Ewwwwww....my eyes me eyes.

Freeeeeekin ugly. Its a two bagger. Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugly.

Sorry, just the way I see it.

In a way I would have to agree with you and I have a 2011 Limited in this color!! In low light or at night it's nothing special, BUT in the sunhine it really comes alive. By far the best choice in 2011 on the ultra limited. But that's just my opinion.

Is that true? I am not so interested in making calls but being able to answer if I get a call (especially if its the wife or someone from work)! Also, I have the stage 1 and screaming eagle pipes on it and while they are ok, I was curious if I did the 255 cams if that would negate any warranty?

I have a 550 and simply pluggged into the aux of the radio and setup the Zumo to connect to my phone via bluetooth. When my phone rings the zumo displayes the caller id and rings through the bikes speakers. I do not use a headset and no way would I try to answer. But at least I know who is calling and will pull off when convenient if I need to call them back.

The improvements in the touring line that were made between '08 & '09 are quite impressive. I've test ridden a couple of '09's and '10 limited bikes but never really got enough saddle time to see and more importantly feel the differences. Where the '04 had a hard time tracking in the curves the '11 doesn't. Anyway, overall great bike and with almost 300 miles on it already I can't say enough.

What the heck? Is my computer broken......where are the gorgeous mouth watering pictures?

Congrats!! Awesome color. I picked up my 2010 Ultra Limited 6 weeks ago. I couldn't wait for the 2011's. Had to take advantage of some really low financing rates. Already put 5K on the clock. 2132 mi. in one week to the factory and on the New England and back.

Excellent Choice....there is a rootbeer limited at my local dealer....looks black from a distance......definitely consider going with the 255's.....I can't say enough good things about the 103' with this set of cams......stump pulling torque......
