Default Another SG delima ??

So, if I buy a new SG, put cruise control, Sundowner 2up seat & backrest, 9" windshield on it, why not just get an EG Classic with quick detach tour pak kit and CC???

I know that makes sense, but dang it! those SG sure look good!!!

Looks/style are in the eye of the beholder. What dilema? You know what you want!

1. Stock seat on both EG and SG suck so new seat either way.

2. SG already comes lowered.

3. SG fender trim is cleaner and has unique LED's in rear.

4. You know you want it.

5. Just get it.

No dillema at all, just choices.

1st scenario: you pull into your local Denny's parking lot on your EG classic and the cutie 20 something waitress lets you know you are eligible for 50% off your meal.

2nd scenario: you pull into your local Denny's parking lot on your SG and the cutie 20 something waitress wants to know if you'll take her for a ride.

I bought the Street Glide and love it, but If I had to do it again it would be the EG Classic for about the same money. How much 2 up riding and how far do you plan to go on trips?
