Keep your Softail, and then get the SG. Then you have a choice of what and when to ride each. If that is not possible I would say SG, or maybe the Road King Classic........[sm=icon_cheers.gif]

If a one day rental has you that worked up over a Street Glide, for God's sake don't rent a Road Glide!................ At least not till you have the down payment..........

Rotflmao,, yea guys, I guess if the one day rental got me this excited, I am in trouble.
I had been looking at them, the ride just reinforced what I thought.

I don't know, guess I am not ready for an Ultra yet. I still want a bit of a "Sporty" feel, and the FLHX seems to fit the bill. I also have looked at the RKs but really like the SG,, so that is probably what I will go for.

DM is a pretty neat place, if I was active duty, I imagine it would be a great place to be stationed.
This is my second det here. The last time I got a ride in the back seat of an F-15... MAN,,, THAT was a ride for sure. Pictures on my Myspace page if you have one. http://www.myspace.com/jimtinderjr

Anyway, guess when I get home, I need to consider selling my FXSTS....

Just get the f-ing Ultra

It will be an Ultra when you get done with it
I hear you. All my bike needs is the Aux light and it is one.
