My main concern is wind turbulence. I am 6'1"s tall. Is the Road Glide much better in this regard?
If your main concern is wind turbulance then you don't want a Street Glide

I had to make the same choice. I went with the RG and I don't regret it one bit.
Ride them both and then make up your own mind. They are both great rides. For me the RG had the edge on the SG.

What's your riding style? I rode both and ultimately went with the SG mainly because I felt like I could maneuver it better in tight quarters or slow speeds. The RG felt sluggish to me.
Besides, I really like the look of passing lamps and not the dual headlight look... [8D]
