Default Dunnit!
Swapped the White Ultra I ordered for a Black Cherry Ultra...will pick it up sometime next week...if patience is a virtue, I'm not very virtuous...

I'm not gonna change much at first, pegs, grips, freedom wings, cover, manuals, and the @#$%ing air temp gage swapped to the oil temp gage...hate that stupid
air temp POS..I've got a keychain with thermo...

Haven't settled on an exhaust system yet, I promised myself I would take the bike 1000 miles before I changed it...let's see how long that lasts..I fired it up sitting there,
and decided my lawnmower sounded better with only one cylinder....<LOL>


I am STOKED!

I know what you mean, zopi. My wife and I had His & Hers Sportys till I bought my RG. We traded her 883 and she took over my 05 XL 1200 C. Then we added pipes, A/C and rejetted the carb. I can't keep up with her any more, <G>
