With many around the world feeling a financial pinch of late, it came as a bit of a surprise to learn that Harley-Davidson's best-selling bike is the $21K Electra Glide Ultra Classic luxury-tourer, despite it being the most expensive model outside the Custom Vehicle Operations line. This shows that there are still many well-heeled touring types who want a high level of luxury from their loaded baggers.

The MoCo has responded to this demand with the new Electra Glide Ultra Limited, an upgraded model for 2010 that approaches CVO levels of opulence and finish details. Its centerpiece is a larger motor, a 103-inch Twin Cam formerly part of the CVO line that for 2010 is now exclusive to this model. CVOs currently receive the TC110 Screamin' Eagle engine. Harley says to expect a 10% bump in torque compared to the TC96. An oil cooler helps shed additional heat from the more powerful mill.

Prepare to be coddled. The existing Ultra Classic Electra Glide was already nicely equipped with luxuries like cruise control, an 80-watt Harman/Kardon audio system (with CD, MP3, CB, intercom), adjustable wind deflectors and vented fairing lowers. Along with all those accoutrements, the new Limited adds a bevy of standard equipment. Heated grips with six power levels extend the riding season, Brembo triple-disc anti-lock brakes provide safety, and a self-arming security system thwarts thieves.
