Default 2nd week new 08 Ultra Firefighter

&nbsp\\; Well 2nd week and 500 miles in rain/sunshine/cold with new Ultra Classic Firefighter edition.(total 6) Powerful,smooth. [sm=smiley4.gif]Now its very dirty and I am dreading the enjoyment of cleaning all of that chrome.[sm=bangbang.gif] Vance Hines bigshot duals, SC air cleaner, Fuel pak all working great. Very loud.
5'6" had low profile shocks installed and going to have seat reworked by Mean Cycle Service as reccomended by you fine people in this forum. (July 21 appointment)
&nbsp\\; Need to relearn idle at times by cycling ignition as informed to by you knowledgable peolple in this forum. Fork lock difficult to engage. Rides like my couch down the rode even at 100! (don't tell my wife)!
&nbsp\\;Going to post pictures as soon as I figure out how and find wife's digital camera.
&nbsp\\; Highland Haley Davidson in Somerset,PA. is my dealer and they are great![sm=usa.gif]
