Default Just Thanks!
This note is to thank you all for unknowingly helping me make one of the great decisions in my life. After 40 years of mostly riding bikes from an island country it was time for a change. I did research on this site for over four months before making a decision. RKC...Ultra...RKC...Ultra. The the little lady and I, on your advice to others, rented them both. Momma wanted the recliner! Heat, frame, wheels, 08/09, what to do? We went with the 09 Ultra. Really good call, what an amazing machine! In my first five hundred miles I've fallen in love with this 900lb Black Pearl Gorilla! Now I understand why that redneck fella had all those bugs in his teeth....I simply can't stop smiling when I'm on this bike. Y'all take care and thanks a million!
