Driving Report: Harley Ultra Classic E-Glide
If you are ready to get involved in the peculiarities of the seven and a half Zentner from Milwaukee, which is a whole new way of moving. That starts before the start, but polarizes the baroque look, and calls many jealous comment. However, such negative remarks lose more importance – to be hit by criticism, it needs a minimum of respect for the source – as soon as you swind yourself in the extraordinarily comfortable saddle.
Sofa on wheels
Cut for the figure created by many burgers of many North Americans, the stomps from the average Europeans with fascinating security. The same is also valid for the society – the casual guy would make some living room to honor. A stable, laterally explosive backrest ensures additional touch, while the feet rest on sturdy ride boards. Such carved, even largest distances lose their terror – even because of the driving style.
Easy Riding
Rasching is a lot of integrity wide, which leads to it with comforting 120 km / h through the country Cruist. That fits wonderfully for the engine, which shakes land stress tempo with 2200 turns from the sleeve. The new six-speed gearbox, Cruise Drive ‘- the corridors are inserted streets with the switch-on – does not wear its name for free, the gear ratio is in the last gear at 1: 1. Problematic is the only the search for idling.
In the shortest time you swing yourself, – without any what would be missing, – on a restrained driving style. You are eliminated, cool – stress-propelled contemporaries can happen on this Harley like a relaxation exercise on the recipe.
Sound not only from the engine
Very important: The Hi-Fi system of Harman / Kardon – the system with CD / MP3 player leaves hardly wishes. In addition, the fully equipped cockpit with nice details such as outdoor temperature display (!), Tanker or voltmeter. In addition, the tempomat, the radio-operated alarm system with immobilizer or the intercom are mentioned. Pure travel luxury So – up to 330 kilometers. So far you come with the amazingly small 18.9-liter tank and the moderate consumption of 5.7 liters great. This is reflected in view of the weight and enormous air resistance – from the front is the Harley like a wall in the wind – completely fine.

again and again

Apart from whether something makes sense: I would like to complete such tours with none of the previously possessed bikes (various BMW S, Japanese and Goldwings). It’s not just the myth, the incredibly comfortable and relaxed seating position through the narrow engine block and the steps make it possible!
Motor in the stand too restless
Who, like me every year several 1000 miles through the US, knows that the E-Glide is great for driving, but with the engine running, is very ‘getting used to the rubber-latched engine. I praise myself as a tourer the Heritage Classic. On CD player and tempomat I can still do without moped.
Harley-Davidson does not want everyone
Who does not like Harley-Davidson, who does not like them. And who she likes, he remains. Like me. I drove soulless Japanese before. Now I move a Night Rod Special. She is not perfect, but that does not matter to me. Peas counters should drive better Japanese. Anyway, I’m glad that not every Hinz and Kunz Harley drives.
Harley prices..

ABS as standard from model year 2008
From the model year 2008, the E-Glide Ultra is installed as standard. A immobilizer and alarm system is standard integrated in the Security System. An RFID transponder automatically activates the alarm system and immobilizer when you remove 5 m from the bike and vice versa.
Harley? No thank you!
After numerous BMWs I had fulfilled my dream and bought a low rider converdible. Mytos harley. The disillusionment soon came. No street position, boring acceleration, stainless screws etc.Etc. Colleagues had equipped with thicker Harleys and now, after 7 years, no one has more his iron block. We now drive Japanese without exception and are completely satisfied.
