Default Made the leap from Dyna to Touring Bike

Picked up my new SGS yesterday from *** HD of Asheboro, N.C. Could have picked a cooler day, for sure. That was one hot 90-mile ride home. Having ridden a Fat Bob for the last four years - this will take some getting used to.

Congrats!

And it looks like you can practice lane splitting going down the driveway

It won't take 3000 miles to get used to it. I bought a '12 Street Glide after having put 45K on my '07 SuperGlice Custom. In the year of riding from when I purchased the Street Glide, the SuperGlide Custom got 2217 miles while the Street Glide got 11K.

Bought a '15 Ultra Low and took delivery on March 8th and have already put 5900 on her. Very transition. You are going to enjoy!!

I did the same thing - traded in my 13' Fat Bob for a 15' SGS - took all of 100 miles to realize what a good move I made and how well the SGS handles the highways and Canyon roads here in Colorado...
Congrats
