Default New FLHX

The wife and I went looking at Street Glides on Friday and ended up buying one. We got an 09 in black pearl with ABS, cruise, and security. The dealership didn't have one in black pearl and didn't have any with ABS but they traded with another dealership for one. They are gonna deliver it on Tuesday or Wendesday. I'm pretty excited about having saddlebags and a radio. Plus my last bike didn't even have a windshield so the fairing will be a nice change.

Be excited, very excited. I went from three Road Kings to 08 FLHX and love it. No going back.
