Default Sold the Ultra for a 2010 Heritage Softail w/ PICS

Guys....I sold my '06 Ultra and bought a 2010 Flame Blue Pearl and Brilliant Silver Pearl 2010 Heritage Softail.

I was at my dealer to ask questions about a 2010 Heritage when the sales manager came over to us and said come see the new Heritage we just got in....well guys..it was love at first site!! I saw it as soon as it came 'out of the box" I sold the Ultra last week and was going to shop around when I saw this bike....
I will be stopping in, but I will start hanging out more in the Softail forum. Just want to thank everyone here who has help me with all my dumb a$$ questions when I had the Ultra!!!

As you can see in the pics...the whitewalls still have the protective coating on

tomorrow back to the dealer to pick out the "goodies"

it was an '06 Ultra and I am 5'6" 150lbs with a 30 inseam....when the bike was moving at slow speeds I felt that the bike was riding me instead of me riding the bike....

I had a '93 Heritage before the Ultra and loved it...and so did the wife...
I sold the Ultra after 3 months....I made a few $$$ and went to the 2010 Heritage

Congrats on the new Heritage; if I could afford two scoots I would have a Heritage to go with my Ultra. Enjoy!

Sweet Heritage. I was considering one before getting an FLH back in 05. Nice riding bike and I liked the fact that you sat in the bike and not on it. Enjoy!!!!

I gotta add that I really hate the **** swoosh that HD puts on the Heritage tanks now. They need to go back to the traditional two tone panel.

Nice bike. I rode 1 just like it at demo days a couple weeks ago. Nice riding bike. I bet you happy about losing the 100 or so pounds of weight. Lot easier to mone around. I'm sure you'll love it. Miles of smiles to you.
