Stretch it and get a Limited. Like someone else said, you're going to end up getting everything anyway, and it's cheaper to get it already on the bike. I can't imagine why I'd ever want to take the tour pack off, the lowers are fantastic, ABS & cruise kick butt, the 103 is nice, and the other bells & whistles are convenient.

Yes, it's a lot of money up front, but it's cheaper than adding them after the fact.

Any input is appreciated.
It would have to be the Ultra for me. Work a deal out to swap the wheels, and have the difference applied to the ABS add-on.

You have to buy it with the bike... it is not an after purchase add on.

This is true and not one of my choices. It's either a Classic with cruise and ABS or a basic Ultra with the spoke wheels non abs. I don't have the cash for a limited and not one of my choices anyway.

Thumbs up Get the ultra

Just Bought a 2010 Ultra with ABS - 2 Tone Merlo Sunglo/Cherry Red Sunglo, Spoke or laced wheels as they call them, they came on the bike although I asked for mag wheels, It came from the factory that way. The dealership offered to change them out but, they took $200.00 off the price if I would keep them. So I figured what the heck. have only had it for a few days. My Previous bike was a 2006 Black Cherry Electra Glide Classic. I always wanted the upgrade. I like all the upgrades offered but it is more expensive Only time will tell. Oh YEAH, KUDOS TO FORT WORTH HARLEY DAVIDSON IN FTW TX. FOR ALL THEY DO!!!!

Go with the Ultra and have them credit you on the wheel difference.

When you climb that high up the ladder, go ahead and get on the roof. In otherwords, get the Ultra and then you can take the lowers off if you want. Thats why i went with the Ultra instead of Street Glide, can change and remove stuff but you still have the tour pak and lowers.
