"My wife let me..." Man that's a powerful statement, you know what they say..."when mama's happy, everybody's happy!" Good luck with your new ride.

congradulations on the new ride, I finally got 1000 miles on my new Ultra today, and I'm still smiling ear to ear everytime I get on it. No issues. Stuck one of the new fancy oil temp thingys in it that no one seems to like yesterday, rode 60 miles stopped 3 times to check it in different ride conditions. Hottest it got was 227. Have fun and ride safe.

Good for you. I, too, have to get the wife's approval on the big stuff. LOL At least I know she is trying to do her best to keep me out of trouble.
