Default I'm ruined.....

A buddy and I were going riding yesterday, but he still had some stuff to do before he could leave. He told me to take his Road King out for a ride while he was finishing up. Man, I am totally ruined now. I love my FXRS, but this thing road like a dream. I definitely see a bagger in my future now...

Yep - Road Kings have a way of doing that to you! But Christmas is so far away - it would make a great Thanksgiving present from the Great Pumpkin!

Ha ha ha - oh man do I know your feeling! After riding my chopper for over 10 years I visited a friend in CA and he rented a bagger for me to ride. 3 months later I ordered one and just love it. Once you have your own you too will wonder what took you so long! : )

Welcome to Cruiserville! No wind on the chest, able to cruise miles and still feel great at the end of a ride....

The funny thing is, I was looking at buying a new Sportser and this guy told me that I would never be happy with that. So I bought the FXRS from him. His Road King is not for sale....

I am planning on going to the local dealers Demo Days in two weeks. I hope to ride all the various baggers that they have, but I'm leaning towards a Road Glide.
