Default Rivco hitches?

I have been looking for a hitch for my 2012 Ultra. I had kinda settled on the Rivco because I likes the way they attatched and because they had a package deal with a wiring harness. I guess this is a popular choise because everyone seems to be sold out. Even Rivco has them on back order. I am looking at hitchdoc and bushtec as well. Anyone know where I can buy a Rivco hitch? Also if anyone has experience with these hitches and can give any advice on them. I have read all the posts and am just wondering about stability in mounting the hitch.

I have the Hitchdoc reciever hitch on my 2012 Ultra Limited. Pulled my trailer fully loaded to Americade (330 mi. each way) with no issues what so ever. Also like that it is pretty much un-noticable with the coupler out and the plug installed. Installation was very easy and it can be taken apart for tire removal very easily.

What he said! Used a HitchDoc on our '02 for over 90K and now on our '12 we've got close to 6,000 pulling miles.
