My fatboy lo - YES, Harley - NO. I wish I would have waited a little longer and saved for a bigger bike.

My Heritage is a keeper, but if I had more money than sense, I'd but one of every current model HD makes and build a big garage to keep them in. Ride a different one every day.

No. I bought my FXSTC as soon as I saw it sitting on the show room floor.
I waited 10 months for my FXCWC to be delivered. Put a deposit on it before they were even released in 07.

I can honestly say I would purchase a Heritage again if given the choice...my runner-up was definitely the Crossbones and I may build a bike similar to it over the course of several years.

I might just end up getting one next year and keep them both if I can swing it. Thx for the responses.

I don't have regrets at all about my Lo.


I would love to have a Denim Street Glide as well. My ultimate plan will be a Street Glide in a few years parked next to the Lo. Both in Denim Black.

It isn't regrets. I just see a Night Train and start drooling.

I see a trend going here and I thought I would be the only one.. NO regrets on my Lo... the FatBoy has always been my favorite and once I saw the Lo in denim black I was sold... but if I had plenty of money a black denim street glide would be parked beside it!! and I also wish I had bought the D&D FatCat instead of the the V&H Big Radius..
