mmmm that 114 sounds like a beauty. I haven't done any research on it but I assume it's based on the new Milwaukee 8 design and so far the aftermarket support sucks. I want some Rinehart true duals for my road glide but they don't have them yet. And yes the new softail suspension is a fucking godsend. That new front fork designs also make slow speed maneuvering a fucking breeze compared to previous models. The new overhauls they're doing is what got me to trade in my 2014 Road King for the Road Glide.
I assume those numbers are at the wheel? The engine torque would be much higher I imagine. I've not heard too many horror stories about Harley telling people to fuck off due to aftermarket exhaust, intake or tunes. They only get snippy on internals like cams/lifters, etc.
I'm happy if you're happy. We have different riding styles. I'm slow and easy like mac that's cheesy
I honestly never had any issues with Dunlop whitewalls in wet weather but just like the stock dunlops they wore like shit. My wife loved them too on my Road King but I got tired of literally cleaning them every day after each commute. I ditched them on the next tire change.
All kidding aside I really like the direction Harley is going in. They're working on catching up technologically while keeping the classic cruiser look. I can dig that. All 3 of my bikes have been rock solid anyhow even with my Road King getting 60k miles in less than 2 years. I'll probably be trading my Road Glide in 2 years from now anyways because fuck it but yeah. I think you'll be happy. Plenty of displacement to play with if you're into turning her into a beast.
