Are you really trying to justify the cost of a HD?? They are all over priced.

The 10 fltrx is no different, supply and demand. Looks better than previous model, and Joe Clueless will feel more comfortable sitting on it in the showroom when he buys it without a test ride. Win win for MOCO. FWIW, I rode both, besides looks the only thing that was an improvement on the 010 was the exhaust bark.

Glad you think the played-out SG fascia is a plus. They could have at least come up with something new and original.

Quieter and weaker 5th gear

No tail light is not a good thing. First it is fuggin ugly w/o it and secons it is unsafe. And weren't you just bitchin' about how cheap they were for giving LED's in the rear and not in the front???

I'll give ya the headlight bezel. That is a plus.
yes nicer paint just subtle swooshes, tail light is brighter on the 10's since they are led and 2 instead of 1

i am wishing i'd had bought an 09 roadglide, in vivid black. but it's tuff to justify paying msrp for a bike that's already depreciated by a year. i'll stick with my streetglide for now.
