My dad got the ultra and really likes it. He said it is the most comfortable bike he has ever ridden for long distance trips and his has owned many many bikes. We put a side car on this one and he got his new fuel injected one triked. The side car tilts electronically so it isn't hard to hold the bars at varied speeds. He also triked his gl 1800 so he is officially an old man now. That worked for me though since I bought his vtx 1800 and my brother bought his fz1. The dealer that triked all his stuff made out quite well as he got 6 bikes traded in for half their value with almost no miles. Almost made me cry...but at least I got the X.

You will love the quick-detach system.

And yeah, those lowers really shouldn't be used if the temp outside is more than 50 degrees.

...agree about the fairing lowers. Also if you have a large foot (like me...size 13) they seem to get caught on the edge of the fairing lower...never liked that.
