RE: Street Glide vs EG Classic
Ive had a ultra classic and a SG. I perfer the SG ,for its combination of being a touring bike but at the same time having somewhat of a street rod look. I like the handling of the street glide better. It feels more sporty. That being said. The only reason I got the SG is that my ultra was stolen at bike week and I wanted to try something different. Was really very happy with both! (see pics below, ultra is the first pic) If I were on the fence ,I would rent and ride both!! Good luck!

Once you do the modifing to an EG Standard you had just as well got the StreetGlide.
Lights, lowering kit, powercoated bag latches, flhx tank dash, and the rear fender treatment led lower lights..
Also the custom gauges.
There are differences, and they are not suttle, the powder coated engine and chrome accents. (Not Polished Aluminum)
I was going to go this route, and traded it for a Ultra, the ultra had a bent frame, (Screwey Dealer) so I got the SG...
Took a real hit on Three bikes in 4 months, but I've got what I want now...

Here in Michigan they have been selling them for a $1000 under MSRP....Do you like to ride in the almost cold, come on up here and get the one you want, drive it home. Sounds like a good excuse to ride to me

RE: Street Glide vs EG Classic
Alot of SG owners are putting passing lamps and removable tour packs on their scooters, in effect turning them into EGC's. You can always black out stuff and lower the rear on a EGC BUT it's still not a STREETGLIDE
