22 here in Alaska and i finish signing for my FLHTC but i got the detachable tour pack and street glide street and solo seat. It was a lot easier talking the girl into it than I thought and I'm going to start building a around town bike for fun. A lot of the older people in my family have baggers and I'm really excited to take it all over. Seemed like the best all around bike. I do get some weird looks from some people that hear im buying a bagger.

42 with the SG, 41 for my GF. Would have gotten it sooner too and we would never consider an Electra Glide.

I'm 47, got my E-Glide at 45.

However, I still have this bike too


I like them both for different reasons.

I'm 27, and I bought my 09 Street Glide about 2 and a half years ago. People first asked me, is that you dad's bike? Or, Why do you ride a grandpa bike? My answer is always, the only reason that you see older guys on these bikes, is that they are the only ones that can afford them. Nuff said

50, got the RK at age 40 once I dumped the "practice wife"! Boy I missed out on some good years of riding. Many more to come.

Many more bikes? Or many more wives?

Good years of riding...the bike....the wife...?

Oh, and I'm 56, just got the RKC and, as you see above, am clinging to my immaturity.

46 When I started looking for a bike I thought HD was way out of my price range. I scored real good on my 2K RKC and absolutely love it. That may change when I ride my brother-in-laws 2008 CVO RKC next week. Maybe I should play it smart and pass. lol
