Default I pulled the trigger




I upgraded to a 18’ sgs this past week. It was a bittersweet moment parting ways with my Nightster and fat boy, more so the Nightster. But ultimately I’m very happy with this black beauty.

Very nice! Different ride, but over time, I don't miss the lack of weight as comfort is to be relished. I still can enjoy "riding hard", although different, gives a similar thrill.
