Could someone tell me what is so good about the Street Glide? I dont really find it attractive like the Heritage Softail Classic or the 72. Maybe i have weird taste but i do not find the sg sexy at all no offense.

The street glide with full kits like saddle bags and fairing doesn't look that bad but the naked ones i do not find it sexy at all i am lost as to why it would be so popular?

Wait a minute i just checked HD site i am getting confused super glide with street glides i mean the superglide is not very sexy at all but the street glide is not bad looking.


Street Glides look like Victory Police Bikes

Best Selling might not mean best bike, sometimes best selling means cheap.

Not sure what you are trying to accomplish with this post? are you looking to buy or just surveying the forum members?

My CVO was hard to come by, it took more than 4 months to get because they were sold as fast as they hit the ground. I searched many dealers and still had to wait.

I am already bored of the 72.

The problem is I will lose too much money if I trade in my bike for another Harley.

S G might be the best selling but if I were to buy a new Harley I would get the Ultra Electra Glide Limited like my 2011 in BLACK I like the SUV usefulness of the big trunk you sure can't get much in those skinny saddle bags on the S G.
