Default Well... That's was fun, see you around

So. Sold my bike and picked up a 2017 road glide

Best part is that I do not get buffeted with the new fairing design. It's so pleasant to ride with wind coverage and no buffeting

So see you around guys.

Seems kinda odd to build a club style bike and then move to a touring frame. At least your fairing search is over! Now you can focus on the stereo!

i just like building bikes. bought and sold a lot over the years. not really specific to a certain type of bike.

if you look at both bikes they have common themes.

mag wheels
dual disc
brembo calipers
fairing
dual gauges
led headlights
storage
black

the road glide just fits me as im 6'4. also the road glide frame style is more sound than the dyna frame as far as swing arm connecting points are concerned.

I will be going with tbars, 2 into 1, raised shocks etc... performance bagger will be the route i go with this new bike. This road glide rides so smooth and im very comfortable on it in stock form. the M8 motor feels great. Pretty excited to finally get a new road glide. Its been in the back of my head for some time now.

I get that. Sounds cool. Maybe update us once or twice when you get some progress made.
