Default Roadglide to Streetglide conversion
Considering this on my 2005 model, feelers to see if there was any interest on swapping parts.

I might be interested. I have a 04 ultra classic and I've been thinking and about swapping it to a roadglide.

Default Ultra to SG
Change rear fender, that's about it and the front tire if you want the full SG effect. One at a local Cramer they set up . actually pretty nice. Look of a SG and comfort of Ultra.

now why anyone would go from RG to SG is a mystery unless you talking g about pre 14 RG.

went from SG to RG and not going back .

How does the the SG differ from the RG as far as air turbulence for the rider.

Yep everyone is happy. Jw it has been a pleasure dealing with you. Your bike turned out great. I've add lower fairings and shorter windshield to mine.
