But, I'd love to have a Street Bob to run around on when I don't need to carry anything!

37 on a Street Glide. Never thought I would see the day I would own a bagger. But that day has come and it would be hard to turn back now.

And it is not about the age. I think there are more younger people (under 50) that are doing more traveling on their scoots. And the ability to throw stuff in the bags is more appealing than strapping your gear to every possible open location. And the ride is so much better. I know my back thanks me every time I throw a leg over.

the thing funny about all this is when you were younger , like 15 or some were around there how many of you sit back and saw a bagger and said boy that thing is sweet. all i could think of thats got to be some old fart im going to get one of those cool looking bike. now that im older i think bagger are cool looking just as much as non baggers.

40 on a Street Glide, I don't think the StreetGlides qualify as a geezer glide.
