Default I need help

The wife and I rode up to the local dealership this past Saturday and there she was Black Denim Road Glide Custom...OMG that is one bad azz bike. Then to make matters worse I had a local guy make a pretty good offer on my Street Glide. So, guys I need your help. Talk me out of selling my scoot to buy a new one. I have a pretty good list of reasons not to sell but that RG is so sexy...please help!

Think of all the equity you already have in your bike and the fact that you will take a huge depreciation as soon as you roll out with the new one. also what about all of the aftermarked products to make your bike uniquely yours. do you really want to start over again?

Thats all I got. It is pretty much a matter of how much you love your bike. It sounds like you are very happy so why ruin a good thing, right?

I don't know, that would be a tough choice since your bike is pretty damn bad ***!

Since I can't help you there...how much for the wife?

Just think of all the new bling you'll need to customize a new bike.

Uh yeah, you do need help if you're expecting a rational answer from this sick bunch....we are just as irrational as you are LOL. You have a beautiful bike no doubt but something is drawing you to the Road Glide and the timing of the good offer on your SG looks like a sign to me....

Allen,
You'll have to find someone to re-do the seat on the new ride....

I'd keep the SG, but my bike is 10 years old and just how I want it.
