Ultra Classic question
How much work and money is involved with making that whole tour pak/rear seat detachable? I am trying to decide which model to buy. Also does anyone know what is in store for 2009 with HD. I wanna know if I should hold out for 2009 model. Thanks, Mark

Don't waste your money on the quick detatch stuff, you won't want to take it off. I thought I wanted it too, untill I had the tourpack on the bike. Then I realized how much more storage I have, and how much easier it is to use the tour pack instead of the saddlebags.

If you want good information regarding what's coming in 2009 I would suggest you write to Willie G. Davidson at Harley Davidson Motor Company in Milwaukee WI. He might forward information after the dealer meeting. Or you can wait until after the dealer meeting and ask your local dealer. Everything you hear between now and the dealer meeting in July is unsubstantiated rumor.

RE: Ultra Classic question
Do those fairing lowers really do anything? I could get the model without the tour pak and add it if I need it.

I have a 2005 ultra and I love having 3 bikes in one. Have the touring pack, back rest, or go without anything. I put 4 disconnect plugs under the seat and a hidden antenna under the fairing and the hardest part of anything is removing the seat! I say go for it!
