Default RE: Shopping

Thanks for the feedback. I don't think I have seen a bike (including my X) that owners don't bitch about. Some reviews I read on the 96" made it sound like it was killing people with heat. The thoughts I have found on this board clear things up a bit. My favorite is the RG (not sure why) but honey likes the Pearl and navy UC. We all know if mama is happy everybody's happy, so that may be the way we go. It will be nice to know just what to do to make it right, out of the box and who knows, maybe they came up with some cool new stuff for 08. We will know for sure in a few weeks.

Thanks again and I will continue check the board for advice before the fact.

spiz out.

Can't go wrong either way but if it were me betwen those two bikes it would be a orange roadglide but I ride solo (whife has her own ride) so the electraglide may be a beter buy for you it comes with a tourpack.
