HA!, I swapped from an 09 SG to the dyna WG. And I am not turning back. I love my WG while my SG was a great bike I prefer the ride and nibble response of the Dyna over the SG. Call me crazy, but I like the WG more for the ride. The convience of the touring accessories on the SG are missed but the ride is not.

Same goes for the Street-Glide too. Real easy to manuver in tight spaces at low speeds, better than my Fat Bob. Both bikes have a real nice balance to them. If I had the money it would be bye-bye for the Fat-Bob.
Dealer must of though I was some kind of high-roller to let me take those two out for a couple of hours. Jokes on them, by no means do I have that kind of money to step up to those machines. It was a nice experience while it lasted.

I was able to score a 2011 Merlot Street Glide with the 103 at Woodstock Harley while my SuperGlide is in for 1K service. I was the lucky ones that was able to get one without having their perferred service. I didn't realized that, but was lucky.

Man what a great bike. Other than the buffeting I get when wearing a full face. That thing got some kick. This is the exact bike that I wanted, but my funds are limited. I won't ride without a full face but I heard that it would eliminate the buffeting. Given that Im only 5'5" I'm able to maneuver this bike very well. The placement of the floorboards are perfect for my frame other than the heel shifter.

Can't ride without any tunes so having a radio helps alot. I get alot of looks cause I'm blaring out music other than rock. I listen to a lot of rap, hip hop, and R&B so don't judge me.

Mainly R&B and Jazz with a little Rap here and there...so I get the same looks.

The more I read these kinds of threads, the more I love my FXD Dyna.
