I'm 61 and own a RK Classic, an Ultra Classic, a Wide Glide, and a FXST Softail. I put more miles on the softail, simply because it's the easiest to clean. I like the RK better than the Ultra, because I can remove the windshield in hot weather. And even though I ride the Wide Glide the least, I probably like it the best. Reason being, I look at the WG, then the ST, and it only takes a minute to decide which one I want to clean. Oh yea, I live on the beach. Cleaning is a never ending process. I owned a springer a couple of years ago. If I dreamed about riding it, I had to get up the next day and clean it.

I'm 57 years young and I'm currently riding a 2005 FatBoy. When I grow up I'll probably switch to something a little more comfortable.

When you "grow up", RIGHT, like that's ever going to happen.

My personal philosophy is that, you have to grow older, but I don’t have to grow up.

I'm 67, soon to be 68 in a few days. I ride an 05 Heritage Softail Classic. I put about 13,000 miles on it in the last year.
