i have a 08 street glide with around 6000 miles on it. when i start it from a cold start. i feel like it drags or maybe takes longer than it should. my buddy of mine has a 06 glide and it starts and soon as you hit it. Is this something normal on the newer bikes?

You might want to check your battery.

Totally different starter, ring/pinion gear ratio, and primary ratio starting in 2007, as compared with the older bikes.

They start "different".... that's normal.
