good luck, i went through the same issues, i went with the eglide classic with the quick disconnect tour -pak and it was the best decision i made. This has turned out to be the most important single purchase that has given me the most fun in my life.

I prefer the natural color engine on the 09 and earlier E-Glide Standard, much cleaner looking engine. With the $ saved, you can lower the bike, stereo, add what ever seat you prefer and tourpak when needed.

Default Glide?

I vote for the Classic or Ultra if you are going to ride with a passenger. I agree that it is easier and cheaper to take things off, than to have to pay and add on later.
Good Luck,
