My wife and I stopped in to the dealership to pick up a bulb and "do a little shopping". Well, long story short, I got my new headlight bulb alright. It came with a Pearl Gray protective case, an extra gallon of premium gas and a sixth gear! That's right, a 2009 Ultra Classic with low miles -- and it fits us perfectly! Told my wife I plan to buy all my parts ON-LINE from now on .... going to the dealership is too expensive!

Yes, but it uses a different bulb. What were you thinking? He he!

Congrats on the impulse buy!

After 30 years of primarily riding large metric cruisers/touring bikes I stopped at a Harley dealer in 1998 when I was out of town on business to buy a new set of goggles. Those $18 goggles have led to 2 new Ultras (1999 & 2007). It was just supposed to be a quick stop for goggles!!!!!!

And I wouldn't have it any other way.

Same deal man. Went to the dealer on my 98 wideglide, had to get the trailer to go back and get it because I rode a new 2008 streetglide home. In 2018 I am staying away from all dealers. Maybe...
