Good morning, Greetings from NH. My wife surprised me at Christmas with the down for a new bike. I used to ride when we first met years ago but had to sell my last bike which was a Suzuki C50T due to life. We are now in a position to get a new ride and we have narrowed it down to the new 2024 Road Glide and 2024 Street Glide, both would need the long-haul pack or sissy bar for her. We are waiting for all the snow to melt before going and doing a demo rides. For those of you who have the new Road Glide or Street Glide, how are they with riding 2 up? We are planning day rides and overnight rides. We are minutes from Weirs Beach that hosts Laconia Bike week here in NH. This will be our first Harley Davidson purchase. Any other information on the would be great. I can't wait to hit the road again.

Mike

Welcome from Spartan Country, Michigan!
I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Take to an office supply store and have them put a spiral binder in place of the glued binder. That will let the manuals lay flat on your bench. Get a three ring binder and record all your maintenance, repairs, accessories, etc. This will be a great reminder of what was done when. And great material to pass along to the new owner should you sell and upgrade. Also know how large your fuel tank is, a rough idea of your range per tank, and record your fuel usage. I have an app called Simply Auto that I record all my fuel used. I use the odometer and use the fuel gage as reference only. I reset the odometer to zero on fill ups, and I know I can safely get 200 miles on a tank on around town riding, and upwards of 230+ on trips.

 

Welcome Mike .

Hope you continue to enjoy your ride here with us on the HDFORUM.

Only as a suggestion, but very important, create a signature line similar to mine on your bike with the year, model, and all the letters Harley assigned to the bike. It will appear at the bottom of your post when you choose.

You can also add a favorite picture to the signature line.

Doing this will be helpful if you ask a question or to someone asking a question. All Harleys aren't the same with many changes and variations over the years.

You can also add a favorite picture for an Aviator postage stamp you see at the top left of your post.

PS...being the welcome area, post your question using the drop down menu.

I will post were I think best but only as a suggestion.
