Having had both (EG & RG's), I give ya my experience....
The lighting on a RG is MUCH BETTER. The whole "the lights don't turn" thing is TOTAL BS. Both of my RG's light up the road better than either my EG or Heritage.
Handling.... You nailed it! Day & NIGHT! Yes the RG corners better in any/all conditions ~ at least, FOR ME.
btw - Black is good!

Ok now I do have a few questions for all of you Roadie junkies. Does the dual headlight put alot more useable light on the road than a single or a single with passing lamps?? And how well does the RG reall handle in the twisties and the mountains. Is it going to be like night and day???

My RG puts out a lot more light than my '99RK did, but it didn't have the newer style headlights so it's not a very fair comparison.

RE: Test rode an 07 Road Glide
Twisties are "different" with a RG. You almost have to learn to ride a motorcycle again to get on another bike. The bike pretty well drives itself. Why do you think I call mine the Road Couch.
Sounds like you already have yourself talked into it, so congratulations on your new ride.[8D]

I really don't know how anybody could call them UGLY. Unique, different, and maybeodd lookingyes, but UGLY, I think not. Just buy it already, and let the fun begin.
