

You can say anything stupid. It's the internet. No real consequences for YOU.

Not much in there that is "low cost". They were, pretty much, all at the top of their respective price scales. M109R, perhaps, excepted. Surely there is better value in a fast bike. The MT-09 comes to mind (FJ-09) before that. Really quick. Far less expensive than almost anything else on that list. Just sayin'.
