The hubby has an '08 EG standard - no tour pack. He thinks my SG handles better in the twisties and he'll lay it over futher than his bike. He got his in '07, and had 30+k miles on it before I got my SG last year.

Take that for what it's worth - I've never ridden his EG, so have no opinion of my own.

 

I like the tour pak so much I've had one on my last coupla bikes. Never take it off even though one was quick detachable.

 

I was really surprised how much differently my Ultra Classic handled and rode after taking the tour pak off. I don’t remember how much my tour pak weighed but it was very noticeable when climbing on and bringing the scoot upright into the riding position.

 

Woops! did a double post.

 

Great feedback! Whatever I decide, it needs to be the right choice. When you're talking about a $20,000 + purchase, you don't want to screw it up. This will be my last bike for awhile..

Honestly, if I had the garage space, I would consider keeping my Dyna and add a used bagger. My Super Glide is a great around town bike, but after riding to Daytona (again), I feel it's time to get more comfort.

My heart likes the SG. My brain likes the EGC.

 

garages are for bikes, put the cars in the driveway !

Multi bikes is nice.

just went through the exact same decision, have had the streetglide for one week. first thing i noticed, the wife made the bike bottom out on bad road conditons. next she wanted new floorboards instead of the pegs. then she needed a taller windshield as the wind mused her hairdew. should of got the EG. fistbump.

 

if I was to do it over, I'd go with the eg,I'm battling the wind buffeting on my sg, plus the shocks and the seat, I prefer to ride my streetbob

 

The decisions we make create the life we lead. I prefer thin, curvy, and beautiful women. Some prefer thicker, curvier, plainer ones. That's why they make both.
