I think I may own the 3 best bikes ever made now....lol least to my way of thinking. I just picked up my new to me 2009 Xt. What Hd was thinking when they scraped this brand is beyond me ! This bike added to my Klr 650 and Roadking gives me everything I could want. All very different rides, but all much fun in their own way.

I sold my 08 KLR to get my Uly, wish I would have kept it. The Roadkill may seem a bit underpowered now after driving the Buell! Have fun with the new ride & try to keep the front end down.

I thought about selling the Klr, but I think I would really miss it too. It's a great backroad explorer. The RK is a kinda "smell the roses" ride, very comfortable and easy going. The Uly will most likely get the most use.

You will no longer ride your RK. It will be lonely in the garage. Sold my Road Glide once I got my 09 Uly

Lol, thanks for the welcome. I don't know about selling the RK. Bought her new in 02, real teal, and carbed. I'm not crazy bout the new ones so she'd be kinda hard to replace.

I also sold my FLHP when I bought the Uly. Not a bad ride...but just didn't do what I wanted a motorcycle to do.

And I got tired of buying floorboards at every oil change ; )

Go check the "XB12X vs. X Difference" thread...the guy posting is wondering about the X or XT, and has owned similar bikes as you. You might be able to help him.

I have a Vulcan 1600 Classic and getting ready to trade my KLX250 for a Uly. I know that I will be keeping the Vulcan because that is the one that the wife feels truly comfortable on. I will have her test out the Uly, but at 5'4" I think that she is going to like being closer to the ground. The Uly will be my daily rider with the Vulcan being the weekender when I need to get away from schoolwork.
