Ducati to Electra Glide

Yep...you read it right! Now, after 13 years of cheatin' death on my beloved Duc, I've given up the fight & decided that comfort is now my priority. It's mighty nice to go for a lengthy ride with the wife & return without an aching back, numb ***, cramping knees, throbbing wrists, etc. Looks like 28 yrs of riding sportbikes could be a thing of the past for this Geezer! Found this 1 owner '03 FLHT EG Std w/9K unblemished miles on it & decided to finally take the plunge. Couldn't let this one slip away. In some respects, gettin' old is a bitch...but it also has its rewards.

Hey Cannon...maybe we're a little crazy, but at least we'll be comfortable while we watch our sportin' buds contorting to relieve their pain! Oh well, God bless Ducati...Rossi on the Desmosedici in '11 oughta be a sight to behold!

Welcome to the dark side. Once you start thinking about stereo upgrades and whether to buy a black or stainless drink carrier, you have passed the point of no return. The next step is drooling oatmeal down your chin while listening to the farm report on the radio.
