??? Sold the 05 Cobalt Blue and Starlight Black about a month ago. Purchased a 2010 FLHTK Ultra in custom Red. Really was apprehensive at first but after doing a few changes so far to the new bike I can now say no regrets. The CVO Fatboy was a lot of fun but I decided I wanted to do some long rides with tent's and bags and there was no way to accomplish that without worry about scratching the paint or carry a passenger on the fatboy.
Funny thing though I had heard a lot about the new frames and frankly I thought it was just a lot of crap by the MC trying to drive new bike sales. That being said if you haven't had the opportunity to drive the new touring bikes I think you'll be amazed at he handling, I sure was! I'd take this into any twisties I've ridden to date with no fear.
I haven't done anything to the motor so far and really don't plan on it. It's a touring bike and I want to keep it reasonably silent (wind and ipod only).
Wish I could of justified keeping the other but my remorse wouldn't allow it........

Yeah buddy, I just took the same bike out on demo and if I had'nt just spent 3k on the SEEG I think I would have been tempted myself, BTW its a nice looking bike straight out the shop ;D

Still miss the Fatboy though but the more I time I spend in the saddle the more I know it was the right move for me!

That is a nice choice. I was looking at one of those too. Never test drove it but like the idea of the 103 limited edition

I feel for you. I have an 04 Fatboy that I was going to trade in but the wife would not let me. Now I am the proud owner of a 2010 SECU Blk and still have the Fatboy for my solo riding.
