Default Goodbye, all!

Goodby, All. My Ultra is gone. Too many problems, the bike is a lemon. Dealer bought it back from me. I've been tainted and will not seek another HD machine. Got my eye on a Concours 14. It'll look good in the stable with my '82 KZ1100 vintage scoot.

Shame, such an expensive bike with so many issues. I just couldn't take it anymore. Being laid up for a month at a time at a dealer isn't acceptable.

Anyway, if a moderator or admin can kindly erase me from the system at their convenience, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks, everyone be safe and ride safely.

Tom in Florida

Bye Tom! Have fun. Post some pics of your new scoot when you find what you are looking for.

I would rather spend half my time fixing my Harley than riding anything else. Good luck, hope you find that perfect machine that doesn't break on you.

Hey, Tom. Sorry your HD experience sucked. Good luck with whatever you get. Maybe give another HD a shot down the road. I think you'll be happy you did.
