Hi everyone,
Just joined today and just picked up my brand new 2006 Ultra Classic yesterday. I'm in love all over again. This is not my first Harley but I have been off of one since 2002. Been on a Honda Gold Wing since 2002 when nobody wanted to sell me a Harley without adding several K to the price. I think I made a good deal on this one. Bought it for MSRP so that's pretty good around these parts. The bike is black cherry/black pearl and is beautiful. It rides like a dream and I'm glad to be back in the family.
One question which I suppose I should put in another forum but I'll beg forgiveness and ask it here. I got the adjustable backrest and it's great for me but my wife says she doesn't have enough room in the back. Isn't the seat or tourpak adjustable to give her a little more room? Anyone got an answer?? Thanks!!

Not sure about the seat, I'm shopping for an Ultra myself.
