Street Glide, but the Road Glide Custom is really growing on me. Kinda wish at times I would have bought one over my Street Glide.

I ride an Electra Glide Classic, but I still have a heart for Road King (FLHR).

My favorite is whatever bike I own at the time. Let's see there was a 250cc Suzy, a Triumph Bonneville, a Kawazaki KZ 900, a Sportster XLH 1000, a '78 shovelhead Low Rider, a '91 Ultra Classic, a '96 Softail Custom and a '07 Road King Custom. Well, maybe I did not tour on all of them.

Default well.......

In 1982 I bought a brand new FLH Police Special and in 89 another FLHTC Classic and I just recently bought a 2009 FLHTC Classic. I just love those Classic's that look just exactly like a Harley bagger is supposed to look. No plastic lowers, no CB, no toaster, oops just a big ol' Harley Davidson with a top case for extra stuff. Sorry I drift away sometimes in the winter.

I like my Ultra Classic (my vote).

I also like the looks of the Street Glide.

I'd like to have a removable tour pak but I use the tour pak all the time.

I ride a 12 Street Glide, but if I had to choose just one for my use all around, I'd take the UC....has it all and can make the trunk and lowers detachable.....
RK would be my 2nd choice.....
Lots of others that a way cool, but all around touring it's the UC for me....sometimes wonder why I didn't get one this time...
