Default Adding to my stable...
I have to declare first that I LOVE my Street Bob.... Having said that however, with the 16" Carlini apes on it doesn't make it the most comfortable bike for long rides... We went on the 9th Middle East HOG rally 2 weeks ago and i was literally exhausted coming back... The next one is 3 times further away than this year's. So what did i do? The moment i got back I ordered a 2009 Red Hot Denim Street Glide. It gets here late January I am so excited!!!!

Congrats. I had a Dyna and a Softail and one other bagger in between. This time around I bought the Street Glide and it's the best bike I've owned.

You will love (and ride in comfort) the Street Glide.

The ride i took is not that long as compared to rides you guys take in the states, it was 340 km each way... We start off on a large highway that turns off into the desert followed by windy roads through the mountains back into the coast.... awesome trip.... I know it would have been much more comfortable on a glide....

Thanks for all the welcomes~~~
