Over the pastyear,my riding has changed from daily commuting to more long distant riding. Although, at heart, I am 18 years old, my butt is unmistakenly 50 years old. Since spring, I have been researching baggers and was waiting to see what the 08 line had to offer.I love my Deluxe and have always struggled with baggers and fairing. I never though a bagger looked like what aHarley was supposed to look like.
Well,tomorrow I will be picking up my new 08 Dark Blue Pearl Street Glide. Although it'snot a softail, it still has some sleekness to it and will better meet my riding needs. I will be able to ride longer distances and more comfortably in the winter.
Of course,now that I am a bagger, I will only be able to vote for a bagger at BOTM ever if it isn't the best looking bike nominated. [sm=joke.gif] In my opinion, the softail designs seem to always keep in the tradition of what Harley Davidson motorcycles are supposed to look like.
On a good note, I do receive a gift pack with my bagger.
1 tube of ben gay
1 bottle of Men's Grecian Hair coloring
1 prescription of Viagra
1 bed pan (so I don't have to walk to the bathroom in the middle of the night)
1 free consultation atHair Club for Men
