My Ultra is gone, what to get next?

I sold her and watched my 07 Ultra leaving on a TRAILER a couple of weeks ago, what a sad site that was.

Now the debate is do I really want that V-Rod Night Rod Special?

Maybe I will just wait and see if anything different arrives in a 2012 model.

Decisions, aren't they fun!!!!!

I have heard the rumors of some great colors offered in 2012. I guess we will all have to wait and see.

Wow, that's a strange one. Going from an Ultra to a VROD. The VROD is a blast to ride, not very practical for touring or any 2 up riding though, but fast as hell.

What a drastic change. I couldnt' imagine doing that. As an Ultra owner I would love to ride a Vrod, but only on occasion.

2011 is probably a better year for colors (IMO) than 2012 is going to be. The Merlot is gone and so is the Root Beer.
I would be more concerned with the radio situation (if I actually rode bikes with radios). HD doesn't have enough components to have working radios in the 2012's due to the earthquake in Japan. They are considering several options- none of which are all that appealing.
If I had just sold an Ultra, I'd probably be looking at the Root Beer Limited as a replacement.
But I prefer the Road King (also currently available in that color).
Good luck with whatever you choose.

ultra gone

Convert an ultra and have a dual purpose scoot. I can put my tour-pak on in 5-minutes! I leave it off around town but, I love the goodies when my wife wants to go. Just my opinion...good luck.
