New member just saying hello!  Motorcycle rider since I was 5.  Now 46 and riding a 08 SE Ultra Anniversary.  The nicest motorcycle I've owned yet.  A few years ago I went away from HD to to a Honda 1800.  While it was an incredible piece of engineering and incredibly smooth and fast, it wasn't the same ride as the RK I sold.  Also, couldn't get used to the cramped riding position and no floorboards.  Anyway, back with HD and loving this bike.  I have my fingers crossed after reading about the problems with the 110.  I have made a few modifications including Wild1 chubby bars which improve the riding position greatly.  Mounted a touch screen GPS system and Sirius GT unit on the bars.  Very clean installation using Bracketron assembly.  Installed passenger handrails which DO fit with the speaker tourpak contrary to some threads I have read in other forums.  The bars install was very expensive due to the labor costs and the special ABS line extension required.  Very happy with my bike and looking forward to using this forum for more info!
