Hey, I too have the white gold pearl 08. Man Keep that bike and have the dealership bore yours to 103. It is less than a grand and keep that bike and 9 more grand. I rode a 2011 Ultra last week with a 103 and my 96 with Rineharts, Fuel Pak and Screaming Eagle air cleaner felt faster. The ride is not that much better. I have replaced wheels to a 16 rear to 18 front. That make all the difference in the world.

Keep your bike.

Yeah Papi, thats a great suggestion. Better yet, get one of FuelMoto's new 107" kits installed!! Then go 18", 19", 21" custom front wheel and matching rotors from www.hogpro.com. It will feel better than new ...and you still get to have the rarest color on a Street Glide out there! I have to agree with Yorkshire... my "tweeqd and tuned" 96" runs as good if not better than the stock 103".

The white hot denim paint is different from the other denims. Instead of flat, it's more like a semi gloss. Should be easier to clean than the flat colors.

I looked at a White Denim bike this weekend and it just didn't do it for me. It looks like they forgot something.

I am in the in close to the same boat papi. We just got the White Denim Fat Boy Lo in yesterday and I was getting the white itch when I heard they were doing it again on the Street Glide. Even working at a dealership it is a tough call for my first bike. It will be a Street Glide, I just can't decide White or Black Denim.
