Talking Pulled the trigger.....

Well, it's official... I'm now a member of the "Fugly Owners Anonymous".
Swapped the 07 Street Glide in on it Saturday... dropping it off this evening to get everything I bought with it... the seat, backrest, windshield, cams, pipes, a/c and tuner put on.... so far... I'm loving me some Shark nose!!

Wait, I mean... Man I screwed up!!!!.. these things handle like crap, and are ugly as I don't know what!!!!! (Can't let everybody know how good these things are!! )

Now I just have to change my frickin' screen name..... oh well..... guess I'll do that when I get a chance to go through everything.

Shhh ! Stop telling everyone our secret. Leave your screen name alone so you dont attract attention to the Road Glide. Its cool riding the best touring bike HD makes without everyone else knowing about them!

Welcome to the Shark Tank, if you have not already done it browse www.roardglide.org for Shark only info, its also a great site.

Enjoy your new bike.

Thanks

A buddy of mine traded his Softail Blackline in on one only in denim black... I rode his down the road and back... maybe 10 miles... the next weekend I bought the last one they had on the showroom floor.

HA I just can't wait to get it back and actually be able to hear the thing!!The wind noise in my ears is louder than the friggin bike!! I never realized just how much I payed attention to the pipes on the SG to know what gear I'm in.. or need to be in... but that will all be remedied by this weekend.
