ROAD GLIDE ALL THE WAY............WITH THE FRAME MOUNTED FAIRING YOU CAN BURY IT IN THE CORNERS......WITH NO WEIGHT ON THE HANDLEBARS.....THE ULTRA HAS A 30 POUND WEIGHT ATTACHED TO THE BARS, AND THE SEAT MAKES IT FEEL LIKE YOU ARE SITTING ON THE TANK...............
GO WITH THE GLIDE YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT PLUS IT IS THE TRUE CUSTOM DRESSER THAT IS WHY THEY MADE THE FIRST SCREAMIN EAGLE A GLIDE

Default RE: Road Glide ride

I have to say I would never give my 05 Road Glide up. If I want another bike I have to be able to afford it as the Glide is paid for and it is not going anywhere without me on it.

I just cant say enough about it and the complaints are minor.

I agree with the forks need help.

I put the Heritage bars on and that was 50 well spent.

The damn black trim up each side of the inner-outer faring works it way loose in a sort of loop at the top of each side.

Other than those minor things 13,000 miles of PURE Bliss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
