RE: GW vs Ultra Classic
I will say his back seat is definatly bigger. Mine...especially with the backrest is pretty cramped. I'm not petite but not huge.
I bought a cooler to fit on the back seat. It's 12x12 square...thought it would fit no problem but it pushes the backrest forward. I throw it on his and it does fit with no problem. Considering moving the tour pak back farther for the dang cooler[&:]

pulled up at a restaurant, got off and walked in...sat down and somebody askes...."is that a Harley?" and Iproudly say "no."
this has happened several times because most ignorant people thinkall bikes are Harleys. That is great marketingnotgreat machine.

You might want to ask your wife what she thinks - mine said that if she wanted to be THAT comfortable we should take the car. She's right.She preferred the HD much to my surprise. She also said we can get a Wing when we're old ( 55 right now). I guessheart and soul means as much to her as it does to me. Also, people will walk rightpast a Wing as if it were invisible to get a look at your Hog. Pisses my Wing buddies off - makes me smile.

When I went to the Honda dealer, all he did was put down the Harley. ........Then, when I went toHD and talked to them they explained why they felt the UC was the best bike for me and its advantages of it over a GW.

You don't "get" why we own Harley's.

It's "Harleys", not "Harley's".
