Thumbs up 09 rg
My wife & I became the owners this morning of a new to us 09 well equiped black pearl Roadglide to replace our 2000 RG which got totaled. The improvements over the 2000 RG we were riding are much better than I believed would be the case. It was a chilly ride home from Smoky Mountain H-D and an even colder ride to work tonight but with my heated gear it was a lot more tolerable. It sure felt great to be back in the saddle again even if my toes were frozen. Hope to have some pics. of the new ride soon. Stay warm out there.

Congrats on the new bike. Beautiful area you live in up there and close to one of the best Harley shops in the country in my opinion. I wish I lived in East TN just so I could visit the Maryville shop more often. Enjoy the new Road Glide!
