The Official Roadglide Thread
RE: The Official Roadglide Thread
There is another SE Ultra scheduled for 07. They run them for 2 yrs before they change. I'm willing to bet that the 2008 SE will be a Roadglide. Hope they do one in orange/black/white again.

The owner of one of the two dealers I frequent has an 06 Roadglide with one of the "Jims" 120 ci motors in it. He is a firm RG person. Last year he had an 05 RG with a 117 ci 2038 cc motor in it. He let me take it out on the interstate and I burried the speedo way past 120 mph. He had a wind deflector like mine on it so I was laying on the tank and holding on to my sunglasses with my left hand. That's right, I was going at least 130 mph riding with only my right hand. The bike was like a bullet with no wobble at all. It was cutting through the air like a jet. The most stable ride I've ever had. I've had my glide over 120 several times with the same results. Don't worry guys, I don't ride like this all the time but when you get on a big inch motor you just gotta let it out of the pasture
. The last thing I heard from my dealer when I was pulling out of the lot on his 30+ thousand bike was "Ride It Like You Stole It."

"The Girls Get Prettier At Closing Time" as the Song Goes and this seems to be the case with the RG. As I learn more about this model and its performance and comfort, its getting a lot more desirable. I've always been sort of a independent, not always going with " THE CROWD" and the RG seems to fit that Catagory too. Hummmm...... hdman
