I absolutely love my 2011 Fat Boy...my first HD after riding for 32 years. Which touring model would the group think I should look at for a second bike? Not as a replacement as my FB is a keeper!

That's a loaded question......depends on your style and what you like, there are a lot of different opinions out there, and I'm sure you're going to see some of them, lol.

If you're going to keep teh 2011 Fatboy then the logical thing would be to get a full blown touring bike. Ultra Classic. No point in getting a Road King, Road or Street Glide.

SE Ultra Classic, you get all the bling and the 110 motor along with just about every creature comfort HD makes for a bike.

Now ask a harder question!

I tossed this question around for months. I ended up with a Limited. For the money it is the best deal in the EG lineup. The RGU really does ride well on the highway, but I was not digging it in town and I ride in town often.

Your best bet is to test ride anything and everything you think you might enjoy. Take some back road, stoplights and highway on the route. You are the best judge for your next bike.
