Fatboy or streetglide
#44
I posted this in the Softail forum but I'd like to get opinions from bagger riders as well. Before I do my winter mods which include detachable backrest, bags, and new bars, I'm seriousely considering just selling it and getting a Streetglide. I'd love to get my hands on a SG and start building my vision of it. 103", 21/18 contrast cut wheels, blacked out everything, stretched bags, smooth rear fender, killer stereo, etc.... My dilemma is that I have alot of $$ invested in my Fatboy. Much more than the pics would lead you to believe, and even more time. At one time or another, I've had every part off the bike except the engine and trans and no one has ever turned a wrench on it except me so I'm a little sentimental about it. I'd like to keep both but I can't at this time. HELP!
So my advice to you is to keep the Fatboy and buy a SG as a second bike. Hey - if you can swing it right now is a bad time to sell but a great time to buy.
Good luck.

I put almost as much into my 2006 Heritage (motor/paint, 6-speed, etc. see in my photo gallery) and still traded for 2009 Street Glide. Haven't looked back once but I ride the highways alot. If I could have afforded both, the Heritage would have sit in the garage as I prefer to ride my Street Glide to work when I can. Stops better, handles better at low speeds, smoother, etc....
Just depends on what is more important to you. I actually wrote out the pros and cons of each to help me decide. For what I want out of a bike, the touring bikes are my favorite right now.

From another who went from a FatBoy to an SG there is no turning back. If keeping both is an option, then do it. If not, you won't regret it.
