Thanks guys. Been riding sport bikes for the last 15 years but after riding a buddies Super Glide last month... well, you know... I had to get one. Mighty nice to just relax and enjoy the ride again.

Welcome to you. Nice bikes. Does it feel goofy going back and forth from one to the other? I'll bet it is a big change in the handling specs between them.

The only problem is remembering where to put my feet when I leave a stop... in front or behind me.

Wanted to say hello and post pic of my bikes. Wondering if any of you also ride sport bikes?

Jim
Not strictly a sports bike but as near as I am going to get to one - actually this was my bike before my current Harley.
