Default Deluxes' eyes only

I own a '05 Deluxe. I remember not sleeping nights knowing I own such a beautiful machine. About 2 months ago I added to my pleasures by purchasing an '07 SE Springer. I did this because I absolutely love the front end. Well, this Springer looks and rides better than anything I could of imagined. I get more compliments on this bike than I ever will on the Deluxe and since its brand new, I naturally have been riding it and letting the dust settle on the Deluxe. I havent put 50 miles on her since the new addition. The Springer with the 110 is way more fun to ride--no doubt. Buuut latelly things are changing witinin me, I am back to apreciating my Deluxe like the first day we met. That bike, IMHO, is the best looking thing out there. I am now in love again and just wanted to voice my opinion to all the lucky folks on here who own this great HD model.

As a fellow '05 Deluxe owner, the only thing I could want more is to have an '07 Springer sitting next to it in the garage!!

I know the feeling....I like to take my wife's SEFB out and blow the carbon out of it but the Deluxe is just more comfortable and of course I like the "retro" look.....

I got to admit myself, the Deluxe is one of the best looking and classiest bikes in Harley's line up. I'd love to own one myself someday. Everytime I see one on the road, I turn my head because they truly stand out like no other Harley; especially many of the two tone models.

My 05 Deluxe still attracts a lot of attention. I think its the whitewall tires which gives it the retro look.
