^ Ditto. Youll also prolly get a decent deal on a RG now.

I started on a 07 SG and bought a RGC in '12. Ill never go back.

That's not an easy decision. To many factors to consider. Owning a Harley is an emotional thing.

Generally you're either a Road Glide guy or a Street Glide guy. me? Im a Street Glide guy. I can't stand the shark fairing's look...but even rented one once and didn't like riding it.

Find a HD dealer that rents and test both models out. Basically its the only way to determine for yourself regardless of the feedback you get from this forum. I did that in January and rented the RG and the EGC. I was already leaning towards the RG and after riding both bikes it was the RG hands down.

If you have to ask this question, your best bet would be the S/G...
cause you'd know in a New York minute if you wanted the R/G.

Just my biased opinion, yours may be different and that's ok !!!
