I guess I just grew out of it and wanted something for longer rides. I never liked the idea of bagging the Lo since I thought it looked best stripped down. On the glide, the whole point is being a bagger for long trips so I don't feel that personality conflict I always had with the Lo. Anyway, you guys don't want to hear another story, just thought I'd let you know I'll have a bunch of parts coming for sale as soon as I can get good pics and get them posted.

It was cool being in early on this thread (post #11 4/2010) and to see what everyone has done with their bikes. I'll be keeping an eye on things during my daily visit to the forum.

Here's a shot of the glide, see ya guys around.

Congrats Bill, hate to see you go, you have been such a big help to me since I found this thread. Great looking bike, don't be a stranger, enjoy the new ride

My buddy and I took a little ride around town.
2013 Streetbob and my 2013 Fat Boy Lo.
His bike is pretty much stock and he told me he feels emasculated when riding with me.
I told him he should of bought a softail.

I walked into the dealer set on buying a Street Bob but fell in love with the Fatboy Lo. Added the removable sissy bar and now I have a long list of other mods I want to do.

Looking good. One word of advice though, be careful busting his chops about the street bob. He might do like my street bob owning buddy did and one up you with a street glide
