get yo self a fairing its like 2G's and your have a bike just the way you want it

 

I agree with mrbuck. An aftermarket fairing would be a good way for you to keep that sweet ride, still have the tunes and wind protection and have a ton of versitility.

As far as the RG vs. SG, I have an 08 RG now and due to the buffeting and other wind issues, I have it traded for an 09 SG. Just my $.02 though.

 

Go rent both of them and get which one you like the best. Hell, you might even wanna keep the RK after riding them for some miles.

 

Dude, you got a bad *** RK. Do what the majority is recommending, get a detachable fairing, and they are a few that you could hook up a radio and speakers to it.

 

Dude, If you get rid of that king you'll wish you hadn't. I don't know what you're looking to get for it but I'd be surprised if you got $18K in today's market. If you bought that thing new I'm guess you have twice that in it. Detachable fairing is the way to go. You obviously don't mind spending money on your bike so go get a nice one with all the bells and whistles. Hopefully you can still match the paint.

 

I have an 06 street glide and have ridden a road glide, I prefer the SG way over the road glide, The RG feels more bulky, and the fact that fairing doesn't turn doesn's is just kinda of odd, and takes some getting used to. But thats just my opinion.

 

I had a RG as a loaner and I had 3 people tell me it was ugly.

The wind and buffeting was horrible on it too. Good luck with whatever you decide.

 

Why not just put a fairing with stereo on yours? That is a beautiful bike!

 

I have an 07 SG and wouldn't trade it for another bike, the look is cool/slick and the ride is sweet. I have also driven an 06 RG through some crazy weather in the Canadian Rockies, 5 days/1800K and the ride was better than my SG. I LOVED that bike but I couldn't quite get my head around the look - just a personal thing. The fixed fairing is tough to beat in terms of tracking and aerodynamics - it is a fantastic ride. I have driven every bike in the HD lineup and the RG is the best ride of them all. If you like the look of the RG then this is the bike for you. If you are looking for a great ride and, in my opinion, a cooler/classier look then the SG is the bike for you. Good luck, you can't go wrong with either one.

 

blondes, brunettes, redheads......same as with a new scoot,
until you've taken each for a ride its hard to say which is
the right model for you.

Personally, I have chosen the blonde and a R/G.......
