Default Best of both worlds!!



Finally had to make the switch! Have been on the fence a long time but in the last few weeks Harley has just been pissing me off over and over so, screw 'em! For a very short time both of these will stay in the stable but I can't see a time right now where I would walk outside and say lets take the slow, hot, noisy bike without the radio, cruise, onboard navi and heated seats and grips.
So I am going to hang onto the road king just until I get the new brakes on and change the oil in all 3 holes then she will be up for sale.

Congrats on the new ride. Made the switch around the first of the year to a red '13 Wing.

"I can't see a time right now where I would walk outside and say lets take the slow, hot, noisy bike without the radio, cruise, onboard navi and heated seats and grips."


Yup...I agree. 97 degrees.......85% hunidity. Need that heated seat and grips (your words, not mine). Slow bike? To you maybe. Noisy? (You must have after market or pipes that did not come on the bike). Radio, cruise......you bought the wrong model.
Enjoy the Gold Wing....I used to ride one. (did you ride a BMW?...way better than Gold Wing).

So what you are saying is you are pretty much out of excuses for not riding. Harvey will be glad to hear that.

Congrats on the new bike.

Not sure what you are implying? I have radio, Nav, heated seat and grips (but when it's 100 degrees and 90% humitity I usually don't use mine). You say noise I say music from a different source with Xpipe (header) and 4" Vance & Hines. 110CI doesn't seem too slow for me?

The Old Man That Once Rode a Suzuki is very wise in his words of iron.
