I'm one of those guys! Had a '13 SG for only 2 months, granted I logged nearly 6000 miles in those two months so I got my monies worth for it and traded it "up" for the '14 SGS.
My choice, my money, my decision. No regrets and love the 2014. To each his own, if you don't like it, don't have the money, don't have the credit, whatever your reasons it's none of your business what someone does with their time, money, etc.
From: 12 year, Colombia, 4 years Mexico, currently In Kuwait, but Boston is HOME!!
Who cares about what others do, life is tooooo short. If ihad the $$$ I would buy a 2014 heritage in blue and white, but I dont, I could trade in both my bikes for it, but I wont, some dudes ride, some dudes like to say they ride, it matters not to me, I ride put 300 on jst yesterday, ride safe 0 -or 1000 miles.
It's really all about what you want to get out of the net.I see no value in a bunch of people telling me what I want to hear.I appreciate opinions,all of them,challenging your thought process is a healthy thing.
The only thing that ever drives me away from any discussion board is reading the same stuff over and over again.
I had a kawasaki for 4 months sold it bought a deluxe which i rode for 1.5 yrs and put a crazy amount of upgrades into traded it on a CVO convertible which I have had 1.5 yrs and just traded on a '14 SGS. All my riding buddies think I have more money than brains lol...but then again its my money

I'm glad someone finally said it. You see more bitching and complaining and passing judgement on here than anything else.
That is me. What the OP doesn't know is I have had two deaths in my family in the last few months. I also work 6 days a week so you can see that pleasure riding hasn't been a priority lately. So, unless you have walked in my shoes, or are paying my bills, please keep your opinions to yourself.
Last year I bought a 12 Dyna Wide Glide after putting a little over 100 miles in a few weeks I knew it wasn't the bike for me, so I traded it for a 13 Fatboy Lo, put a bunch if mods then six months later I decided I wanted a bagger. So I sold the Fatty and bought a 13 street glide. I'm very happy with my decision, some of my friends tease me a little but it's my money and I work hard for it, so who gives a flying eff if a person decides to trade up. Just my 2 cents!
I was at a dealership in Little Rock today and two of the sales reps told me the story of a gentleman who purchased a 2013 Street Glide 3 months ago and traded it in last week on the new 2014 Street Glide (he only had 113 miles on the 2013 FLHX). I actually saw his old bike and they had a price of $19,600 on the 2013.
Someone who only rides 113 miles in three months should probably just stick with what they have. I test drove the Street Glide Special and I still did find that much special over the 2013 bikes. The new seat alone made the ride very uncomfortable.
I don't get it either. I just went to the local dealer convinced I would buy a 14 limited. I just couldn't get excited. The only thing that really impressed me was the new latches on the bags and the tourpak. I don't care for the new radio at all. I drove my 09 home.
