Ummm, I will volunteer to let you pay for some of the things I would like to do. Let me know, I'll send you my parts supply info so you can send them the necessary credit card info .............. Of course, I'll send you pics so you can see your accomplishments.

All good ideas... BUT, I test rode an '09 Ultra, nice, but not nice enough! And I would be happy to supply all of you with my credit card info but, darn it, I don't believe in them evil cards, don't have a single one! I guess I'll start in on the Sporty!
