All,
  Thanks for the welcome, and to all those that are local we will ride soon!  I am currently a bit jammed as far as time goes, I am taking the new bike down to New Braunsfels for my final check out dive next weekend.  I am getting recertified on SCUBA for a trip my wife and I are taking to Jamaica in May.  I did not mean to come off like a moron with my exhaust question.  I know I prefer the sound of the BUB slip on's, I was asking what slip on's perform the best.  My "other" bike puts 101HP and 121FP to the rear wheel, and while this bike is amazing, it is not nearly as fast as my other one.  That being said, this bike is everything I have been wanting in a bike for several years.  I wanted a full touring bike, and considered everything out there.  The Goldwing is pretty much the ultimate in touring, but it has no real soul(but damn they are fast).  I briefly considered one of the BMW K bikes, but to go along with the lack of soul, I absolutely HATED the way the K1200LT rode.  It was like being on a couch and the suspension completely took away the entire motorcycle experience.  I rode the Victory Vision, but could not get past the overall look of the bike.
SO, the short list is Slip on's, shorter antenna and some sort of pouch for the windscreen.  Of ALL the things that this bike has, I am suprised that it does not have some sort of garage remote built in, I will make due with a mini-remote that I have been using on my other bikes.  Any and all suggestions are welcome!  I have read about the J&M shorties, but was looking at Item number 200207862181 on eBay.  Anyone know if they perform as well as the J&M?

TD - Your bike does have a built in garage remote.  Hi/low beam light switch is the switch - after you set it up.  info is in your owner's manual, & it should have come with a box to wire in to your garage door opener directly also.

The transmitter is (should be) on the bike, but did he get the receiver to hook up to the garage door? :nixweiss:

The SEULTRA comes with so much crappola stuff it took me a week to figure out what all the bike had - the dealer told me about it all, but basically I wanted to get on it & ride instead of listening to all the info.  I wonder if this bike also has a "mystery button?"

The remote is built into the hi/lo beam switch and the bike should have a receiver that attaches to your opener and 110v in the house -takes about 1 m inute to synch the receiver to the bike and hook up the supplied wire lead to your opener-works great about 50 yards range switch to hi beam and back and the door operates. Enjoy!

I suppose I need to RTFM huh?  I did get the owners manual, but did not read it.... obviously.  What I did not get is a box for inside the house, I bought the bike used with 7k miles on it.  Odd that it would require that?  I will look for a replacement on the Harley web site....(sigh)
BTW, if you go to www.richnixon.com/ultra.html you can get a couple of better pics.  I will post more as the week goes buy, hopefully in more exotic locale's than my driveway!

1 Tricky no worries. I saw the receiver in the catalog-$90 i think. It looks like a square black smoke detector with a Bar & Shield, wire antennae, LED and a button for programing withthe male 110 plug on the back.
