Hello All,
I'm currently eyeing a late model or new street glide. My question is would a touring bike fit my needs. My current bike is a 2011 Super Glide Custom with lots of $ in add on's. I commute daily 52 miles solo and ride two up almost any other time. Split between highway and city. I like my current bike but features like ABS and locking storage are very appealing. So, in your opinion is the cost worth the benefits?

For me it was - rent one for a day and put it through the paces, see what you think. You're Dyna is going to be a bit more nimble if that's an issue, but you just can't beat the touring bikes if you ask me. Good luck on your decision.
