Don't know what area you are in but if one is near you I would highly recommend attending the Demo Rides. There is usually a good selection of bikes, 18- 20, and you can ride as many as you want. If none in your area, your local dealers will let you demo bikes you are interested in providing you have your M endorsement.

I am 34 and have an Ultra because of the need for long-distance comfort and amenities, but with the E-Glide Classic you aren't giving up much as far as creature comforts but have a much easier time removing the tour-pak with only an antenna to disconnect. As for weight it really does get to be a non-issue pretty quickly. I went from dirt bikes and a Sportster to the Ultra and never looked back. Also, I recommend the "Ride Like A Pro" DVDs as they will make slow speed maneuvers a breeze.

As far as Road Glide vs. E-Glide it is a matter of what you are most comfortable on. The first ride on a Roady was strange with the fixed fairing and all but I have ridden several since and really like them. When it comes time to replace The Ultra the Fugly will definitely be in the running.
