I sat on one at the dealer today.
Great looking bike, even better with your mods.

H-D demo ride at the dealer today and they had the 2010s. The WG is bad *** and no picture does it justice. The rear fender is not a SB fender, it is a little longer and has a different and killer looking body line to it. I have never ridden a WG before so I can't compare, but this bike rides nice and it Handles very good at slow speeds, even with the 21 and the rake. You sit nice and low to the ground, seat is a little firm but I think it will break in. The handle bars are comfortable, but my arms were kind of stretched out. I think mini apes would work for me a little better, but I am used to those and they are not borrowed from the Low Rider. The licence plate bracket assembly is not borrowed from the Nightster and with a slight mode to the strut rail you could run it on an 09' and earlier, it bolts to a small tab welded to the frame.
You got a nice ride there jason628!!!
Don't want to high jack the thread but the Fat Boy Lo is freakin awesome too rides and looks bad *** too! I rode em all, no Road Glide custom though, but the Dealer had one and it really looks good with the single exhaust. I guess Monterey County HD was the first dealer to get the 2010 demo rides and I am told the H-D Demo is heading off to Sturgis next so if your in N. CA they are doing it tomorrow.
Had a blast today

I'm currently typing this email from the Comfort Inn in Marinette, Wisconsin....Just 150 miles north of Milwaukee. We're on a weeks Biking vacation through Northern Wisconsin and the Western part of Michigans Upper Penninsula. Hubby and I stopped in at Vandervest Harley Davidson. Would you believe they didn't have ONE NEW 2010 BIKE ON THEIR FLOOR? You would think the #1 Harley Dealer in Wisconsin would have one or two to show off. Tons of Used bikes and 2009 models.....but not ONE new one to look at, let alone test ride.
Anyway, Congratulation on your new ride, and welcome to the family.

Thanks for all the comments...I'm not surprised about not seeing any of the 2010s on the floor. My dealer called me originally about the Fatboy Lo and showed it to me in their warehouse. When I called back about the Wide Glide, it had just come in Wednesday and was in the warehouse. They weren't going to put out any 2010s until they've thinned out their 2009 inventory some more.
