Default Test rode a 2012 today

Stopped by SD Harley and test rode a 2012 Ultra today. i have a 08 Ultra... i had to admit i wasn't very impressed. now the 103 was nice, but not nice enough to start over with payments and the add ons again. im too far along with my 08. for the new frame, wider tire, ABS, i really just didnt see that much of an advantage....

Local dealer had some on the floor today.

The Road King looked sweet in "Big Blue".

I own a 2007 and have ridden every year since. I do like the 103 a bunch and there is a bIG difference in the ride from 2007 - 2011.

But just not enough for me to plop down money and extend my present payments a few more years.
