What do the passengers say about the new frames

The wife loves the 2010 Ultra Limited rear seat. Unfortunately this is our first Harley so I can not compare it to the old frame. I can tell you in those rain cuts in the road in a corner this Ultra is MUCH stabler than our old Honda. It flexed all over the place. Night and day difference.

Wife says our 09 UC has a lot more vibration than out old 05 Fatboy. You would think it would be the other way around??

From a RKC to an EGC and both being older evo bikes my wife said she liked the SG best. 1st ride out on it she complained about the seat of course,but she said it feels more secure and stable in corners compared to the older bikes.

My wife basically the same thing about my 2011 RGU vs the 06 RG we traded.
My old bike was a 2006 FLHT and my wife could only ride about 25-30 miles at a time and had to get off and walk around a bit.
The new bike (2009 FLHTCU) she can ride about 50-70 miles at a time and doesn't cause her as much pain.
She has PAD in her legs and this causes really bad pain in her feet.
She also noticed that the saddlebag guard rails don't hit the back of her calfs like the 06 did.
So the decreased vibration and the frame lengthening on the 09 is very noticeable to my passenger.
I like the handling and the load carrying ability better than the 06 also.
We're pretty happy with it.
