Default Why can't I ever be satisfied?
Started with a 2004 Fatboy , spent a fortune on it then sold it to buy a 2008 Ultra. Spent a fortune on it, loved it, got bored with it and sold it to buy a 2009 Street Glide. Did the 21/18 , extended bag, apehanger thang...missed my Ultra and went and bought a 2010 Ultra which I've spent a fortune on....love it to pieces but I'm getting bored again and have Road King fever now.......W.T.F. is wrong with me?

I have the same issue I guess. I started with an 06 Heritage Classic, now have an 09 SG with the 110 upgrade from the previous owner, and now craving a 13 Road Glide CVO. I had the paperwork filled out and approved last week but trying to not pull the trigger, trying to be smart, LOL. On the other hand, my wife has an 02 Fatboy, the bike is badazz, and she won't do a thing to it, not another piece of chrome, has no interest in any other bike. Now thinking about it, if it's like cell phones, maybe it's okay for me to get that CVO, it's like using her upgrade.

You got that right. My wife has a 2012 Road King with 16" Burly apes that I lust after every time I ride it. So nimble and simple....just a motorcycle, me, and the wind minus all the bells and whistles.

Buy a Victory and you won't have any upgrades to worry about as there aren't many to choose from. On another note I wish I could afford your problems.

I can relate.
