Go for it. The options are limitless. I went with the SG Ultra look which I like since it is a lot cleaner looking than the Ultra's.

Here we go! It was a matter of time until team fugly chimed in.

Although I was down at the stealership yesterday and those fugly's are looking pretty good! Regardless, the SG's are still a great choice.

I wanted a Night Train since they came out with it in 1998.....wasn't able to get one until 2008.

Ten years I waited to get that bike. Yet, I ended up trading it for my SG after just 2 years.
Not because I didn't want my NT any less than ever....just that I decided I wanted the SG even more.

I miss the NT, but have never regretted it. My SG rocks.

Well picked up the badlander seat today. Im really pleased with the position it puts me on the bike. The only complaint i have is the seat seems to have alot of wrinkles in it.
