Hi everybody, im starting this threat because im considering to trade my Electra glide classic 2007 for a street glide 2015 or 2016 and i would like to know what you think, is the street glide performance improved or do you think that i should keep the 2007 what are the pros and cons of each model.

This is my Electraglide 2007

Regards.

 

Just of little more information is needed. How many miles do you have on the EG? Did you have any issues with it?

 

I don't have the exact miles but it must be around 46,000 miles, and i don't have any big problems with it basically it's a really good bike but i'm starting to think that the technology it has is outdated so thats why i'm considering the change.

 

You would definitely like the new frame. I had a 2008 SG with roughly 60K, and bought a 2014 SGS new. I like the wider rear tire, and I seem to get more mileage out of the rear then I did over the 08. You will benefit with a larger gas tank, and a boom Radio. The Rushmore bikes are great bikes in my opinion.

 

After finding that Harley doesn't make replacement parts like the cruise control for 88's, I think technology is a very good reason to move on. Some Harley Dealerships aren't even training the mechanics to work on 2006's or older. I think the 2014 is the best year to start because of the advanced technology changes, especially in the electrical system. Around here a 2014-16 SG and Ultra with less than 20,000 miles can be found for around $13,500. But, the occasional $12,000 pops up on Craigs now and then.
