    JB, I know of 2 girls that are around 5'5" and both ride a Ultra. They love em and one is a 110 SE 2008. Put your big boy pants on and go for it, you just might like it. :D

    Great pics chuck makes we want to pack up and head for Texas!!

    I went ridin sat with a buddy on his standard - seems I was always waitin on him!! Smoked him on the straight aways and through the twisties with my "Bargo-Lounger" !! :cool:
    We both got 06's with 95" motors (I got 203 cams and a tuner he don't need to know about though) and I could put my "touring bike" alot deeper into the corners and had alot more throttle comin out them!

    Has nothing to do with the size of the bike. I just think that they all look the same.:gah: I can handle an Ultra just fine, just not a bike that I like. I think that most of it is because a touring bike for me is just not practical for me at this time. I really do not have the time to take long trips so I find it senseless to buy all that bike for short trips. I am not saying that they aren't nimble, but I just like a smaller bike.

    Ya it suck colt was worth about 5k before getting his paper work , But the bad part is that My grandson was already making plans on making/training him for roping colt should have grown to about 16-17 hands , both his pariens where tall & good blood lines around here & AQHA reg our vet said he would eat most of his labor,we just had to pay for the meds that saved a few hundred bucks ,& JB order me a wiring harness & saved me a little over $70 on it even with shipping ,My bro-in-law said to call a friend of our's to call a friend of his , said he thinks he has the intake & after market fuel valve aka pet **** at his shop :D
