Is all I can say after finally doing it. After being a VTX'r for 2 1/2 years I started looking around for something else and fell in love with the looks of the Road Glide (Big thanks Chicago Spike-I followed you from VTXOA). After many changes of mind from reading way too much on the message boards and wandering what would happen first...getting fried from the heat or mentally disturbed from the transmission whine, I can honestly say I have never been this excited about any bike I have owned, granted i am still in the break-in period and yea its warm when stopped in traffic (cant remember any Motorcycle that hasn't been) at least this one doesn't have the high speed heater that kicks on when stopped in traffic that previos water-cooled bike had........Have not took any pic's yet but take a look at post from monstermile and I have his twin, btw good looking scoot monstermile..........For the record I LOVE my new 07 Vivid Black Road Glide and for all the whiners,,,,,Please find something to ride you will love, life is way too short!!!!
