Well,
After some hesitation, I'm now a proud owner of a Red 2015 Ultra LTD. It's now in my garage as I write this. I've a couple more items to wait on from the dealer . . . headset, stage one parts, manuals and etc. I'll probably do the break in tonight . . . should be fun. There are a couple roads around town that will do nicely at nighttime. Still trying to get used to all the buttons - for sure! The bikes been lowered an inch, which really makes a big difference for me. Although I still have some misgivings about giving up my FXDC, riding my Ultra seems to make those feelings just float away! Awesome bike . . . Wow - Harley did good.
Soon, it will be parts installation day . . . The FP3 and the DK breather kit are on the way . . . Here are a couple of pictures of the red beast in my garage.
Here's the beast! First touring bike I've ever had . . . very nice! Stilling getting used to how it rides.

Now I just have to master the heel shifter . . . a first for me!
She sure is a beaut. I personally love the heel shifter, it might take some time getting accustomed to it, but worth it IMO. Just remember when riding in parking lot speed the back brake is your friend.

No need to use the heel shifter, unless you want... I always remove mine... Love the color scheme, same as mine... Fantastic motorcycle you're going to enjoy it...
Best of luck. I love my 15 LTD. I'm still getting used to the buttons as well.
Just ordered tuner, pipes, mufflers and air cleaner. Hope they get here tomorrow.
