Once she sits on the back of the Classic or Ultra - she will Never be happy with anyother set up.... be warned,,,, lol

I made the move almost three years ago and have been very happy - I really did not like that big box on the back and we could Not stop filling it up (heavy for us short guys) ended up getting the chopped pack and had it painted to match... I am much happier with the look of the chopped pack and the wife has learned to pack accordingly... we are both happy now...
