Welcome!

I just recently purchased a 15RGS and I was also impressed with the handling of the bike given how heavy the damn thing is. I went with a 2-1 exhaust to drop some weight and add a couple ponies. So far I've been impressed

I have been riding ultra classics since 05 and just went to the road glide in July and there is no comparison. The RG is really a great bike have almost 10k on it and have not found anything that I don't like. Best of luck with your new ride.

Congratulations! You're going to love it. Just got my 2014 RK this February and you're right they are nimble and so easy to ride. Ride safe.

I'm with you Dark Lo, I came off of a 2010 Heritage, now on a 2015 Road King. Love the motor, cruise control, hard bag storage, this bike is a dream. And you are right, you it handles great. My wife and I are taking our rides to Florida and going to the Dragons Tail. I am anxious the get it through the twists and turns.
