Default Traded in the Fatboy for a MIdnight Pearl SG

I just bought her last year, but the wife and I found we liked traveling a little more than local cruising - the softie was nice but the this weekend we logged some good time on the SG and really enjoyed it.

Had a real hard time picking between the RG and SG, but the final decision came down to the wife not liking the Shark-nose and falling in love with the midnight pearl once we were able to have our sales rep pull the bike into the sunlight - awesome color!

Started with the rear passenger quick detach and luggage rack - more to come though! Looking forward to reading all the forum posts in this touring section and making mods happen! Thanks for the support in advance !

The old bike:


New Street Glide:

Congratulations on the new bike - welcome to the touring forum.

MP is a great color, it really pops in the sun.
