Chit... I is an old Man, but I'll still love our Heritage (The old mans Softail) . I've ridden Ultra's, RK's and Street Glides. None of them fits me as good, nor do they ride better, at least IMO to make me want to trade or get one.


But we all have to ride what we want and love..

So good luck and enjoy U new bike.

Good luck with the touring bike. Your softail is cool, I think you're going to miss it a little.

I did just the opposite. Traded in my 07 electraglide classic for a 2013 Heritage softail. And I must say with only 700 miles on it so far, I LOVE THIS BIKE!
