Another thing that bike has that's not in the catalog is the black headlight trim ring.

That bike was purchased at Old Fort by a friend, some of the parts have been powder coated.

We're trying to figure that one out. Looks like August is when we will hit the road to somewhere. I still want to knock off the New England states, but that might be a better Fall ride. We want to get back out west again - maybe dig deeper into Utah and Arizona and New Mexico. THen again, going to the Sun Highway among other rides in that area is on our list as well. Decisions decisions.

I was just out in Vegas couple weeks back and rented a '14 electraglide and had a blast. Wife loved the comfort but not the price. We'll be sticking with old faithful for a while. Congrats on your new glide.

Congrats on the NEW bike. I also just purchased a NEW 2014 SGS.... But I came a little farther than a 2011. I traded in my 2001 EG Std with 141K on it

HOLY CRAP is there a difference... Im Loving the NEW Bike...
