Default Hope i didnt make a mistake!

Picked up my new 2012 Street Glide!

Traded in a RKC I really liked for it. Got stardazzled by the new frame, cleaner rear end, 103, bigger rear tire, stereo...

I had the King dialed in and the SG, not so much yet.

Just ordered a C&C solo for it, which should get me off the tank.

Time will tell....

Dial it in, you'll be happy ...... traded my 2008 Road King for my 2012 and will probably add this one to the permanent stable right next to the '79 shovelhead. Some bikes just grow on you, this Street Glide is one of them for me.

You never really know unless you've test ridden or rented one and know for sure.....nothing all of us haven't gone thru, don't sweat it and enjoy it......it's only money

I hope to have a Street Glide one day, but would like to add it to the stable with my King if the stars align in my favor. The Road King and Street Glide have enough differences for being touring bikes to have both if one desires and can swing it. I agree with the others, you'll get the SG where you want it. Look back to when you first bought your RK.
