Don't think I've heard any regrets from people buying either one. I went with the RGU but had all the same cencerns. I have never looked back and do not regret my decision. And yes, the radio reach is the only drawback but rarley have to reach up to do any adjustments as most control is acheived from the handlebars. Handling winds is where it shines. Allot of my friends either bought one or it will be their next bike.

Neither. Get a Road King. Fairings are overrated.

Thanks for the info people. I'm leaning to the batwing but I'll see if I can get a demo ride.
