My main concern is wind turbulence. I am 6'1"s tall. Is the Road Glide much better in this regard?

If your main concern is wind turbulance then you don't want a Street Glide

I had to make the same choice. I went with the RG and I don't regret it one bit.
Ride them both and then make up your own mind. They are both great rides. For me the RG had the edge on the SG.

I would say Ride them both and then decide, they are both Great Bikes but i went with the RG because of the Comfort on the Bike at my Size.

RE: Road Glide or Street Glide

What's your riding style? I rode both and ultimately went with the SG mainly because I felt like I could maneuver it better in tight quarters or slow speeds. The RG felt sluggish to me.
Besides, I really like the look of passing lamps and not the dual headlight look... [8D]
