I accidentally bought this bike. I'm from Syracuse, NY but bought the bike from Gail's H-D near Kansas City a few days ago.

I'm an IBA member and completed their 50CC ride (Jacksonville to San Diego, 43 hours), and on the way home from San Diego, I rode my Ultra Classic through the Mojave National Park. I crashed the bike due to sand, and after getting myself and the bike checked out in Las Vegas, I shipped the crashed Ultra home on a truck, and got myself into a rental car. I stopped out to visit my brother in Kansas City, and went looking at a few dealers for a good deal on a used Road King to ride home, when I saw this bike, and fell completely in love with it. I have owned many bikes, but this was the prettiest motorcycle I have ever seen. It's Tribal Orange and Galactic Black.

Hopefully, the Ultra will be repairable, but until that happens, I can finish out my riding season here on this beauty.

Here's the bike in the showroom:

My first gas stop:

And no good bike trip is complete without a Waffle House meal:

Welcome to the site glad to have you join us. Congrats on getting your SERK... and I can't think of a better way of turning lemons ("I rode my Ultra Classic through the Mojave National Park. I crashed the bike due to sand....") into lemonade. Glad you faired well in your mishap and was able to find a new (another) bike to finish out the riding season.

Ride Safe,
Fired00d

Welcome to the site!
What a beautiful bike.
This may be of interest to you.
Attending a GTG is the best way to get to know the members and put a face to those screen names. Many a lasting friendship have come out of these GTG's,
So. if you want to meet people, ride some awesome roads, kick back and have fun, come to one or all of the GTG's. ( For the newbies out there, GTG = Get Together )
Make your plans now and avoid the rush. In other words, stop pondering and get a hankering and make reservations and attend.
See ya'll there.
The GTG's are in the event section of the board.
Again Welcome.
