I will have you all know I just traded my "great" fat boy lo for a RGC.
I love it. AND I loved the fat boy. I just wanted a different ride and feel under me and I got it!!

Like the sayin goes, rubbin is racin. I still wouldn't trade my bike in for one, just not my cup of tea. Dont matter which one you pick, both are great touring bikes.

You are correct, both are great touring bikes.

Ride safe,

Anyone in the market for a decked out Red Street Glide?

Congrats!

Same thing happened to me! Dealer demo day on a Sunday, new RGC in the garage on Wednesday! Had to wait till Wed. because dealer didn't have what I wanted & had to make a dealer trade.
Unless your really ready to buy, don't ride one! LOL!

I had a bat wing and they are fine but I do like the way my RGU slices through the wind better.
