My Road Glide is the best long distance machine made period. The way the fairing moves the wind around me with no buffeting is the icing on the cake. The low and midrange torque on my stage one M8 is perfect for two up touring.
Thats why it’s the best bike made.
For me.

Because it isn't one if the millions of black Street glides on the road.

Personally, I really don't like the way 99% of the Road glides look. The fairing reminds me of something from Judge Dredd starring Sylvester Stallone and the dash seems so far away in addition to being very car like.

Different people like different things.
