I rode the Electra Glide this afternoon. It didn't impress.
I'm very pleased with my new purchase.

Congrats on the new bike.

congrats on the new bike; they stopped making standards in 09; they were the SG's before there were SG's

Yep. I have nothing against EG's. They are a very retro-looking motorcycle with classic lines and sex appeal. It just didn't stir my insides like the SG did.
I'm looking forward to learning all I can about the SG and HD while here on HDForums.
Thank you all for your valuable input.

Congrats on the new bike.
Good thing you road tested both;would have sucked to buy something you didnt really care for.
Exact opposite happened to the wife and me.We drove the EGS and the SG;the SG ride wasnt for us.She said it was as bad as our Softail.
Good luck,and be safe.
Mark.
