LOL.....You better take a good look at her!! Jumping off that sportster onto an Electra Glide, she won't want to quit riding. Thats an awsome upgrade for sure. She should be 100% satisfied.

I love mine but like you know the slow parking lot speeds may want to cause tip over...... They are a heavy bike but oooooooh so fun.

If the trade is for her she will be high for days, if for you she may not be happy giving up her riding.

many issues with the injectors on that year... make sure it has the 25 degree ones already installed and all the ECU updates.

Injector upgrade is the only thing I know of with early 06 models.
