Default Just Arrived
My '08 Ultra just arrived..My wife thought I'd be sad to see my Suzuki 800 leave...Not even close. Can't believe this machine. Tempted to head to Port Dover, but too much salt on the road still.

So excited, not even sure what to type...can't type. Lots of reading. First Harley..sorry for the babbling...Just had to tell someone about my new ride

Your gonna love it....I got about 1200 miles on my 08 UC before I had to put it into winter storage (about 2 months ago), I'm really getting the itch for a ride, but winter isn't anywhere near over.

Dude! Congrats!

Post some pix as soon as you can. Check to see if they'll deliver it to you. Many shops will do it for free within a reasonable distance.

Welcome to the family!
