72
I got a notifiction from HD on facebook that they have released 2 new bikes...the 72 & the Softail Slim.
So...I got on the HD website to check them out & I gotta say that to me the new Sporty 72 is one of the best looking bikes HD has ever built from the factory!
I am getting ready to trade bikes & have been set on getting a Super Glide Custom for a while now, but now after seeing this I think I'm going to have to see one of these 72s in person and have a good look-over before I pull the trigger on the Super Glide.
It has the simplicity of the 48 & the Nightster, but chromed out & also love the red metal flake paint.
It's one sharp looking bike IMO!
Anyone else checked them out?

When it's all said & done, it would cost me at least $4,000 more to go with the Super Glide by the time I set it up like I want. I may still do this, but the 72 has me thinking..
I want to see one it person.

It's almost $3,000 difference actually. I'm thinking about this because the $1,400 or so in accessories that I would have to buy for the Super Glide, I already have most already on my current Sporty and I could put them right on the 72.

I mean, if you were looking to move from your current sporty to a Dyna anyway, why would you want to trade in towards another sporty? The 72 would be almost exactly what you have now, save for the flashy paint job.
