Default Why wait, enjoy the M8
I have to say I am very happy with my 2019 road glide special. GPS is great to have, great power and torque. Smooth ride, loved my 06, 2011, but they can't stand up to the M8. I am very glade I upgraded. I hear a lot of stuff about the negative but to each his own. I even had the transfer problem, they said ok and installed the vent, all good since. Everyonebitches when they have a problem and I don't blame them. I just thought someone should say something when their happy.
