I went from a 2000 Carbed Deuce to a 2005 carbed Dyna Wide Glide now on to the Injected Road Glide. I love the Road Glide by far more than the other 2 but wish I could have got a carb on it instead. I may yank all that Injected crap off someday... I like carbs better!

Certainly don't regret going to the Touring model. But I'd seriously love to have my LowRider too! Out of all the bikes I've owned, it's really the only one I really wish I could have back. Two in the stable would be great, like mentioned above by Lee in Memphis. Lucky you Lee, wish we were all in that position. But if I have to have one...Go Touring if you're serious about doing lots of riding.

From '02 FXDX to '07 FLHX. The difference is huge. Although I could push the SuperGlide Sport a tad further in the twisties, the SG is almost as good (scraping foot boards) and much better at everything else. It's just more bike in every way.
