Test riding a streetglide Dec 19

all the touring series are the same except for plastic, speakers, wheels and badges/trim
most models have 13" rear shocks, the X have 12" ( the FLHX streetglide for one).
so a little harsher ride & a deflector rather than a windscreen.
I would suggest if you can find the Harley Demo truck where you can ride 5 or 8 models in a day...many questions are answered on a test ride

Buy whichever makes you happy.
If you test a streetglide and a roadglide, you'll buy the street. Most people do.
As far as the victory lineup, I was looking at the Hammer before I bought my Softail back when, but ended up not getting a victory because of aftermarket support (lack there of). I believe that has changed recently.

Good point, "Buy what makes you happy". If you don't like the looks of the RG, that's enough reason not to buy it, never mind test ride it. You don't want to be riding what you think is an ugly bike, for sure. I'm not so sure that most people who ride both a RG and a SG will pick the SG though. Especially the Rushmore models. There is quite a difference in handling at parking lot speeds and at highway speeds. There are more people who are in your boat, they just like looks of the SG better, and that's fine. Both are nice bikes & both are better than any Victory, haha.

I think a test ride that impresses you can change your mind about the ugliness of the RG. I've not test ridden a RG but want to, and while I think the SG is better looking I would get a RG if it really rode that much better.
