No More Tip Over?
Just order this for my Ultra Limited. I'm sure it will give me peice of mind when the ground or pavement is soft.

I did a 10,000 mile trip a few years ago.
The first day out I stopped at the side of the road to check my straps....and found a nice mtn dew can laying in the gravel.
I squarshed it and used it under my stand for the entire trip.
I got pretty good at tossing it down and hitting it with the jiffy the first time.
I think the deposit value was 5˘

motorcycles are not investments- they are purchases and loose value every day whether sitting in a garage or being ridden.
basic supply and demand.
25 years ago supply was limited to about 25,000 units yearly and demand created a 2 year wait list.
the past 15 years supply has exceeded 220,000 units and demand is satisfied.
that where the"'special, limited and custom" editions come into play, H-D has to find ways to drive sales
my rule of thumb is every $ saved on this bike gets me another $ closer to the next. I like multiple rides in the garage
