Default Well I did it!

After many happy years on the SG and 94000 miles, it was time for an upgrade, so on to a new 16 Road Glide. Have wanted on for a while, but always hesitated since I loved the SG so much.






And now the list starts again ..... LOL

Happy Gliding!

Congrats man! It'll be interesting to hear your take on the "SG vs RG" debate after having many years and miles on the SG.

I traded my Night Train in last July for a new RGS and at first, I was pretty upset. I was just too used to "my bike" to appreciate a new one. After changing out the stock bars, doing the stage 1 and a getting a few thousand miles on it, I'm now really happy with my decision.

Good of luck on completing your list of mods!!

Well Drumster,

The SG has had it's day in the sun with 94k miles. It's time to enjoy your new RG.

A fine looking motorcycle. Congratulations. The smile says it all. Ride safe.
