Default New ride

Picked up a new toy the other day. Man, this thing drives incredibly well. I came of a Heritage and it was an awesome bike...but wow. Just need the rain, flurries, and ice to stop falling. Oh, and temperatures above 25 degrees would be nice. It came with the upgraded radio and I have already installed a few pieces to make it mine...more to follow.

Not sure about the question...but it's a 2014 Ultra Classic, Sand Pearl/Canyon Brown Pearl. Not a Limited. That was a bit out of my financial reach and it left some money for add-ons.

If that is a bad response, I apologize. I don't do a lot on the forum except use it for information for the most part (very helpful).

Congratulations on the new purchase! I went from a Dyna to my Ultra and wondered why I did not do this a few years ago. I am only 42 and get a lot of crap from my buddies that I am old! Man the comfort is worth it!!

Congrats! (If there is a pic posted I can't see it on my phone). I ALMOST went for that exact bike in that exact color, knocked my socks off! Then we talked trade allowance and I was depressed for a while, then I realized that mine is paid for and I cheered up again!

Gotcha stro. That explains your question (pic is there). The color was a big selling point, along with the deal...not a steal, but pretty good.

Thanks for the complements. Can't wait for a little warmth. I am usually a year round rider, but it has been brutal since christmas.
