Similar story here. Rode dirt bikes & sport bikes all my life. Rode my dad's Electraglide & my brother in law's Ultra a few times, but never owned a Harley. Now at 34 years old I sold my 2005 GSXR-1000 and bought a 2005 Super Glide Custom. Soooo much more comfy than a sport bike. Looking forward to many miles in the wind!

I just made the switch from a 954 to a softail and I couldn't be happier, that is at least until I can afford to have both in the garage.
