Default Changing my style-need some help

Hey, I'm new to this forum but not new to HD's. As I find myself getting older , I find myself looking towards a different style of bike, I've always rode dynas or soft tails and now I have the old lady on the back more often and kinda feel like having a more comfortable ride for longer distances, I'm looking towards buying a street glide or maybe an ultra. But I know nothing about some of the extras you can get on these bikes, especially like the electronics set ups. What exactly is available as far as communication between riders and passengers/helmet set ups. Radio,mp3,and cell phones I guess I'm looking for an explanation as to how all that works, and what's available out there, and maybe what is recommended and the cost of it all?

If you're talking about 14 models, I do believe the largest base of options will come with the Ultra Classic Limited models.

PTT (Push To Talk) communication between you and passenger
CB
Sirius/XM option
Integrated GPS
MP3 support built in
No CD support on the 6.5 Infotainment systems.

No, I'm sorry I should have been clearer, I will probably be picking up a used bike. Somewhere between an 08 and a 12. I think I'm going with a street glide.

I prefer our helmet-to-helmet bluetooth system from Scala. You can use any bluetooth enabled device with it too if you want.

Touring bike is the way to go.

I agree.. this is your best way to go IMO for a street glide.
