Learn to ride it and you wont switch back. Nothing like long rake, forward controls, and low ground clearance to make you're riding old school. Dont panic if you scrape the pegs. Its a sign you are getting the hang if it.
Rumors are HD is stopping production in 2018 You'll have a bike that not everybody owns

I understand all the support of the fxdwg but, op may not want what it is we wanted.

id still say ditch it.

Test out other dynas and if you are still feeling that way. Ditch it, life is too short to be compromising on the luxuries that youve awarded yourself. Get what you want.

Give it some time. I have no problem throwing my wide glide into some tight corners. Slow speed like it was said you learn the right combo of gas, and brake and you are golden. Also look where you want to go and my WG has never let me down and I still have the small front tire now to get a +2 on the front end

I have the opposite problem. I have a Sporty Superlow and I'm looking at getting a Wide Glide because I really like the extra rake.

Hah, yea, I never did that. I'm thinking of getting something bigger. Maybe I should move right on up to a Softtail but I really like the WG

welp, go put your butt on those seats. Test ride them all, even if you dont plan on buying new. I tortured a sales guy riding a bunch of bikes. Slipped him $50 for his time then left.

Just my personal opinion, but skip the softail. They don't corner worth a crap and don't ride that well.

Dyna or touring is my opinion. Both is better yet.
