Default No more Road Glide

Looks like I'm gunna have to change my screen name and sig pic.
Bought a 2011 FLHTK Electra Glide Limited!

This is a lot more comfortable ride than the old Road Glide.Handles pretty nice and I like the larger rear tire and the tour pac.
There sure is a difference between the fairings.There is less wind noise with the batwing.No problem getting use to the fairing difference(fixed vs.turning).

I have about 500miles on it now.Have to figure out what to do as far as a stage 1.Dont want to get to carried away.You guys were right about these things running hot!

Oh,its the Root Beer model.Will have to post some pics.

Congratulations! Sounds like a great motorcycle.

Hollister, how's the weather this time of the year? A couple of us are riding in California starting next week and will probably zig zag through or near Hollister.

Congratulations, big difference between the old and new frames isn't there....

Hollister this time of the year should be nice (to answer the other guys question). So. and central California have been real hot (105+) this week but should be cooling down starting today. You could see some rain since it is almost October but it doesn't normally start for another month or so. Have a good ride.

Here's why it's HOT. It has a Catalitic Converter in the Head Pipe. Just change out the header and a SEST wouldn't hurt either.
