I did a reverse last fall myself. Went from a 2014 SG to a low mile 2001 RK. Street Glide is a nice bike, but to me it wasn't "all that". I like the ride on that old RK much better than I ever did the SG.
Even when the SG was in my garage, my old Fat Boy got and continues to get the most miles per year by far.

I'd go Street Glide over any model, other than what I have now. Their profile is the best...to me.

You have a 2017 Heritage and you already want to get rid of it? Is the Street Glide attracting your attention because of the M8? If so, wait in one is two years the M8 will be in all the bikes powered by a big twin.

Heritage....Keep it, Street glides especially black are a dime a dozen. Not that the Heritage isn't! the Heritage is the most flexible bike IMHO, I park my 02 (yep 15yr old bike) next to new Streetglides & the heritage still gets just as many looks, most cant believe its 15 yrs old.

Get a Heritage, put some extras on it & you`re good to go! best all around bike & best looking - But I'm partial if you couldn't tell.

It's a subjective call, but I think the Heritage looks better than a Street Glide. The leather bags, seat and windshield give it a more classic style.

The Heritage is more unique, too. Damn near every other Harley I see in the Chicago and Milwaukee is a black Street Glide.
