Default 2009 Road Glide vs 2008 and older???

Hey guys....thinking about making the move to road glide and was wondering your opinons about the 09 models vs. older models. Trying to determine if the 09's are worth the price or will i get the same out of an 08 or even 07. I was hoping to get some opinions (other than how ugly they are) Thanks in advance for your time guys.

Fair enough...and to be honest with you..your bike is the reason i want to make the move. I really like the way your bike looks.

Go test drive one now and thank me later. I upgraded from an 03 883 Sportster to the 09 RG. I wanted a Dyna, but the Dealer told me that I would soon be back looking at the RG. After a test drive of the Dyna and RG, I had to admit that the Dealer was right. The RG looks big but is well balanced and a pleasure to drive at freeway speeds (or above :] ) and has plenty of room for a hot chick on the back.

Rarely does anyone ever go backwards once they buy, own and ride a Roadie. Get the 09 or if you like a Touring model, wait for 2010 (few weeks) and wait for the new Tour Glide. The changes between 09 and older are worth the extra coin. Pony up and do yourself a favor.
