Unclekunkle, are those bag gaurds the ones for RKs they show in the cat. I wanted to add some gaurds but I think the graphics make the regular ones look funny

They look like the "Nostalgic Saddlebag Guard Rails"

Default since 1970 something

I've been wanting to ride one since they first came out in the late 70's.

Default '09 in Orange???

Anyone with an '09 in orange? If so, how about posting some pics? I plan on buying an '09 -- haven't yet decided whether it will be the Road Glide or a RKC. Saw a RG at the dealership today in Vivid Black (very sweet), but I'm also interested in the orange.

Thanks.

Default Road Glide FEVER

After riding for 20 years and cutting my teeth on a half dozen Sporties, Softails, etc. I finally took the plunge for a 2002 RG (my 1st Geezer bike) and LOVED it. Rode from Chicago to El Paso like nothing in 2 1/2 days. Made the mistake of selling it (in EP where bikes get top dollar) to get the 2007 Street Glide. Not that there is anything particularly WRONG with the Street Glide - they look cool and ride nice, but it just wasn't as good as my Road Glide on any given day.

Finally managed to sell it without losing my a$$ and bought a new 09 Road Glide. After 150 miles I LOVE IT! (I know that's not alot but I am in NE Washington these days and the weather SUCKS right now). I did get the fairing lowers and they were worth every penny.

I will post pictures of 'my Precious' soon as I can borrow a cam!

Stay alert - stay alive!

Here is my new one! I love it. Coming off of a 07 Street Glide. That was a great bike but this one is so much better IMO. Added Ultra tour pak, CB and intercom, Stage II 103" with 255 cams, SERT, and Rush Slip Ons.

I got mine about 4 months ago, and love it. Its really a blast now that the blower is on. Ordered some RC 21"& 18" wheels, chrome forks & cowbells,rotors and lowering kit last week. Gonna make her purty for when spring rolls back around.
