It was a guy named Mike from Hickory NC.
I took a few pictures, and told the guy I basically had stalked him all over MV.

Good Luck with the New Ride !!

May I suggest some higher bars? 😊StuartIm one of the few that actually like the stock bars. These are 2" higher than the ones on my RGS so we'll see.

Looking gooood. What did you do with the audio?I went with the Rockford Fosgate Gen3 Stage 2 kit for the ultra. The nice thing about this setup is it’s got a better amp than the boom 2 systems, you only need one (800w x 4 ch), it’s got factory presets already for the setup ( 2 front fairing, 2 tour oak), weatherproof and direct fit. Sounds great!

Got a few things done, grips, mufflers, riders backrest and some other small stuff. Waiting on a boatload of parts to come in.Good to see you got away from the CVO :orange: so you won't be spending so much on a new scooter. :nixweiss:
I still think your green machine looked fantabulos. Kryptonite and Tribal Orange are still my all time fav's. Your new one is trying to get on my list. Enjoy

Figured after putting everything on it that I want, i will still save around $10k-$15k vs buying a CVO.
I don't have plans of getting a new bike anytime soon. However, this will probably be the route I take when the time comes. Hell, the "Specials" and Limited models now cost about what CVO's did not long ago. I predict in the next couple years we'll see a 60K CVO. And as always, it will probably have about $2k worth of extras in all reality compared to "standard" production models. I love my bike, but 41K was my limited. And even that is pretty ridiculous.
Overall, congrats on your new ride. CVO's have been really bland for the most part, but that paint scheme is awesome.

That was the sad part of buying a CVO special paint (if it came out ok) but then you start replacing lots of things. Always thought it was a better deal to buy a std Harley and then get a set of special painted tins for it. Does Harley still sell paint sets, if I recall they only made so many of each set.They do. But you're talking damn near CVO pricing or more for everything.

Almost done. Got the stage 2 cam upgrade done, all the controls are changed to Kahuna Gloss Black and a bunch of other little things.
Looks great ! nice finishing touches
Gloss Black Heat shields would be the :cherry: on top :2vrolijk_21:

Finally finished with my list. Got CarPlay working and replaced the stock console.
What was needed for car play to work ?
Post by: kojak on November 21, 2022, 04:57:28 AM
What was needed for car play to work ?This is a complicated topic as Harley upgraded their software in 2022 to require a connected headset for CarPlay to activate. So for bikes 2020 and newer, with the boom gts radio without whim, otherwise using a wired headset you can use a car play adapter that plugs into the rider intercom port on the console and fools the radio into thinking there is a headset connected and allows CarPlay. I don’t ever use a headset so for me, I needed a simple solution and this was it.
Since I removed the ugly console with the headset port, I relocated the port to under the seat with the adapter plugged in.
