If I had the money I'd have a Street Bob, Fatboy Lo, Streetglide, Roadglide, and an Ultra. All that whilst keeping my RKC. Oh and I've been thinking about adding a standard RK to the stable too
I like pretty much every HD. My dream bike is still a SG or UC CVO,and I will have one soon. For now I guess I will have to make due with a Limited. It's a hard life guys.
Im one of those your describing....hell $ being no option, I would have various Sport bikes for when I have the need for speed....but sadly thats not the case and I have to settle for the Best all around bike for most of my needs.
Just wondering if I am one of the few that suffer from being a Harley Davidson adulterer.
I own a 2005 EGC and I love it. BUT, I have to admit that I also really like most of the other models.
I'll be walking to the store and a RK or a Glide or a SG will drive by and I'll think to myself "wow, that is a sweet ride"
Is this sacreligious???? Do I need to go to the HD doctor???

Nope, not at all. I love the EGC, and rode RK's for 10 years before "stepping up" to a 'Glide. Most of the guys in my motor unit feel the same way about the EG too.
I recently had the opportunity to ride a friend's Superglide w/the stock 88, just SE pipes. WOW! With the lighter/smaller frame it felt like a dirt bike with an attitude. I wouldn't mind picking up something similar as a second bike, for days when I want a "back to basics" bike to hit the twisties on. But I wouldn't give up the Ultra, still the best "all around" bike in the HD stable.
You might find yourself buying a second HD one of these days. There is no known cure for the "Harley bug", except maybe more Harley's! But an RK or SG is very similar to your EGC, so maybe something in the Dyna series might be a better choice.
Enjoy your infection with the HD bug. I know that I do!
I not only like a few other HD models but love enduros/dual sports. I like mine orange and made in Austria personally but wouldn't balk at one from Germany.
While my Limited is about the perfect road steed I've loved riding dirt since I was 12 when I started out on an XR75.
Have a Street Glide now but I really loved my Deluxe. Wife was not comfortable on it as we have started taking longer trips. I also really like the Road King Classic but it just didnt fit me right when I test rode it.
Man if i was rich i would own a couple different Models that i like! Fatboy Lo which i already have. Then i would get a new Night rod special and really trick it out into a monster Muscle bike, And i would get a street glide, and probably get some kind of sporty and trick it out into a sick little bobber, and a Deluxe all old schooled out with 18 inch apes and sick long drag pipes! Oh and i would have a sick garage with all my bikes and Muscle cars in it! It would look like a road house with log walls and neon bar lights everywhere with a sweet custom floor and it would be heated of course and probably have a bed in it since id rather sleep there then my house! Crap man you got me dreaming!!!
