SG Black, Don't like the fact that the Glides drag there ***'s around and there seats suck for the wife and I two up.

The dealer I'm buying from is giving me a great deal on what ever I choose out of stock. Blue and Silver is ok, sort of and they wont be getting a Black RK for some time.
I like the SG's. But it ****'s me off a tad that the seat is going to need replacing right off the bat and at min. it will have to have RK rear shocks put on it. I've already drug the bags on a buddys SG,,, of course after he drug them riding it to my place after he bought it. Put my 265 lb *** on a SG even with preload cranked up i can still compress the rear pretty hard in a corner.
I just wish the wife had bought one or the other for me for Christmas and I didn't have to decide.

Oh yes it does , my shovels silver and there's a silver 17 RK sitting on the floor at Dudley Perkins I'm going to see about this weekend. Think the pair will look rather good together in my garage.

There wont be a full dresser. That will not happen. I thought that one over very hard. Thought about getting the base full tour rig and then putting the trunk conversion on it and having a Street Glide as it should be instead of a *** dragger want to be, with a good seat.
But the bottom line is,,, I'm not wasting any money on Harley accessory at all. No Harley over priced back rest and docking hardware, no screaming turkey crap. And if they balk at warranty I will see them in court. I've had to deal with GM over one of there junk cars and they blamed everybody but themselves for the craptastic mega junk they built. It did not go well for them. Had it shipped back to Dicktriot and dropped in the parking lot. Tried to say a K&N Filter caused the transmission and v6 cooling system to fail and tried the epa angle.
I'm leaning twords the RK. Going up Saturday to get a deal hammered out in writing and then put down/hold money on it. A month or so ago I had the cash in hand. But after the Tulsa dealers pissed me off with there rip off pricing and stuck up tude I put the money back in the market. I've sold that stock now at a profit and the wire transfer should be complete Monday. Then it will be back up to a honest forth right dealer to pay for the bike in full and ride it home.
I should have the Stage One parts bought from J&P next week and have them in hand before I pick up the Scooter. Going to get a set of Eliminators, FP3 and Naked Kit Air Cleaner. After talking with a bunch of old buddys. Im going to order the Hog Workz dock and back rest next week also.
The whole time the wife just can't believe I'm buying a Harley. She has it in her mind I really want a R1, Busa or M109. lolololol As she has already laid claim to a new living room suite. Womenz

Hell yeah..
I do a lot of Touring and no longer care to have a fairing/stereo. Road King is a better ride for Touring. Fork Rake isn't as tucked in, bigger tires and wheels, more rear suspension travel, not to mention at least $5000 less. I'm surprised they even categorize the SG and RG's as Touring bikes to be honest. now a RG Ultra is a different story
I just went from a 15 RK to a 17 RGU.. The RGU - Best HD Winnebago I have ever ridden...

I had an 04 FLHRI that I absolutely loved. I'm still kicking myself for selling it. The thing ran great, got ridiculous gas mileage (stock 88 with cams) and handled awesome! It had a lot of suspension upgrades and a touring link. I now have the M8 RGS and am still getting to know it. So far I like it a lot. The fairing is nice and having music is cool. Although I find myself not playing it more than I do. I think the Glide is more about aesthetic appeal and luxury stuff and the King is more about a sleeker, more nimble touring bike. I could go either way because I have a Glide but my first love was a King.
