New ride
 
Well my wife doesn't ride as much now and multi-day trips on the bike together are not going to happen so I traded my 2016 FLHTK for a 2017 FLHX. I went to the dealer(s) early last week to look at a used 2016 FLHXS and ended up riding it and a new 2017 FLHX, for me the M8 engine sealed the deal. I bought the Street Glide last Thursday but wish I had done it last year. Now it really is a tuff decision to decide which bike to ride the classic Springer (FLSTS) or the much quicker and agile Street Glide. Life is tough I know...

Good deal for you...enjoy that "new bike" smell!

The M8 is a much improved performer in a touring bike over the TC. The power delivery is much more linear and comes on earlier. I have been happy with mine for the first 10k. Congrats and enjoy your new scoot.
