Get the Ultra. I had the same decisions, glad I went with the Ultra. Better to have and not need than need and not have. You won't regret it.

The lowers are great in the winter. Cruise control is great on the long rides. The extra lights in the back make you more visible.

That's one of the reasons I started this thread to find out about the subtle differences such as this!&nbsp\\; I didn't realize there is additional lighting!&nbsp\\; Thanks TrentsHog!

Went from Road King standard with a Tour pack. Just not the same as the UltraClassic for the bells and whistles. Not to mention also its a CVO.
