Default Streetglide

I am going to get a Streetglide. I plan on changing the pipes right away, and want the Denom black. Is it worth getting the 2010 over the 2009? Also will I get a better deal on a 09?

No, actually the 2010's and the 2009's are the same price right now!!

IMO, i'd go with the '09. I like the duals more than the 2 into 1 and like having a tail light on a bike like the street glide. Lots of dealers in my area are knocking $1000 or so off the remaining '09s. Hard part will be finding the color you want.

The 09's are more expensive than the 10's because they are harder to find at the dealers.

I got $1500 off sticker on my 2010 SG. Tale a look at the rear fender, I prefer the clean no tailight look of the 2010. Plus they sell a plug in module that allows that slotted fender light to work as a brake light as well if you wish. The exhaust 2 into 1 generally provides the most increase in performance. Plus if you are gonna add slip ons, you only have to buy one. If you were gonna buy true duals, 09 or 10 would be the same. Down the road newer will be worth a bit more when you sell or trade it... Good luck

Default Abs

Does the ABS really work. Dealerships are saying it is up in the air on this question.

Pick a color to pick the year. Only major difference between years, besides exhaust, is the fifth gear whine is gone on the 2010.

And yes, the ABS really works.

Ditto, If you can find what you want in an 09 go for it! I prefer the dual pipes also.
