If you have to ask....... Think about it. And then ask yourself are you up to it?

You ask if you're making the right choice this being your first Harley, well that depends on your riding experience and the type of bikes you've ridden in the past. If you're used to lighter smaller bikes, then the ultra is going to take some getting used to, it's a heavy bike that's somewhat top heavy and it can be a little tricky to handle in stop and go traffic especially if you have a passenger on back. These types of bikes however are great on the highway which is what they're made for. Congrats on your new bike, I hope you enjoy it.

No you're not, you should be buying a RoadKing.

Congrats! If you like the bike and think you will enjoy it, you are making the right choice. You are the one that has to like it, not any of us.

Is this a trick question? We don't know anything about you?
