SG vs. Fatboy Lo...

I just let a 2011 Fatboy Lo for a 13 Street Glide. The lo was my 1st HD. I thought it rode great, until I rode the Street Glide. 1 ride and I was hooked. In my opinion the FBL was like riding in a cavalier, while the Street Glide was like riding in a Cadillac. Don't get me wrong, I liked the FBL, but the DG is better for me. The weight difference was not an issue for me.

Bought my first HD in '07 a FLSTF, traded it in on the '11 Roadking I have. Thr RKC fits my ride needs better, handles and rides better, and I like the look of the RKC.
I made the mistake of not doing comparison test rides, of HD models when I first bought my FLSTF, I think that I would have went Roadking from the start.

By all means, go to your dealer and ride before you buy. However, please keep in mind that the windshield you will be riding behind is absolutely horrible. Not to worry. There are a number of reasonable solutions out there. Just search the subject on the Forum and you'll find a solution.
When I first rode my SG home from the dealer I thought I made a terrible mistake. Two easy accessory fixes and I was out yesterday, 80 mph, listening to the radio... no problem.
And you'll find yourself searching out the "twisties".

Well I have an offer on my FBL already. The Harley gods are pushing me towards the SG quickly . Im trying to schedule a demo for Monday. Hopefully the dealer and the weather allow it.
What size windshield do you guys end up going with? I have heard a lot about the stock being too low, but no real consensus on the better improvement.

The 12 inch stock windshield on my ultra was right at eye-level and i got some buffeting. I bought a 10 recurve from fastaire
(forum sponsor) and it's great. I'm 6.1 with stock seat. Lots of options on windshields from dealer and other forum sponsors besides fastaire.
