Default New Street Glide Owner

Hello All,

I traded my FXDL for a FLHX yesterday. I am excited about this new bike! I rode it home from the dealer yesterday and was really digging my new ride. I rode the Low Rider 60 min to the dealer and had a sore back.On the way home, with the SG, no such complaints.However, I did get a littlehead buffeting. Looks like I will beinvesting in a taller windscreen. I bought an SG with ABS and Security. I will be adding cruise real soon!

This post is worthless without pics! I willposting a pic later today, butmy new bike looks just like every otherVivid Black SG,for now.

m.a.c.

You dont need a taller windscreen, get a recurve:

Unless you just like the look of a taller windscreen.

Love mine and I am sure you will love yours. I have put 16,000+ miles on mine and have not been disappointed for a second.

Ride Safe,

Mike

Glad you make right move. I had same problem about head buffing and I solved to my satisfaction by change the windsheild from 4" to 6 1/2" with recurve and add black air baffle that go between forks.
Enjoy your new SG.
