I am with Steve, after 30 years of riding everything else and 10 years of riding nothing, I finally have what I wanted all along, a Harley Davidson. It is not new, but it is exactly what I wanted and riding or just looking in the garage never ceases to put a huge grin on my face. Life IS short, enjoy it!

Couldn't be happier with mine, actually was happy with the last 3 bikes I owned over 25 years

Just did an evening ride up the Columbia river on the Oregon side. Beautiful warm day cooled off when it got dark. Hardly noticed. I love that fairing and especially some music for the ears. Still breaking the bike in. Added another 100 miles to the ticker. Life is good. This is what riding is all about!

Thanks to everyone who chimed in about how much you enjoy your bike.

BTW, I am one who came here to see what others have been doing to upgrade their bikes. I love to see pictures. I will admit that I'll post if I have a problem. At this point I have none. None at all.

Steve

Now I am just trying to keep my SG for a while and ignore the Ugly RG that keepsyelling at me when I ride bydealers.[sm=escape.gif]
Resistance is futile!

Good change of pace, it good to see some positive opinions in this post. I love my SG, and the Dyna I had before it was great. I don't have a heat issue or a clattery trans, I'm now over 13,500 trouble free miles, and I'm loving it.
