Went to look at RG's today. They have been growing on me and had the itch. Looked at the Ultra and I dont know if I am getting old or what, but it is more about being able to ride everyday and be comfortable. One ride on the RG and I WAS HOOKED. Now I know it is the same frame as my SG, but WOW, what a difference, it is like night and day. This bike is so nimble and in turns just carves them up, I can not even believe the difference. Yes I do have the 21 inch up front on my SG and 200 in the rear and know that makes the bike handle much differently, I was not ready for the tremendous difference. I know I am going on and on, but like I tell my wife I did not realize there could be such a huge difference in the 2 touring bikes. Hope I am not rambling too much, just excited. One thing I did notice is the radio is way too far away, LOL!!! Got the Ember red sunglow, love the color.

 

congrats and good luck!!

 

That is a purty fugly, ride the hell out of it, and be safe.

 

Sweet sharknose - I say you did good...enjoy that new bike smell!!!

TO34,

Thanks, Yeah had the 21 and 200 on the bike since new and was all I was used to. I appreciate the stock ride now more.

 

Picked mine last Thursday.....love it.........

 

Congratulations on your new ride. You are gonna love it. I hope they don't make a RG Ultra in Denim Black any time soon.
