Did the same on my Fatty....twice, even with a fairing on it it was still tough. The Glide is a smoother/more comfortable ride and I think it handles better. Congrats on the new SGS.

I live in Flushing MI. By Flushing and Linden roads. I just hope the boys in blue do not start the nit picking. I am happy to be joining the touring form a few of the softtail boys seem to be tools. You post something over there and they either ignore it or try to discredit what you say.

They wanted my fatboy on trade but that is my baby first Harley that I have ever bought I am keeping that thing until I am dead. I have put way to much Blood Sweat and Tears into that bike to part with it.
I know the feeling, my 75 Shovel will be with me until my last breath but the Ultra eats miles like candy. Never rode like I'm riding now! Congrats, nt, sweet ride!
