Default Difference Between EG and SG

Trying to find the major ride differences between the EG and the SG. Have owned Road Kings and Ultra's before but have never been on a SG.

Lower shocks on the sg, and no tour pack. The sg also has a nice rear fender treatment. And, comes in a solid color, no two tone or pin striping, that I have seen. Painted saddlebag locks, as well. IMO, the sg is just a more aggressive, sweet looking ride.

EG comes with the passing lamps or running lights, SG doesn't.

EG more of a true touring bike while the SG is a more stripped down version and a little more sportier!!!

SG is basically a RK Custom with a fairing

SG also has the different gauge faces, I believe - good look. It also has the over-sized wind deflector instead of a windshield. I switched from a short windshield to that deflector, BTW, and my wife says the wind increased significantly for her.
