Know what you mean, rode a buddies SG around labor day last year and had a new SG 1 week later, 9/9/09. They are very nice, but you had better figure about another $1500 for a start right out of the box for mods; PC-V, a whole new exhaust as your new one will have a "cat in the head", and then you will need a free flowing stage 1 AC.
Wise choice...

Hmm...good point. Guess I could buy used but it would have to be from somebody I know.

Thanks everyone for not thinking I'm CRAZY. Seems like a lot of other people have been hearing the same thing...

Street Glide is the new Road King. Remember, the gods know what is best for you or they wouldn't be wispering in your ear. I don't think it can be matched in looks and additions (gauges, radio, etc). Just the best overall bike out there for covering almost every angle of the best of choices.
