Default New dude here

I changed my kawasaki ZZR 1200 forum to this one. Kind of miss the thing. But when I open my garage and see the beauty of a 2011 street glide...Fugget about it!!!...bought it for $12500 with 17k miles...perfect condition. Im 6 foot...and i need 12" bars...a badlander seat...extended footpads...and BAM slip ons!...I take donations fyi!!!!

Yes...I hung a mirror to see both sides at once!

Removed all scratches and swirles.

Congrats on your new (to you) SG. It's a great looking bike that I'm sure you're very proud of.

"Yes...I hung a mirror to see both sides at once!" - Yeah,,, I noticed that right off the bat and smiled. There's one of the differences between the two bikes that you'll notice right away. When you walked away from your Kawi, you probably seldom looked back. When you walk away from your Harley, you will always look back.

Enjoy your new ride
