Excuse my ignorance but I've been on the MOCO's website and I'm not sure I found all the answers I'm looking for. So, if you folks don't mind, could I bother you for some quick info?
I'm looking at purchasing my first Hog and was wondering what the differences are between the UltraClassic and the Classic? I'm aware of the lowers, cruise control, CB, intercom, additional speakers, and tour pak lighting. What else am I missing? Thanks ahead of time.
I regularly ride with two buddies that wished they had spent the little extra an gone for the Ultra. I know two more that didn't also but they won't admit their mistake.
You pretty much covered all the differences. Now it depends on how many of those extras you really want to pay for. I have ownedseveral Classics andstill own one and it has everything on it that I need. I have no need for a CB or intercom and live in Florida so the lowers would never be on the bike and I can always add cruise and the soft luggage for a lot less than the cost difference between the 2 bikes. Different strokes for different folks. Decide on what your needs are and go for it. You want be dissapointed with either one.
