I am sure you will miss your BO but the touring bikes are defiantly not a down grade. I am sure plenty of softail owners have made the switch and few ever look back. lord knows I have thought about it several times and one day I will also make the switch

I did the same thing a year ago then...I came back, don't get me wrong I loved my street glide but just didn't "tour" enough to do it. Put 10,000 worth of upgrades and still wanted to do stuff.

Get your wallet out because your in a new ball game now..lol

I'd love to have a BO next to the SG in the stable. I always like them

To me, the touring bikes are missing too much of the "fun factor", but I suppose you gotta keep mama happy.

Would she consider riding her own bike? That way, you could ride whatever you want.
