Well i am going to do it. Friday i pick up a 2009 Street Glide. Now don't fret, I am just going to be renting one for 3 days while visiting my folks in Hilton Head, SC. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to ride in 70 degree weather. I will let you know what I think. ;)

Dave,
Going Harley is like going Gay....it's all good until one of your friend's sees you doing it....  . Just kidding my friend... ;)....enjoy the ride, the weather and the family...looking forward to a report on how it compared (good points and bad) to the Nomad. Merry Christmas from the great white Pacific NW.... :)!

I thought you were "born Harley" that you couldn't choose that as an option, or so I have been told.

Don't worry...he'll ride it and realize how good he's got it, but he'll make a few tweaks to the old girl and, like some others around here, call her a Street N'ad or No Glide or whatever name they called it.

The Street Glide is a super nice bike. I think, it just being in the 70s, you'll probably enjoy it a lot. If the temps were up into the 90s though, you'd be ready to park it. Enjoy the ride and the visit with the family.
