Yup, Newcastle sure is the home of Newcastle Brown.  It's not served as cold in the UK as the States and the bottles are normally a bit larger than the ones I've been served in the USA.

Since we've got the bikes we haven't been able to take them out, because 1.  the weather's been so bad and 2. the builders have been in laying paving in front of the garage so it's a quagmire of mud and cement at the moment.

Where we live is on the North West of England and Newcastle is the North East, but it's probably the narrowest part of England (in fact Hadrian's Wall - built by a Roman - sort of joins the two areas).

Can't wait to get out.

A beautiful pair of bikes!  I love the rock wall of the house too.  Can't say much for the license plates though!  :cherry: :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2:
You will love the Ultra.  YOu have alot of options to customize!
Have fun.

Can't do much about the licence plates, at least we got sequential numbers!

Probably going to put a Vance and Hines Big Radius 2 into 2 onto the Ultra at the first service, already fitted and dynoed with a PCV.

Thanks

Congratulations. Great color choice.

Why is it that the non North American CVO Ultras & regular Ultras don't come with rear and side tour pak lights? Anyone know the answer? 

We don't get the mirrors as well, probably just trying to make us feel like poor second cousins.

For us Yanks (who don't really speak English), I supposed "chuffed" is a good thing?

Definition:

"chuffed: adj generally happy with life. Make sure you only use this word in the correct tense and familiarise yourself with the meaning of the word “chuff,” too (see previous entry). For antonym see “dischuffed”."

Chuff, however, has other meanings.
