Could use some more info - it would be a shame to buy a Road Glide to ride 350 miles a year. That's a nice DAY on a Road Glide!

Keep your softail.....and leave the Road Glide for someone that
wants to ride it and not just admire it

If money is not an issue. Buy the Roadie and keep the Springer. Sell the one you ride the least...or not...

Both. I love the springer softails, mostly for the way they look. Classic bikes, and I'd have one in my garage if my lovely wife would only see the benefit to me having a second bike that I would only ride on warm summer days around town.
