I'd love to have both.
In Awesome World....
I'd Keep the Deluxe
Add Shotgun Shock
Add 21" Front and 18" rear
Buy a Street Glide and just put exhaust on it and a sissy bar and it would be for my wife and I.

I feel your pain. I rode one and it was the best riding bike in the line up IMO, and I've ridden about every bike. I have a buddy that tells me all the time, "go ahead, it's only money." I haven't listened yet. Funny, he hasn't either. His bike is a 2000 and mine is a 2002. I am saving for a few more years to have both.

Over the holiday weekend, a friend of my brother picked up a 103 Street Glide and he rode it over to the BBQ I was at. He let me take it for a ride....It was so friggin' nice! The 103 has nice power....and riding with an iPod blasting was made me really want a SG!
I have 1000 miles on my 2011 Deluxe and I have been thinking about trading it in since I got off of the SG. In Awesome World, I'd be able to pick one up, but I just can't justify coming up with $6K+ to get into the SG. Maybe someday......

We all know softails kick *** anyway when set up properly. The novelty of music wears off, believe me. At lesat it did for me. There si nothing like a clean, lowered softail doen up nicely. Put it next to a bagger and the softail will always get more attention. Put some miles on that bike.

2 things I could care less about when I bought my Glide. 1. Music, and 2. Cruise control. Now these are 2 things I will always have on a bike. I use to say the same thing about listening to the pipes and road, but once you start adding music, its hard to go without. I recently lost my speakers and am waiting on new ones and it's driving me crazy
