Just to throw you a curve ball, have you considered an EG Standard? The StreetGlide is dropped, I believe 3/4" at the factory, probably using harleys lowering shocks, but I can't say for sure. If you gat an EG Standard you could drop the *** 1-1/2" using a SoLow kit, and retain the better ride of the longer shock. You would also have a similar profile as the streetglide. Just a thought to confuse you a little more. Good Luck

For me it would be a no brainer! If I was given the choice between a SG or NT, it's STREET GLIDE all the way!!!!!

Slammed,


I'm only 5'3". I bought a badlander seat. I sit flat foot on it know. I think it's a great bike. But buy what you really want, not what other people think you should buy. Also consider your needs as far as the way you are going to ride. Around town or taking long road trips.
