Default Increased pull

(2012 Ultra Limited) Things running really smooth here at work so got lots of time to ponder thoughts on bike mods. While I have been thinking of exhaust, tuner, cams, etc.... as well as bling items. I had a thought that took me back to my winter toy (that I didn't get to ride this year / Mother Natures a B) While I have modded my sled a bunch, when it came down to dollar for dollar most bang for my buck - a simple gear change yielded the most seat of the pants pull. Being the Ultra is a 6 speed and I'm not real familiar with the ratios yet, is it common for folks to change sprockets to increase pull ?

Yes, there are several who have done this mod. (as long as you don't mind the increase in highway RPM's) Here's a little something to help you pass the time:
