WOW! An 03 Ultra with a 130,000 miles on it, he must be homeless.. I have an 03 Ultra and I thought I was doing good with the 41,000 I have on it. I will be retired next year, so I will push to catch up with him (smiling)... A friend of my has an 02 Ultra, he bought 5 months before I bought my 03 and he has 82,000 on it. Change the oil, do the regular maintenace and I think the motors will run for a long while.
