About the street glide? I didn't like the way It sat at all. You sit too high, seems like your feet are under you and my wrists felt like they were at my knees. And I'm a fuzz under 6' foot tall. I was cramped. No breeze due to the tall windshield it had. Just wasn't a fan. Now if it had apes, a drop seat kit, and was lowered quite a bit it might be doable. but not for putting all that on top of a 17 thousand or so dollar bike.
Still toying with the idea of rebuilding a wrecked one how I want it. but I'd have to sell the bones to fund all that.

Old thread, I know. Still must be some CB riders out there somewhere. I bought a slightly used 08 Crossbones this past spring. Saw it on CL posted from a local dealership. I remember seeing the CB in a magazine and thinking that I could ride one of those! Anyway, I kept going back to the CL listing like for a month or two, wondering why this awesome bike hadn't sold?
Finally, I rode my beemer over to have a look. Man, that bike was SPEAKIN' to me! 8400 original miles! The next day I went back and did the deal.
The original seat seam was tearing loose so I put the HD tractor seat on her and love it.
