Default Got Room For One More?

Made a deal today on a leftover '08 Ultra (ABS), pick it up tommorrow. I've defected to the dark side. My Heritage was a great ride but time to move up. I only hope this new ride is as trouble free as my Heritage was. She never let us down. Will post a new signature when I get a chance.

Congrats on the new scoot. I did the same thing a couple weeks ago, except my trade was a Road King. Five minutes into the ride home, it hit me that I definitely made the right decision. I'm sure that will happen to you too!

I can see your smile from here and it's not even in the garage yet.

If you are not riding an Ultra, you are riding something less. I really enjoy mine as I am sure you will enjoy your's. Ride safe...
