I just bought a new Road Glide last Thursday. Had the dealer keep it because I have to store it outside and a winter storm just came through yesterday. Luckily it was all media hype and there is no snow on the ground, with it being in the 50's this weekend I'll pick it up on Satuday and ride all weekend.

You will love your Road Glide! I find I'm much warmer on this thing than when I had a Heritage or a Road King.

First ride in over 2 monts, whatsamatta u? I've ridden in 25 consecutive months here in SE Michigan, tomorrow will make it 26, its a year round state! I've put over 1K miles on it since mid November when I got it.

Interesting you say that. I met a couple down here that traded their RK for an Ultra. Found it to be too hot and went back the the RK. An expensive lesson for sure.

To the OP: Enjoy the upcoming warmer weather on your new wheels!

Well, I guess I might feel differently in the summer, but I like hot weather on a bike, so I'm sure I'll be fine.

In MI no doubt

But don't get me wrong, that's just one couple who said that. Without a doubt the exception to the morn. There are LOTS of fairing bike here.
