......... there are several models that would give you the ride yer looking for
....... to make it easier for newer riders to remember, they all start w/the letters F L T R
..... just go to the dealer & tell'm you want to test ride the F L T R's ( X, U or SE ) & you will not be sorry !
..... if you're looking for pre-owned, try the '09 F L T R I ....... come to the Darkside ! .....

just take your time, study everything you can about each model, and make an educated purchase. this forum is a great place to find that information. i am very happy with my streetglide, although a roadglide was considered. i'm so happy with what i got, i can't see any reason to trade it off. good luck with finding the bike you want.

Try an Ultra. Very comfortable for the long hauls and nimble enough for the short jaunts.
