Default No more FatBoy...
Hello, Ultra! Got it 2 weeks ago and took it to Dallas (450 miles one way, the long way) last weekend. After 1075 miles, I'm sold. Comfort, Cruise, Stowage, and 45 mpg. The FatBoy was cool but damn the Ultra is great for trips. Anyone consideringthe Ultra Classic, consider this 1 vote for.
