Went by the dealer 2 Saturdays ago to get some supplies to do some maint on the Road King. Ended up making a decent deal on a new 09 Electra Glide Classic with ABS, Cruise, and Security.

It is true what has been said about the new redisigned HD tourers. This thing is light years ahead of the 05's platform. I've managed to get 1600 miles on he so far and am loving it!



Went to Reno with friends to Street Vibrations and added a little personality to her too!

It just gets better with age. I have 10K on the 07 ultra and I love the ride.

Thanks, got almost 4000 on her now, and I am VERY pleased with the new bike. Hats off to HD for a great new platform.

It is amazing how they suck us in with t-shirts and oil filters. At least the Handi-Van gets a new companion.

Nice bike, thinking of moving up from the 2003 Ultra to somthing new, really love the look of the 2009 screamin eagle road glide, but the 30K is a turn off. Enjoy your new ride, love the pinstripe.

The CVO 110 motors have been nothing short of a nightmare; for customers, dealer techs, and the MoCo themselves. I would urge you to do a lot of strong research before purchasing one.

Although I do have to agree about the look of the CVO RG. It's the prettiest thing I've seen come out of the factory in a lot of years.

Yep, one Saturday in March 2007 I took my 2003 BMW K1200GT (the 130 BHP "flying brick" version) into the BMW dealer for an oil change and rode home on a new 2007 K1200GT (the 152 BHP "slant four" version). It was the most expensive oil change I've ever paid for!
