Default Picked up my new Ultra
Now it time to install parts that are waiting in garage then ride. Rode it 250 yesterday after I picked it up and cannot believe the difference/improved handling.

Congrads on the new bike. Just picked up a 12 Ultra on 10 March. First ride was the 100 miles home and now have 240 miles on it. Too bad the weatherman is calling for rain all week or else the 1000 mile service would happen sooner.
