Same here. When I walked in the dealer I couldn't figure out if I wanted a Wide glide or a blackline. I ended up getting the blackline but sometimes I regret it. Next one will be a road glide or road king, can't figure that one out either. Just ride what you bought and enjoy it, you can always switch it up further down the line

I've had my 2005 SE FAT Boy for a little over 5 years and haven't had a second thought about buying it.
I started off looking at Ultras, but after giving it some thought, I knew I wasn't going to be doing any real touring. It didn't take but a few weeks until I added the saddle bags. That was the one thing I had to have, so i could stop at a store and have a certain amount of room to put some stuff.

My two favorites are the Train and the Custom. I ran across a great deal on my Train and grabbed it. Sometimes I think about what it would be like if I had ended up with the Custom but I have no regrets.

I love my 04 Heritage. Picked it up at a good price last spring. I am going to pull the bags and get a solo seat and fender bib since the OL refuses to ride with me.
I like that I can make it look different in just a few minutes.

I'm a huge fan of the springers, so the crossbones is the bike for me. However it would be nice to have a street glide too! I don't think I'd be happy with just a street glide, like I am with the cross bones. But it would be nice to have a SG for longer rides

I love my Fatboy and don't regret getting it..........but man if I had a bigger garage I'd also have a Street Glide for touring. I've taken a bunch of trips this year and it would be really nice to have a bagger.

It's natural. There's just so many cool Harleys. Love my Heritage and will probably never trade it, but I get envious whenever I see a Street Bob or SG. Or a Fat Boy Lo, especially in black denim...

No regrets here, but I have always wanted a Heritage Springer. When I had my 06 deluxe I always said that if I sold it I would buy a springer. Well I sold my 06 and looked for a springer but couldn't find one near me or one that caught my eye so I bought my current 09 deluxe. I still want a a Heritage Springer...

Love mine. I sold my fatboy and went into the dealership with the intention on buying a merlot or denim black street glide and throwing on the 23" front wheel I took off the fatty and going crazy with it. Saw the skunk I have now and had kinda wanted to try the whole "so cal" look anyways. So it came home with me and I havent looked back since.
