I just bought my 2011 Street Glide in July. I sold my 2006 CVO Ultra Classic. I really didn't like the way the Ultra handled. I had a high flow intake, race tuner and slip-ons on the 2006. I must say with just some slip-ons on the Street Glide it seems to have more torque, and of course it is about 70lbs lighter than the ultra. So far I am really impressed with the ride and power. I just wonder if replacing the head pipes and air cleaner will improve the power and torque on the 2011. I would hate to lose the mid range torque by replacing the exhaust.

Got my Street Glide a couple weeks ago. Its been rainy here for the last week. Got to take my first good ride yesterday. All I can say is WOW! I really thought my Softail was great. This bike is even better. The highway was a dream as were the back roads. This bike handles so well that it really doesn't feel like I am riding a bigger bike. Never really wanted a radio but I truly love having one now. Cant wait to take some road trips.
