The Streetglide and Roadking do not have the same suspension. The Roadking is 13" and the Streetglide is 12"...

Nice lookin' scoot.

Yeah, I know what you mean about the shirt. I just joined the local HOG group. I showed up wearing kevlar mesh overpants and a jacket from motorport, full face helmut, aerostich boots and gloves. All the other guys were in leather vest with the HOG patch on the back. I'm not sure how my riding gear will go over with them. It is not typical of HD riders. What can I do? I am a converted BMW rider.

I use to go fishing and snow skiing in your neck of the woods when I lived in SoCal.
Yes, lots of good roads through these hills and the fishing is great. I slowed down in the fishing department after the recent forest fire near me.
