Default Bought a Road Glide today..

I'm officially on a touring bike as of this afternoon..

She had a whole 2 miles on her before todays test ride....The dealer had already installed all the extras all I need is a solo seat, bigger windshield, and move the controls forward....I'm six foot eight tall so any bike will be small for me, but the RG was the best starting point I feel..

(bad cell phone pic)




I'll be wearing out the search feature trying to figure out what can be done to make this thing as tall dude friendly as possible..

Smart choice, buddy
You're gonna love the touring frame for those long hauls .... i've heard that the footboard extenders can really help
.........and the fixed fairing just cannot be beat
of course, i could be biased
