Not to sound smart but unless you know for sure you'll be with your girlfriend for a very long time or she is paying for half of the bike buy whichever bike YOU like best. Just my .02 cents. I speak from experience

I ride a fatboy and love it but you have to go with what you want not your g/f. You will know when you've found the right bike.

My wife rides a Fatboy and I just purchased a SG. They are both very nice motorcycles but it depends on what your intentions are for the bike. If you are doing more long distance riding or 2 up riding the SG is going to be a better bet. If you are taking shorter rides and more solo riding go for the Fatboy.

It really comes down to you and what you like or may want. I bought my Fatboy to ride two up where as some on here prefer to ride solo on it.

I am in the same boat getti ready to pick up another bike after the great A$$HOLE thieves. I want another Fatboy but am thinking about picking up a Deuce. I really do not know which way I want to go with ith.

Let whoever is making the payment on it decide. But obviously you know what my choice would be!
