I agree. I'll be going this route with mine. Starting to see some of these baggers out here in California ripping it through the canyons

Yes, they can be modded to "hustle" but it's still a bagger. BST wheels help any bike handle better, brake better and accelerate better. MOI is a real thing.

That RGS looks killer, especially that shot and angle!

Respectfully, some folks have been upgrading their baggers for some time. Upgrades from Ohlins Front & Rear, Bullet Proof Motors, Big Bore Motor work, Head Porting, Bigger TB, Dropping brand New S&S 124"+ Motors, Performance Headers/Pipes, Chain Drive replacement, Steering Dampeners, Reenforced Motor Brackets systems, etc, etc.

In Fact, my bros and myself have most have that stuff on our Rigs. Nothing better then a Comfy Bagger that handles like a HotRod Ripper!

We been known to leave some folks in the dust and let them catch up to us later in the day. Especially some of those "Wannabe" Club look bike Dyna guys! Or even those Big Tire "Look at me" touring bikes. Lol.

NOT Busting on Dynas, as some our bros on Dyna do the same upgrades on their rides.

We all are Performace junkies. Not just bikes, Cars, Trucks, Boats, etc.

Where did the inverted forks, calipers, and rotors come from on the Roadglide?

Have GlidePro rear mounts, Alloyart mid stabilizer, newish OEM front mounts; and with the 107 i have myself in the wobble zone in just about every bump. Talking with Zbros for some EXIT rear shocks and am looking at front fork options...

There are a few companies doing the inverted front baggers. I sort of enjoy the change in looks.
