Thanks Steve. We also had a break in the rain so I quick put the winter fertilizer out and closed the pool! Haven't been on here all day. Appreciate the thought and while the bike looks great...your garage is way too clean....

Beautiful bike; wish HD made more two-tone RG's.

As for the tour pak, consider buying one without the Ultra light bar installed; buy the light bar and have it color-matched to the TP, then install it. The color-matched light bar is a nice cosmetic improvement over the black plastic, and it will be much easier to install the painted light bar on a King tour pak than removing the light bar from the Ultra for paint--that's a pita having done it twice myself.

Glad you found a bike that fits.

Not much done in mods yet. Alot was rolled over from my EGC:
Bub 7 slip-ons
PC-V
Hi Flo with round cover
Clearview GT Small (which is for sale in the classifieds)
LED clusters with smoke lenses
BrightAssLights LED tail
Saddlebag latch inserts
Sundowner seat

In the very near future:
Ultra Tour Pak
Lowers





Aren't these fugly bike,LOL I love mine. I really would like to put some lowers on mine but I just can't come up with the money. I did however spring for the tour pack. I used Zonotti's and got everything I needed except the Antenna extinsion,for $1,280. Good luck on the mods.

Love the Copper Color better on the Roadglide than most other bikes-just seems to fit better IMHO.
Sweet Ride!
