Default I'm bagging now

I just took delivery of my new Street Glide Special this weekend. I traded in my 2009 Sportster.

All I can say is WOW, what a difference.

I had been contemplating a bigger bike for a couple of years and the finances decided to comply this year.

I put about a hundred miles on it this weekend, and loved every minute of it.

I'm not typically an orange kind of guy, but I loved it on this bike. My wife was shocked I didn't get black or silver.

Sorry to hear you got rid of the Sportster, hope you like the new road sofa you must be proud to be in the geezer glide cult, make sure you keep that checkbook handy because you will need alot more mods on this bike than the Sportster, Welcome brother and praise the chrome gods.
