I'm 43 and bought my first Harley (99 Road Glide) back in May. I went with the RG because of the frame mounted fairing, my Honda's had them. Someday i hope to be able to order a brand new one.

Used to ride my FATBOY and when on the freeway would always wonder how the guys on the UC could cruise by me at 80+. Got my UC this year and now I know how they did it. Go where you want at whatever speed. Biggest problem is not going fast cause you just dont notice. I ride further, in comfort and just love the trip. Thought of keeping the FATBOY cause I loved it. If I had I think it would have sat in the garage now.
