Default Temptation

Today I saw the first bike that has ever tempted me to even think about trading my beloved Wide Glide. My dealer has a Sedona orange Road Glide that is so sweet.

I may have to check into making the trade although, I love my WG.

I'm thinking I would really like a faring, tunes, and bags.

Default I succumbed.......

I'd only had my first Harley a month when I cracked, and gave myself over to the temptation. Saw it today for the first time. Still can't seem to lose this weird grin....

I'm not a touring kind of person but if that's what you want then go for it. Only bad thing is if you end up finding out that you'd rather have your Wide Glide.

I would give my opinion about people wanting to listen to music while on a Harley, but I won't because some might get on me about it thinking I'm talking **** or something.

keep the old bike for a few months-sell it in the spring for more money or realize that you made a mistake and unload the roadglide.
