Default Road Glide in the House..

So, 2 months ago I bought a 2014 Harley Sportster 72, loved the little bike but the small tank was killing me. The wife hated it, saying was too tight and uncomfortable. Today we went on a bike hunt, my plan was to get a street bob but after we took the Road Glide on a test ride we were sold on it. Wife loved the bike and all the features specially the radio and I loved the 6 gallon tank..we got a good deal and couldn't pass it...."happy wife, happy life, happy me...ahah"

Doesn't look like it's in the house... looks more like it's in the shed.




Congrats! Y'all are gonna love it!

Sportster or Road Glide? Hmmm, that's a tough one. Not.
