You're gonna love the Glide. Won't be no going back to any other bike. I would reccomend the electronic cruise control. Had it dealer installed when I ordered my bike. The only bell or whistle I've learned to appreciate.
Ride safe Bro!

I just did the same, I traded my 06 RKC in on an 08 EGclassic gotta say I love the bike!! favorite aspect of my 08 so far would be the 96 engine and six speed tranny, although the Brembo brakes are a close second, i like the way the calipers look. Good call, I think you will love the bike.
