Default Just saying hello.

Just dropping in to say hello. I've been over on the Evo section for years, but this past week I decided to upgrade and picked up a new to me 2010 Ultra Classic. I think the color is two tone Sunglo Red. 21,000 miles on it. I've had shovels and Evo for years but never one of the newer bikes. I must say I am impressed with it. Handles great and I love that 6th gear. I've only had a chance to ride it about 150 miles so far, but I love the way it handles. I'm sure once I've had a chance to play with it a little, I'll have some questions for you guys. I decided to keep my ole Evo Ultra Classic. It's got a lot of miles on it but still runs. Couldn't sell it for much though, being 19 years old, so I'll just hang on to it.

I stayed on my 95 FLHTC to 2010 when I bought an 09 FLHTC

at that point the bikes were advanced enough to make a change.

the efi was sorted out, the chassis better...and the 6 gal tank is a nice touch

and how about them brakes?

if you have abs you'll appreciate it the next time you ride a dirt road or slippy stuff

Yep, it does have abs. My wife and I rode a few miles up the Natchez Trace Parkway on it last week and I can't get over how smoooooth it is! She loves it too, so everybody's happy!
