Kinda going for the Street Glide or more for it's age, Electra Glide Standard look. I think the EGS became the Street Glide, right? I also took the Tour Pack off last year for a few months and it looked great, definitely changed the feel of the bike, the overall balance. But, like you said Tracy, you never know when you want to haul a bunch of stuff and it surely comes in handy for that.
I thought about getting a detachable kit for mine but didn't want to spend the money it would have taken to do it. It was mostly for ease of getting on the bike anyway. With my bum knee it's difficult for me to bend my leg far enough to swing it over, I have to step over the bike to get on.

They made it real easy to remove on the Rushmores. They sell the quick docking kit for $600, but it isn't needed. Wiring is all quick connect.

So glad I am not the only one in that boat(s), though my problem is slightly limited mobility due to nerve damage in my back. I don't let it stop me, but have to be deliberate about some motions. I like the backrest I put on mine, but that's another obstacle to avoid when mounting.

Liit. Is road base cheap there? Grade the road. Rent a roller. Compact the **** out of the base. Almost as good as asfault.
