Default Jumped to the Dark Side

Needed more speed and power, traded the 05 883 custom for a 07 Super Glide. Found that it handles almost as well as my 05, but so much more comfortable and twice the power. The bad thing is my son in Great falls MT traded his sporty in too, and my other son ; returning from Egypt in January is going to buy one too; he also has a sporty. Hope they but a different color.
