The Road Glide is a very good touring bike BUT I still prefer my Electra Glide. The Road Glide feels front heavy. High-speed freeway riding is better on the Road Glide but low speed maneuverability is superior on the Electra Glide. If the Street Glide were available for '05, I would have bought that for my wife.
