ORIGINAL: rideon

Great review glider, hope I'am as happy as you when I pick up my new roadie!
Rideon...didn't know you were trading the in the Hotrod Ultra! I tell ya, I took a hard look at the Road Glides, before pulling the trigger on another SG, and it did ride nice. The 103" motor in that bike with the full suspension and open space between rider and fairing was tempting, but at the end of the day, it's still on the edge of the styling exercise for me. I almost bought one though, cause I've seen some VERY slick looking ones. Really really fun bike to ride.
