JUST BOUGHT 08 EG CLASSIC
traded in my 06 RKC, hated to get rid of that bike but, after an 1800 mile tripe to Tennessee and back, I had to get a more comfortable ride. Anyway, the 08's are awesome. I love the "throttle by wire", although it takes some getting used to and the Brembo brakes are great. Bike actually stops when I grab a handful. The 6 gallon tank looks a little weird after staring at my RoadKing though, it is a lot fatter. Should call this model the "Fat Glide" although I like having the extra fuel. Only have 144 miles on it but love it so far.

RE: JUST BOUGHT 08 EG CLASSIC
Traded my RK for the Ultra for the same reason. I needed more comfort on long rides. I am very happy, even the seat and handle bars work for me. I've already taken a long trip (Ohio to Florida and back)and like everything about this bike. (Still stock)

So how comfortable is the 08 EG stock seat?

Much better than the 07s
Thought I would buy the back rest but haven't felt the need yet..
About 3500 miles so far.
