You have to ask yourself what you will be using the bike for most of the time. That will answer your question as to whether a street glide or something more substantial.

The big difference is if you will ride alone most of the time. You will need to add a lot of parts to make a passenger comfortable on long rides

Bought my 07 SG new... never had a problem with it lol My wife loves it, she sits back and enjoys the ride!! Do get a good backrest for yourself and your passenger and a luggage rack.. I put my T-Bag on the rack... that with the saddlebags... gives us plenty of room. I'll even strap a tent & sleeping bags on the SG on occasion. Good bike, one of the best I've had. Right now I have my eye on a 06 SG... don't like the TBW, some do..some don't lol

After my crash I doubt that my wife will get on the bike again, I don't blame her,and I also will slow down big time, I am getting a bike because I love them so much, I will ride but not like B4.I am pretty sure that SG will do the trick....

You won't regret and you will probably thinking that you should have done it a long time ago.

Can you order the bike with 120R engine from the factory? Or that is something that you upgrade afterward?
