Default Pics of My New Ride
A little over a week ago I posted a thread about how I had gone into the dealership to get the brake light switch recall taken care of and came out with a brand new 2012 Ultra that I never planned on buying. Part of the deal and one of the biggest factors in going for it was the fact that they were going to swap out all my add ons so I didnt have to start all over again. Because of this I had to wait to pick up the new bike.

Well I picked up the new one yesterday afternoon. Rode home 65 miles in the pouring rain but it was worth it. She's a great bike! A few of you requested pics in the original post, so here they are

There's a certain feeling when you get a new bike. Congrats! I rode my '07 yesterday in northern Indiana!
