Default Which will make my RG more unique?

I know this is a what do you like question (which I hate) but here it goes. Which will make my 2010 Road Glide more unquie. Sinister bags and rear fender or 18" and 21" wheels. They are pretty close in price so take that out. I can't do both this year so I need to pick one.

six of one, half dozen of the other really. Most people are like you and eventually do both. Let me know if you need discounted forum pricing on anything, PM me or email me.

I'd go with the wheels. nothing makes a bike stand out more than a great set of wheels.

Did the wheels first on mine. Just another 105th with nice wheels. Did the bags and fender last winter. Big difference.

Bags and Fender.

You have a denim black bike, so all you need to do is black out the front forks and crash bar and you won't need new wheels. That will make your stock 18" wheel stand out.

+1 on Fender and bags. Me thinks that makes it stand out a lot more, especially when rolling.

Inevitably, someone will pull up beside you at a light or you will see one somewhere with a clone to your scooter.
