Default Back on the road after almost 5 years

So after almost 5 years my beloved Ultra is heading back on the road. HUGE thanks to t150vej for a TON of help. Not only responding to texts and emails, but for actually driving down to my house to help me get the tranny back together. The guy is amazing! Its so cool to be able to connect with someone on a forum who is willing to go out and help like that and my hope is I can pay it forward at some point.

I'm pretty proud of the sissy bar as I welded it up myself. My wife thinks I'm trying to impale her but I promised she wouldn't need to worry much until I add a new cam....lol

Nice, it's good to see that there are still people out here who like to help others without expecting something in return, it's very rare.

Ride safe!

Glad your back on the road!

Yes, t150vej is a heck of a good guy, and his knowledge along with his willingness to share that knowledge is incredible! He's truly an asset to the forum!

Bike looks good, enjoy!!
