Need Advice
Well, the saga has almost come to a close on my 2008 Electra Glide Classic. After my bike being in the shop for almost a month, the dealer has agreed to give me a new bike.So, now I need your advice. Do I go with another EGC or do I go with a Road Glide. I loved my EGC for the 600 miles it actually ran, but am also drawn to the unique look of the Road Glide.Feel free to comment as you feel fit.

The bike for no reason all of sudden loses all throttle response and goes into limp mode. They have replaced every major component more than once and still get codes they can't clear.

Road Glides are easy to buy and tough to sell. The best buy in the Touring Family is the EGC.

Also, they do not have a Tour Pak, saddlebag guards, fender trim, etc. Not to mention a limited color choice with no 2 tone option. Plus that fairing is butt ugly. I rented one in upstate NY and rode it through New England and Canada. Those stories about how they handle like a dream on the Interstates is BS. They handle the same as an EG.
