Road Glide-Street Glide Difference
I wrecked my '14 Limited, so I'm going to drive to Rogers, Arkansas. rent a bike at the H-D dealership and ride the roads around the Ozarks for 4 or 5 days. The only bikes available are Road Kings and Road Glides, neither one have I ever ridden before.
If I had to choose, it would be the Road Glide since it has tunes and navigation. The only problem I can see is, of course, it's a fixed fairing. Does it take some getting used to coming from a batwing or is it no big deal?

That's a true story. Lol. Took me 5 minutes into the test ride of an 11 RGU to know I was hooked. Traded the 08 SG in and 11 months after buying the 11 I bought my 16 RGS. Never going back.

I've had several bat'wings and a few fixed fairing bikes. I can say i don't think I will buy another Bat wing bike. As for the headlights? Your car's headlights don't turn with the front end either. IMO the storage is better, Radio is farther away giving more room, controls are on bars so radio distance is not an issue for me. Better on highway. Look mean from front view. Love my Shark. Good luck
