Rode my first bagger yesterday 09 SG

Man, you guys have it made and every time I go in I get a better deal. Still 2 months to go on the Sporty buy back. Probably go with cruise and stage one to wake it up a notch if I do it. Nice ride!

Come on, we need more detail, was it awsome or what? I think the 09 touring bikes give you the feel of a much smaller bike, if that makes sence. The handling makes it feel much lighter. So what color are you interested in?

Thought I was in a Caddy, Never rode a bike with a fairing what a difference from the windshield on my sporty! Suspension is excellent the bike feels like it has a low center of gravity and handled very well. Only got to go 4-5 miles so I just got a taste , yum I like the taste

Color is a hard one, looked at the red sunglow ( wife likes it) they did'nt have a blue pearl, I like black but I've been ridin black.

Whatever you do... DO NOT ride a RG. You will NOT like it.

Just messing. SG is a great bike. I had an 07 for a while. Good luck choosing.

I just picked up my 09 FLXH last Monday, trading up from my 06 Dyna Low. I havn't ridden the 09 yet, but I've demmo'ed the 07 and 08 and fell in love with it. Now I just have to wait for the snow to melt so that I can ride my new bike!
