Default New Street Glide

Well, I'm riding with 11 other friends in North Georgia on the annual man trip and I came across an 09 Street Glide in Black Pearl in Dalton, Ga. The deal was so good I decided to trade my 08 in her. I absolutely love it, huge difference.

Nice enjoy!

I really don't want to drive an 09 because I'm liking the 08 too much and have already spent a ton on it for accessories.

Good luck with the newER bike. Some people just cant resist.....and I am usually one of them. The thing is though....my 08 SG is running so well, and I got it hooked up to about 90% of done-DONE-DONE! Sure I think I would like the 09' a bit better....but that little bit aint worth another bike payment. All my **** is totally paid...and the titles for both my bikes are in hand free & clear...I want it to stay that way for a while.
I can go new item by new item for the 09' vs. 08' and I am still happy with the 08'. The MoCo changed the frame around for 09' and to me that is the most interesting improvement they have made. To get my FLHX to handle like its on rails I installed a TWR Missing Link....outstanding product!

I put just under 300mi. on her Saturday, riding two up...me and my girl. I plan on going another 300mi. today....with the new SG Sundowner seat I (or her) have found our time/mile maximum limit before either of us get uncomfortable!
