Default Well I went and did it
Dropped by the local dealer and I will be trading in my 07 RK for an 07 Ultra in vivd black. Taking most of my chrome and bits off the RK and will be putting it on the new ride. I'll shoot some pics after I get her all set up.

Good for you, I've only had my 09 UC for a few weeks and traded an 04 RK Peace Officers Special that I bought new from the same dealer. I didn't think there was anything better then came the Ultra, it's great and your going to be a happy man.

Mr. Bill......

I took it for a spin and that was all she wrote. I do have one question, the dealership lists it as having Brembo brakes. I was not aware that was an option on 07 model's, or am I missing something?

Congrats! You're gonna love it. Especially since you're already used to all the 07 nuances!
Brembo's on 07's with ABS maybe?

Enjoy!
LOL! I looked at buying all the goods for my bike including the things you listed above and also new bars and a new seat as I am only 5'9" which makes the stock bars a little out of my comfort zone for reach. I figured instead of expending the dollars towards those items it was easier to buy myself out of my current bike payment and step it up. I'm already getting flack from my riding homies. They tell me I have purchased the old mans bike! I'm fine with that as I am the oldest in my group ;-)

Thanks for all the words of congrats.

Ride safe everyone!
