I would suggest and highly recommend, that if you do not Cut your own connection with this site, that the Moderators BAN you from this site all together, for your Chauvinistic.... Rude and very Disrespectful comments towards a "Female" rider and another Harley owner.
Your Out Of Line ....Comments, have no place on a Forum like this or any where else for that matter.
What type of Real Man or Gentlemen, would ever utter such words?
Once again, your own Profile picture of Choice, tells us all, exactly the type of individual that you are.
One thing for sure , I am definitely MORE of Woman.....than you will ever be......a Real Man!
You really need to learn some Respect for others Greg.......especially towards all us Female riders out there.
Hopefully the Moderators will take care of that short coming of yours, for us all.
Your anger towards women in general , is coming out .....Loud and Clear.
You need to be Taught some Manners and Respect for others Greg.
But......I am sure and positive, that you have heard that more than once ,in your Life?
Hopefully the Moderators address your issues, for us.

I have to say.....I am still undecided about the Road Glide.
I actually HATE that "FIXED" Fairing.....BIG TIME!!!
If I was doing it all over again.....I would definitely prefer the "Bat Wing" Fairing over the Road Glides "Fixed" Fairing.
Next thing that I have noticed with the Road Glide is.....that the Fairing does very little , as far as Blocking the wind goes.
On my Fat Boy.....my Sun Glass's would always Stay On....due to having no windshield at all, and the wind would hit me square in the face.....which would pin my glass's to my face, as I rode down the Freeway, at Freeway speeds.
When I picked up my Road Glide......the first thing that happened at Freeway speeds was for my $250 Oakleys....to Fly Off, due the Up Draught caused by that useless low windshield, that did absolutely nothing to block any of the wind.
If anything, the wind is even worse now, on the Road Glide because of the turbulence created by that Fixed Fairing.
I was always under the impression that by having a Touring Bike over a Fat Boy....that most of the wind, would be eliminated?
Not the case at all.
The Road Glide is liking owning a 4x4 over a Sports car.
It sits so Frigging High off the ground, it makes it so Unstable while trying to back it up, or just stopping at a light, is a challenge at times on the uneven pavement.
It could have something to do, with that 5 inch THICK Sofa, that they have on the Stock Road Glides.
The stereo is a nice touch, but....you can not hear it, at freeway speeds as it is, so it is really no big deal at all.
How immature and embarrassing is it, to hear.. some bike at a light, Blaring out some Old 80's tunes for all to hear.....while the rider thinks, that everyone else in the world Loves their choice of Music? lol
I wish that I could actually hear "My" Music, via some Blue Tooth device, as opposed to sharing my style of Music, with the outside world.
I do have to say, that the two bikes are like Night and DAY in Handling, the Road Glide does turn so much better and the ride is so much Softer than my Fat Boy ever was.
I have noticed not that much difference in the Power between the two bikes, which I am disappointed in....even with the 6 speed in my Road Glide, I am not impressed with it's 96 engine over my 88.......Yup.....I was expecting a lot more Power.
It is really nice to have the Locking Bags on it, that is a Huge Bonus.
So.....it is funny to read all the Positive remarks about your Touring Bikes, I find the Road Glide to be very Over Rated, from what I had heard.
All of our Buddies swear by the Road Glide and they ALL Love them?
I just find it hard to figure out....."WHY"?
Different strokes for different folks, but for me.......I know....that the Bat Wing Street Glide, would be a much better bike for me.
I really Hate that "FIXED" Fairing...BIG TIME! lol
May be?......I will get used to it and learn to Love it?
But......we are already talking about selling it come next Spring....and buying a Real Bike.
One with NO Windshield, No useless Sound System, No Sofa to sit on, and No Hard Bags ( These I will miss) but our next bike will have a BIG "Bad ***" 300 on the back of her!
If we are wanting creature Comforts and a Soft Ride, while listening to Barry Manilow and Abba tunes at FULL BLAST lol.......we will drive our Vette or the BMW.
Like Jesse James used to say......He always wanted a Bike, that was soooooo uncomfortable to ride.....that No One Else....would ever want to Ride it! lol
Hand Warmers, Coffee Cup Holders, Stereo's and Windshields belong in Cars.......not on Real Bikes.
Yes......I now have a Tour Bike a "Road Glide" to be specific.......but.....I will be selling it come the Spring.....and looking for some thing else, that looks more like a Bike and performs as one.
May be......I will change my mind between now and then?
You never ever know?
I am sure, that my feelings and remarks would be entirely different, if it was not for that "Fixed" Fairing.
Each to their own....but.....I really Hate that FIXED Fairing! LOL
Now.....tell me ....what the advantages are, of the Road Glide over a Street Glide?
If we wanted another "comfy" Car......we would buy one.
Bikes should look and feel like a Bike......the Tour Models are so far removed from that.....it kind of Turns me Off, for now!
Just my own Opinion.....for what it is worth.

I find it rather entertaining that my comments, would create such a stir! lol
I am just pointing out the facts, about the "ROAD GLIDE" itself.
I am sorry, if my comments go against the Grain or are not in line with some of the "Golly Gee" isn't the Road Glide just SWELL Beav impressions that it leaves a lot of you with!
I am just speaking from my "own" views of the ROAD GLIDE.
Some ....seem to have a problem with that? lol
Some of the Childish comments directed this way, reflect the profile pictures and the words of their own authors.
As they say....a Picture speaks a Thousand words!
In their case....that phrase appears to be, so True.
Once again guys, I am not here to Praise or give False credit to a Bike, that does not deserve it, in my own eyes.
If you happen to Love your Road Glide, that is Great for "YOU".
I on the other hand, have found nothing really worth while, to Love about "My"...... "ROAD GLIDE".
Different strokes for different Folks!
Speaking of that, just because I happen to live in Vancouver, that does not require me, to be a Canuck Fan either!
The Canucks ....SUCK....even MORE.... than my "Road Glide" does! LOL
PS.....if you can not be a Respectful Gentlemen....then at least "try", to be Nice!

May be..... the moderators.....thought that it was a little bit to Sexy or Racy?
But......come on......this is, a Harley site....is it not? lol
I saw in a pic one time of a girl with double D's wearing a t-shirt that said "I wish these were brains"

OMG... I think this whole thread with "Hot Harley Girl" is enough for me to cut my connection to Who is riding..... I've never read a dumber post (look at the rest of her post on the whole site in different rooms, shes a ding bat) Secondly, is "Hot Harley Girl" a self proclaimed nickname or is that what everybody calls you? I was thinking about calling myself Hot Harley Guy, or HandsomeMcHandsome, or maybe Pogi (means handsome in Filipino). I will try not to use "LOL, lol" as many times as you do in my post! You should also be glad that they were only $250.00 Oakleys and not $300.00 Revos. I agree with the other post by Iron Horseman, who goes out and drops that much money on a bike without knowing what your getting into? It's only a good deal if you like it or can sell it for more, and since you don't know anything about it I can only guess you don't know what it's worth! Are you going to be one of those people on e bay that buys a bike and then turns around and uses the same pics of the bike as the orginal seller, and trys to sell it for $4000.00 more then what you paid for it. Only to find that no one is going to buy it for that much! I know you did not get it on e bay... just an example. Anyway, I've noticed in all your comments you use the words "MY" "I" "MINE" etc. then in the same comment "ours" "we", you need to get your story straight! In other post around the board she speaks of lowering it, removing the stripe and so on. Come on guys... wise up to Hot Harley Girl, she's yanking our chain! I'm thinking that Hot Harley Girl is not even a girl at all, it's a dude!
