same with me thats why I went there to sit on it and I was surprised, I have a deposit on one but I could easily get that back but now I really dont want to. It will be a really fun bike to have.

I keep telling myself to be patient. I need to throw a leg over one before I do anything, but I also want to hear some feedback from early buyers. I'm also not sure if I'll pick one up as a second bike, or if I'll wave bye-bye to my Ultra and have just the PA as my primary bike.

Yeah, I could see someone doing this in traffic... I don’t think so.

Keeping the RGU for the time being. We'll see if it has gotten any seat time between the PA's delivery and October or so.

I'm thinking I might keep the Road Glide and Pickup a Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE and have a bike for each type of riding instead of one for everything. (Though I still have other bikes.)

I also wasn't willing to reserve a bike and commit without trying it out first.
