Hello. My name is Jeff and I'm checking in from the suburbs of Chicago. Looking for more comfort for the wife and I, traded in my '03 VTX 1800 on a 2012 Electra Glide Ultra Limited today. First HD for me. Took a nice ride today and loved every minute of it.

I picked up a FLHTCI earlier this week as well, and my previous bike was a VTX 1300C. I will never go back and I doubt you will either, congrats!
