My buddy and I were just at a dealer this weekend and saw one of these, Black denim with the red pin striping. It's an awesome looking bike and makes me wish I had waited another 6 months to buy (well almost )
The RG sure does take a bit to get used too, but now I've seen them it has grown on me and that Black denim is just the right color.
I say do it, you can't take the money with ya so you mine as well spend it!
Keep the SG. You'll get over this impulse buy. Remember it's only 9 months or so till the 2011 models hit the showroom. You don't have any idea what that might bring. I'm hearing some serious rumors about a liquid cooled Road Glide to be the first to break into the Touring Family. How am I doing?
You're always going to see another bike that you think you want more than the one you already have and that's ok, it's only natural but remember it's cheaper to keep her... The Ultra Classic is a great bike and will give you many years of great riding and good times, is it really worth it to sell? I had an 06 that was paid off and made the mistake of trading on an 07 because I had to have it, traded the 07 for an o7 Springer. Sold the Springer and bought the same color 2010 as my 06 so back to where I was four years ago and lost thousands of dollars over time in which I could have upgraded the engine and repainted. It's up to you dude, everone wants a newer harley but does it make financial sense? The days of buying a Harley, riding it for a few years and selling it for what you paid for it new are long gone since the market is flooded. Just check out craigslist, people are damn near giving away their bikes. I just wish I had the extra cash to pick up another one...

Hmm - If I were your wife I'd be kinda worried ;-). Do you have the same reaction every time a good looking 20 something walks by. I call it an infatuation. (well you did say try to talk you out of it right). Of course to over extend the analogy there's no such thing as polygamy when it comes to motorcycles!
