Default Bought a new 2020 Road Glide Special!

I'm pretty excited, I picked up my new 2020 Road Glide Special today! Storms were coming and I had to work so only got about 50 miles on her so far. Man, what a difference from my 18 Street Glide! The bike feels bigger, yet more open and the wind protection at highway speeds is much better. The bike seems to handle a little better and leans over easier too. The new nav systems is such a huge improvement. I was lucky enough to find a Zephyr Blue/Black sunglow at my local deal. They got it Friday morning, I bought it Saturday afternoon, and I even negotiated under MSRP too. This bike is gorgeous! I'll post some pictures very soon.

congrats. have been riding roadglides for almost 10 years. while I may get a second bike, my primary will always be a rg.

have heard that with the 2020s you now only get one key fob, 2 sets of keys. did you get one fob or two?

Congrats! Did you trade? Did you keep your mufflers and other mods?

Yah, pretty sad, but the 1- keyfob per bike for 2020 is true. When they were delivering it I asked where my 2nd fob was and thats when they told me they only come with 1 now.

Congrats....I have a street glide and a road glide and really feel the handling issue is overrated. I really don't feel a huge difference on the highway. I prefer the RG at parking lot speeds as I can get to full lock with less weight on the front end. Just me though.
