Default should I trade?!?!?

I have a deal worked out right now to trade my 07 softail custom for a 2011 vivid black street glide. Should i do it???? And is the power pack really worth the extra money????

I here what your saying and I'm alot older than you than you but it's only a number. I had a total of 4 softails with the last one being a Rocker C.
I traded my Rocker C on my current 2010 SG and I must say I would never go back. It's hard to explain but if you make the move you can still have a great "look". There are lots of cool things you can do to a bagger. Just look around here and you will see. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Just wait for 2012 models, 103 will be the standard motor in all models.
