Well that should be AN intolerant dick since you feel like correcting everyone. There's a taste of your own medicine. Get it right!
OP, sounds like you got yourself a sweet new ride! Congrats. Post some pics when you get her home!

Thanks to all. I have a quote from one dealer of 5k another for same with less labor for 3k, so unless the seller will match the other, I have to take delivery stock, and drive to other dealer to get mods. Lots of black coming to offset the silver, black, chrome. I think it is going to be sweet and mine.

CONGRATS BRO!!!!!
Lesseeee..... Exhaust, Intake, Power Commander, Seat, Mirrors, Grips.... la la la la.....
COngrats again! Get the hard copy of the catalog and a bunch of yellow stickies! If nothing else, learn from my lesson on my FB114 - there are MANY mistakes in the HD website and catalog regarding fitment. Confirm with your dealer that if its a non-fit, they take it back w/no restock fee.

That is a great question and you will hear various answers when you ask. For me I did pause, but I started out returning to riding this year. In February I was going to by an Iron 883 and trade up next year. My goal was to get back on 2 wheels ASAP. My end game is Road Glide Special in industrial grey denim, but since I don’t want that weight right away, I was going to get a sporty. This year Virginia H-D was prohibited from participating in Freedom Promise.
That pushed me to Softail and when starting with Street Bob- small tank. Low Rider too much chrome and at time no forward controls. Slim had to add ABS and too many other things for 2 up and not sporty enough. Not a deluxe or Fat Bob guy. Fat boy liked but to me Sport Glide is best of both Fat boy and any touring bagger. When stripped down I call it a Fat Baby Boy. Thus my handle. It includes ABS and even cruise control. I will eventually add the tour pack and not have bags all the time 2 up with my wife. It has better back rest for her. Then add the fact I got ‘19 Barracuda Silver for sale price below starting MSRP of the Low Rider. That sealed it.
I will get used to riding this with my wife 2up and and move to RGS. 670lbs +me + wife = Touring weight +me
The Electra Glide Standard is a great option and almost made me pause. I was there when it was getting cleaned and put on floor. But I was already 3k in parts with Sport Glide and didn’t want to change my handle here, lol
