I have ridden the last 40 years many motorcycles and this is by far the best of the best. I moved up to an LT in 2002 to persuade my wife to join me in my passion. Not sure this plan would work I keep a R1200C for solo riding. It didn't take long to realize that the Cruiser was never being ridden, I loved the LT but I struggled with the 2002 LT getting it on the center stand and got caught a couple of times at slow speeds unable to keep upright. One test ride on the 2005 LT and my wife voted to get the new bike -- It is a very different bike -I never have trouble at low speeds - the extra power is awesome - and of course the power stand a pleasure.
Upgrades/Accessories: GPS (improved over the older model - fewer wires, all maps built in , faster & touch screen) - Radar - XM Radio - VOICE Intercom is also significanty better+++++++
