You can always get a Bob for a second bike later in life. A Touring rig should be the #1 ride.

Go for it ! I would see what kind of deal they would give you on a trade , But if you can afford it keep it , but to be honest you won't be riding it much after you start riding that sweet street glide.

You may as well just get rid of the Dyna because once you have a touring bike you will never ride the dyna. Even tho they are fun to ride

keep the dyna, you know its a blast, buy the glide you will love it...each has their own personality...the dyna goes from bar to bar with more attitude, you can travel further on the glide with less attitude.

Another vote for the Street Glide from me. I had another bike when I bought my SG. Said I would never sell it as it was my first bike. 7,000 miles later on the SG I had ridden the other bike less than 200 miles. Decided to sell it and apply the money to my Street Glide. I have never regreted that decision.

Ride Safe,

Mike
