Congrats!!!!!!! Just traded my 07 SG on a 12 RGC myself and LOVE IT! But we have got to quit telling people how good they are or they are going to be everywhere you look, just like the Batwing bikes. LOL

Fairings just don't look right to me. Hope they do the job for you. Me, I like to see the street, so fixed fairing or not isn't relevant.

Just picked up mine in Black Denim on Saturday, traded up from an '06 Heritage Classic, and it's a world of difference.


Congrats.....
