The stock SG is 2K less than the stock Ultra. If you add pipes,security, cruise, pass and drivers backrest to the SG, they'd be about the same price.

Hey JD, just hav'n fun. One thing for certain is that your RKC IS one fine look'n ride! I love my Ultra for the long haul comfort and storage, but their WILL be an RKC parked in the shop along side it someday.

The Electra Glide Std costs : 18.995,00 € (ą 27.850,00 $)

Is there some reasons to explain that ?

Thanks for the info's...

Hi ATC2,

Do you really know the "famous" belgian waffles ? ... " Les gaufres de Ličge"... ?

If you insist, I can give you a "few" waffles and you give me a RKC... fair deal ?

Other specalities from Belgium : Belgian chocolate (the best), belgian Beer , belgian french fries (the only one)...

Where is this happening at? Not on HD's site and certainly not at any dealer I have been to. Anyone that pays over msrp is an idiot.
