It's all personal, I understand. But if I may, I would like to throw out another perspective:
Once you mod your SG to a RG, it will loose a lot of value that you won't get back because people rarely want other peoples project bikes. Instead, since you got a smoking deal on the SG, sell it and use the profit from it for a Road Glide that will not loose so much value.
Beary
you will NEVER get out of it what you put in any of them...they don't care about modifications or accessories when calculating trade or sale value unfortunately.

never even looked at the post date boss ..
If it's up and open conversations can still be had I would think. ...
I'm on my way back from a ( big dealership buying event) 🤣 is why I commented. At that point in time it was relevant .
Thanks Left33. I am working on it. Figured I'd shoot a note asking for advice from guys that have done it or attempted it. With all the parts I'll be into this for $1500. Considering I got the bike for 12k with 8k miles on it back in 2015, I'm still in the money compared to buying a used Rushmore RG. I do all of the work myself and paint myself.
It's like when I asked "Can you put a Breakout Softail wheel on a 2009 Streetglide?" Lots of "Can't be done, Will be lots of money, You'll have to do a lot of work to make it fit." Guess what? Bolted right on with no mods.
I just read you thread and was wondering if you can assist me with a few questions.I just boight an accident 08 streetglide with and ebay special roadglide conversion. I can get a 2014 innerfairing and outer fairing and wondered if you had any input on if it will work before i get too deep in.Thanks
