What makes you think about that? Is it cosmetic or performance?

It's called buyer's remorse. A lot of people who purchase vehicles go through that phase.

I've had second thoughts about purchasing my '20 Heritage Classic 114, but I've since gotten over it.

I know there are some fairly substantial differences between the two, but has you second guessing your choice?

Bought my 06 Road King new. The standard "No Regret" package came with it. ! It still sounds like a Harley too! No regrets there either !

Hell no I don’t regret it. They’re not as special when everybody has one 😂

Bought a 2019 EGlide Standard last year. Didn't even come with passenger pegs! No regrets whatsoever. It's the bike I ride when I just want to ride... no radio, no GPS, no damn phone calls. Just the sound of the bike and the wind.

I have a 2018 Goldwing with all electronic gadgetry you can imagine, but that's the bike I use when I want to ride cross country. It's more like being in a car, but still a good ride.

But, to blow out cobwebs, get outside of my head and away from people, the EGlide is it.

My wife goes through this every time I buy a bike.

do you like it about 6500 dollars more?

Personally if I was going to spend the difference in price , I'd go all in and by a FLHTK and do a tour pack delete/ quick release

When I bought my Road King, I had zero remorse. I knew there were some things that were going to need to be changed to suit me better, and that it would take some time to get that work done. Just dig it and ride it. Make the changes you want as time and budget allow.
