Adding on accessories to the bike is just like the tattoos. Never stops until you maxed out. Know it from my experience on the Sporty 240. Too much chrome and makes my bike look really dull, LOL.

BTW, Enjoy the Ultra as much as I do.

Ride safe,

Thorey

Looks nice. I've been thinking about adding the Air Wing Rack to my Ultra.

I get a standing discount at my HD Dealer of 15%.

Yes it has only just begun!

$8500? What did you buy?

I bought my Ultra Classic new in 2005. Besides maintenance and new tires, the only things I've bought are a Garmin GPS, slip-on touring pipes and highway pegs, all for less than $700. My money is spent on road trips and the kid's college education.

Cool bike, but I spent that before the dealer even got my bike from the factory. TourPack, V&H, True Duals, Sundowner, Adjustable backrest, black front end and engine gaurd, XM radio, and a few other items. Last winter another $8k or more in paint, brakes, powder coating. This winter maybe another $5k for wheels, lights, and Wild1 Bars, it never ends!!
