Thinking about going from a RK to Wide Glide

I really like the look of the 2010 Wide Glide thinking about trading/selling the Road King and getting one. Has anyone made that change? If you did can you offer any + or -?

one thing is how much travling do you do? Having a bike with lockable bags are nice,But a lighter bike would be nice to.
