Default Which One??????

OK, I've away for a while, sold the 06 Ultra for a "Our" bike....we like it a lot, but....now ready for a "me" bike....

Can't decide between a Street Glide or a Heritage....[sm=confused06.gif]

What to do, What to do......I love the looks of both.....I've owned several Ultras so the Street Glide wouldn't be entirely a "new Bike" owned a 93 FLSTN Cow Glide ( yeah, should have keep that one, but she left me stranded three times, had to go).....

So, whaddya think? Man, I'm having a hard time with this one....[sm=smiley13.gif]

You know what you like, and what you have had, and what your down to wanting...but if your asking I would go for the SG...I am not a 'B' motor fan at all....

I have an 07' SG, but if I could have a solo ride also I would get the new Fatbob.

If you are buying a '08, for just aound town, I might try a rocker or fatbob. But, between the two you have given us to choose from, I say the heritage. I test rode one, and if it had just been a bike for me, I might have gotten it. They are a really sweet riding bike. It isn't a rk, mind you, but still nice. BTW, a rk looks real sporty set up for solo riding. And, you can dress her up for more weekend type rides. I assume you have a Goldwing now (?), but a rk can be very versatile. Just a thought.
