Yes you better watch out. I rented a Ultra on 7/10. I owned a new 2010 Ultra on 7/24 and ownership was only delayed while they installed the 103" Big Bore otherwise it would have been 7/17.
LOL

It is a sweet bike, I'll say that. Very nimble, quick handling, rides smooth. Front end has more vibration than my '05 RK though. Bike does run very hot on the right side, but theres no high flow air cleaner or pipes so I knew that. 6th gear is kinda nice I guess, it is fun cruising with the tunes on, could stand for an upgraded stereo system. Haven't put the OL on it yet, but she rarely comes out as it is.

Overall, pretty nice, but yeah you can get spoiled fast real quick.
