Sounds like my story. That Fatboy was cool but the Electra Glide is sooo much more comfortable on long rides. Easier to carry more stuff too.

Thanks for the welcome everyone! I traded a '08 Softail Custom that I bought in August and put 3,700 miles on for a '08 Road King Classic in Crimson Red Sunglo. I'm a little disappointed I was only able to put 270 miles on the RK over the weekend. I already like it much more than the Softail. The Road King just feels right. I don't regret the trade one bit.

I've already put HD lowering shocks on it, and got a detachable backrest for the Mrs. Hopefully the backrest won't be on the bike much because I bought the Mrs a 883 Low the same day. Tomorrow I plan on ordering Rinehart True Duals, PCIII, Arlen Ness Big Sucker, and Wild 1 508's. That should get the necessities out of the way. Then it'll be on to tastefully chromin' it out, without goin' overboard.

Here's some pictures I took today when I got home from ridin' in the twisties for a little while. They're not the best pictures, but they're all I have right now. I'll be sure to post some more pictures when I get the other stuff put on.







Here's the Softail Custom I traded in. I traded it on Friday after work, they put it on the floor yesterday, and there's already a hold on the bike. It musta caught someone's eye pretty quick.
