 :orange: :pepper: :mango: :bananarock: :apple: :jalapeno: :cucumber: Congrats........ I love the 07 Cherry Ultra. The colors change from Cherry Red to Orange and Light yellow/ Gold.  Saw one @ my Dealer. The salesman took me to the back were they were prepping it for the Owner of the Dealership. As much as I love the Orange and Black Harley Colors, The Cherry One is my favorite, Except  for the 04 Orange and Black Pumpkin.

I'd like to introduce everyone to my new best friend. ;D You can see he has very good taste when it comes to colors on a scooter. :2vrolijk_21: :huepfenlol2:

I just got my first Harley.  My son has a Road King and talked me into joining the "Hogs" and also talked me into buying a 2007 Cherry Red/Black Ice  Ultra Screaming Eagle.  My wife and I are in Florida but our son took delivery of the bike for me and sent me a picture of it...sitting in his garage....I'll get to see it in March...sure looks nice...he is having pipes...sert and some other thing of a bob put on it before I get home....says I have to have it to keep it from getting too hot....anyway..Hello....I'm now an "OLD HOG".

OH MY GAWD.....just got home from Florida and got to see my new bike and ride it for the first time yesterday.  I fell in love with it .......loved my GoldWing...but love this too.  It's different but I think it sits more comfortable and it is more fun.  My son had  pipes and SERT and Stage something or other put on it along with 1200 miles.  I think he was hoping I wouldn't like it so I would give it to him....tough....I liked it.  Will send pics when I can figure out how to put them on this thing. 

I am fat due to Cancer drugs and am not very graceful getting on and especially getting off.  That seat back is in my way.  It helps if I put my foot on the passengers foot rest but I am afraid I will break it off....might even break the kick stand off.

I am really a HOG now.

Happy Harley Day Bully - It's a fantastic holiday we all have in common here - that special day we meet our newest scoot, It leads to weeks or months of celebration, showering the bike and ones self with related goodies - enjoy, enjoy, enjoy! :)

P.S. - I wouldn't worry about the pegs..I've seen them survive going down pretty hard..kickstand should be fine also - just watch yourself and enjoy!

It is with complete pride and joy I read this ride report Bully.  Congratulations, and you bet you don't need to worry one bit about the pegs.  I've seen them keep the gas tank off the pavement while a bike was sliding down the road on the pegs - think about it - 860 lb bike, sliding down road.......... You can't hurt that bike no way.  It is going to cradle you - once we figure out what seat to get on the bike to let you sit back a bit more so that the back rest isn't in your way.  Great news you have it home with you now.  As it should be.  ;-)

Bully,
       keep ridin and keep postin. We're with you every inch of the way. And don't worry about that jiffy stand breakin, I've seen bikes laid right up on top of the stand and they didn't break.

Not to steal Corbin's line, but Ride on brother, Ride on !
