2019 Road Glide Special

Howdy M8 Forum-
New to the group! Traded my 2014 SGS for a 19 RGS. This is my 3rd HD. A hell of an upgrade. I can't get over how much more nimble the RGS feels on the road. And the 114 screams. I've got D&D exhaust, tuner and apes being added this week. So far, a hell of a ride! I'm reviewing the M8 forum and look forward to contributing as I learn about this new bike!

The official HD color is called Billiard Blue. I held off until the 19s b/c I wanted to see the color choices. Really happy that I waited.

I bought an 18 rgs the first week of August. I have had several batwing bikes and the rgs handles better. I have about 3200 miles on it now and liking the decision more and more. Iwas a little upset the 114 was standard on the 19 but at the end of the day I am glad I bought an 18 because don’t care for the colors of 19.

Thanks! I'm doing the 14 in Evils - love the look of your bike. I should have all these 'first round' upgrades finished by Thursday.
