She says were to young for the Classic look.
I wondering at what age you got to be to buy 1?

HA HA that's so funny, thats what my wife said when I happened to glance at an electra glide "you're not old enough for that!" She also said I was to young for the road king, I guess she thought my super glide made me look younger LOL. I didn't know there was an age criteria for bikes But she really does like the RK though (good for me) Mad it easier to convince the household finance officer!

T Prescott, yeah, the saleman at fayetteville said bring raliegh's deal to them in writing. I said, thats a lot of gas to go back and forth, and what...like I was making it up?!? I KNOW they wouldn't have beat it, especially with the 500 in biker bucks. Now I gotta go back to them and cancell my super glides extended warranty contract...that should be fun

I nearly bought a SGC when I was shopping. A test ride on the new bikes really helped me pick the touring bikes. Hearing that you are much happier with the RK makes me feel even better about stepping up to the FLHT. Great bike for sure!

Oh and a cure for the 5th gear chatter is simple - take off your windscreen![sm=smiley17.gif] I replaced my stardard's windscreen with a Street Glide wind deflector and now I can't hear the tranny... Kinda funny really. Makes me wonder what else I won't hear....

Easy now, I'm only 34 and riding an Ultra. LOL

That's the coolest thing about a Harley, the minute you hop on, your age instantly doesn't matter anymore...
