Harley-davidson Road Glide Ultra
The Harley-davidson Road Glide Ultra has a top speed of 185 km/h, produces 93 hp and weighs 389 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
Le Road Glide Ultra a été introduit par Harley-Davidson en 2011 en tant que modèle de tourisme haut de gamme de la gamme Road Glide, qui se distingue par son carénage en forme de nez de requin monté sur le cadre qui réduit les mouvements de la tête à vitesse d'autoroute. Il est construit autour du moteur Milwaukee-Eight 114 à double refroidissement (introduit en 2017) et dispose d'une gamme complète d'équipements de tourisme, notamment un grand carénage, deux accoudoirs pour passagers et un système d'infodivertissement. Il est particulièrement remarquable pour les cyclistes de randonnée sur de longues distances pour ses caractéristiques de maniabilité stables grâce à son carénage fixe qui n'affecte pas la direction.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Strong Resale Value
The Road Glide Ultra consistently holds 70-80% of its value after 3 years, outperforming most touring competitors. Its loyal fanbase and brand prestige make it one of the safer big-ticket motorcycle investments.
Watch the Cam Chain
Milwaukee-Eight engines (2017+) improved greatly over the older Twin Cam, but pre-2017 models are known for cam chain tensioner wear that can become costly if ignored. Always request service records and ask specifically about cam tensioner replacement.
Shark Nose Fairing Advantage
Unlike the Road King or Street Glide, the Road Glide Ultra's frame-mounted fairing reduces head shake at highway speeds and dramatically cuts wind fatigue on long rides. It also houses a premium Boom! Box infotainment system with superior acoustics.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"The best American touring bike if you respect its weight."
$14,000-$24,000 usedThe Road Glide Ultra is genuinely impressive touring iron when it's running right, and that's the catch. These bikes carry real weight — pushing 900 pounds wet — so if you're not comfortable with that reality before you buy, walk away now. The frame-mounted fairing is the real differentiator here; it doesn't shake your eyeballs out at highway speeds like the fork-mounted touring bikes, and the infotainment system on 2015+ models is surprisingly usable once you stop fighting it. Buy one from 2017 onward if you can stretch the budget. The Milwaukee-Eight engine addressed most of the Milwaukee-Eight predecessor's heat-soaking complaints, and the suspension finally got serious attention. Pre-2017 Twin Cam examples are cheaper but come with well-documented compensator and primary chain tensioner issues — budget $800-1,200 for that work unless you enjoy surprises. Always check service records, inspect the frame for tip-over damage near the right lower fairing, and listen carefully at idle for primary rattle.
