We are all sick in the head. I don't ever go into a dealership and not come out thinking about a new bike...this one? that one? different model? I have worked hard and spent a ton of $$'s getting my bike how I want it and still I go through this agonizing mental process.
Why?
I always walk away, get back on my perfect Roak King and seem to feel much better when I go home and check the balance in my bank accounts.

Maybe this will work. Denim black is starting to be everywhere. You dont want denim black. It get water spots and stains on it you cant get out and it eventually fades out pretty bad. Plus your bike is all shiny and badass.

Do what your heart tells you friend. If the Road Glide speaks to you, buy it. Money doesn't mean jack if it is just sitting there. Use it to make you happy. If you have any doubts then stay with your spectacular Street Glide.

Honestly your current bike is bad *** looking in my opinion. If you need a new one then you need to get it. If so....how much you looking to get for your old one 'cause it sure is a nice looking scoot.

Are you bored with your bike? Personally, I never go to a dealer and even glance at the new bikes. I think you have new bike envy. It's easy to cure. Stay off here and ride yours

If you buy it, ride it back and forth in front of leohd's house. He's got a case of the fugly-itis something fierce
