Default May move to bagger?

So a pretty amazing deal has come up on a 08 street glide...

I gotta go apply for credit at harley tomorrow to be able to get the bike.

Basically, If I sell my 07 street bob I would only be paying $4000 buks
to go to an upgraded 08 Street glide (with upgraded stereo).

I never even though I would be looking at this now, but my friend found this
deal (from an individual) that looks to good to pass on.

I'll let you guys know...

If I get another bike it would probably be a streetglide. Took one for a few days and it was like night and day compared to the dyna. Really liked listening to the radio + if I bought something I had a place to put it. But the dyna isn't going anywhere.

Nothing like a Bagger. I don't regret the change one bit. I at least think it is very nimble and easy to ride. I say do it.
