Default Thanks Street Glide Owners

After reading all your posts and drooling over all the great pics, I went and traded in my 2011 wide glide on a 2013 Midnight Pearl Street Glide. I've been riding for 35 years and have never felt so good on a bike. Smooth and powerfull with the 103 c.i. Thanks for all the input and cant wait to put some miles on this bagger. Will post pics when I get a chance. Thanks again.

Your welcome.

I came from a Fat Bob to the Street Glide.
As good as the Fat Bob is/was, the SG is just perfect for us.

I also went from a Fatbob to a SG. I don't regret it one bit. I may get me a Sporty to hop up to run around on as a second bike but will always have a Bagger in the garage.

There is a reason why the SG is the best selling touring model, now you know why. Congrats.
