I hate riding with a bunch a touring bikes, its like sitting at a light and everyone around your is blaring a different Nickleback or Five Flavor Fruit Punch Song at the same time. I like tunes when I ride, but given how good Cardo, Sena, and other brands in helmet audio has become, those bike Stereos are obsolete. I can rip 80mph+, and have a clear conversation across the phone with a open face helmet with my Cardo, talk to my girl on the back, then go back to listening to music or a Podcast without everyone else in the world having to listen as well.
That’s why I have multiple bikes, serve different purposes. My touring bike needs everything, including enough power to pull a sports car red light to red light.
The first FLH That I saw was in the now defunk Hot Bike magazine & was built by Paul Yaffe think it was a road king originally Evo powered that was about 1995 & I loved it ! Anyway about 1998 I bought a 1996 FLH standard & stripped all the crash bars off it laced up a set 18 inch wheels an road it for 15 years before going back to an FXR ! So been there done that Built not Bought !
I originally wanted a street glide, but with everything I wanted to add for 2 up, the ultra made more sense, now I have a quick detach tour pack, so basically its a street glide now, obviously apart from saddle bag height, front lamps etc, and so on, you get the point though.
I’m actually team Road King 👑 As far as gas mileage… My Range says 230+ so I’m not least bit surprised to see one pass 250 miles. I usually look for gas at 40 miles left mark. Maybe I’ll try it out soon!
I bought a 2022 Roadking standard last year. I am super happy with it. I haven't even really watched my gas mileage on it yet. But that is gonna change at the end of May. When we go on a 1500 mile one way road trip. Hell at the moment, the only relevant mileage for me. Is the inspection intervals. My bike has had only the break-in inspection/oil change . And still have 4k miles to go until the next one. But I will have it done early for my road trip. I also own a 2012 FXDF Dyna Fatbob with a Twincam 96. The difference between the Twincam 96 and the M8 107 . Is mind blowing. The power and tork that the M8 has is just amazing! The Twincam is nice, and is a much stronger engine than my old evo I used to have. But they can not hang with the KING! And that baby is stock as a rock. I bet it is an awesome machine in the stage 2 configuration. Hell the stage one will be a neck snapper too for that matter... lol
Traded my S.G. for my R.G. in 2011 when the 103 motor was still optional. haven't looked back since. And 200 miles is a great distance to fuel up and stretch those legs
I’ve got an ultra , I’m kinda old school not a fan of all the electronics but it is the most comfortable bike I’ve ever ridden and handles nice considering it weighs a ton. So the street glide sounds like the perfect set up for shorter trips👍
wife and I ride 2up on long road trips. the ultra was my choice also. lots of room for 2 people, storage is great. wife loves the back rest. she has fallen asleep more than once. I like the stero, cruise control on occasions. 100,000 and still cruising.
Love my street glide. Done some upgrades and still continuing. Also own a road glide CVO. Love it as well. But my street glide will always be my favorite one. Both are fantastic bikes.
I’ve had a dozen bikes. 2 road kings. 2 street glides, Electra glide Std, sportster, Low Rider S, and a street Bob. For one size fits all, I agree that the Street Glide is the golden ticket. My current bike is a 23 ST. But I do still ride my street Bob on my shorter trips because it’s fun for a whole other reason! Lol
absolutely love my 2011 Street Glide,... added a 21" 50 Fat Spoke on the front with a White Wall Shinko Tire,...upgraded the tunes to Kicker with a JVC Head Unit...and love the Merlot Sunglow Color
2008 Fat Bob here. Outfitted with Viking hard bags (will upgrade to removable at some point), HD 19 inch removable fairing, Dyna thick touring seat, and a set of center mount full size mini footboards. Getting about 200 miles on the 4 gallon tank.
The street glides are definitely a beautiful machine...baggers stripped down are giving alot of ppl the option of practical with sleek and sexy estetics. As far as the best motorcycle Harley Davidsone has ever made we all know is the FXRT...of course the bike that changed it all. I'm so happy that the company has chosen to release the newest version of this motorcycle and I'm definitely purchasing one as soon as the funds become available. Thanx for ur videos. Happy riding
So I have a 2014 Firefighter Shrine Streetglide 103 HO . I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT . I PUT Scully air ride on it to drop the rear suspension when backing out ( better foothold ) then raise it on the fly with bar mounted buttons . Sadly on the 3rd of this month ( April 23) I get a young dude on his phone ram me up the ass !!!In a 05 Chevy pickup POS. But Thank God he glanced my left hard bag and ripped my bag bar off( that I had put on ) .Now it's at the dealer waiting for parts and hopefully all is straight with the Alignment. Must be getting old because it's like shit happens and I'm older . In the old days I'd of probably ripped his head off. 😉😎
Went with a CVO street glide in 2015. I won’t ever replace it. It’s mine until I die. Best bike I’ve ever owned. I may pick up another late model vrod for some fun, but nothing will replace my street glide. Mine is not black. It’s a silver flake with black flake flames. I can spot my bike anywhere!
my 2020 flhtp police bike is a hybrid part street glide part limited and the police bikes come with the 114 motor so its really one of the best buys out there as far as fuel mileage my 114 turned into the 128 so my silverado gets better mileage.
The low center of gravity is good for us old guys. I have not rode a street glide. I sat on one at the dealer. I was shocked at how easy it was to get off the kickstand.
Still got my 2014 SGS. Last thing I did was to put steel braided front brake lines on. Kinda for fun, kinda for looks and kinda for performance. But what it did was make it easier to find my Black bike! Easy to spot the brake lines as I'm walking along looking for my bike. As far as gas mileage, I get around 48+ if I stay off the trottle. Get up to the 80's, it drops down to around 42mpg. Running up in the Sierra Nevada passes, it will get 52mpg. Amzaing you go higher in elevation, the milage goes up. Don't know the farest I've ever gotten on a tank. I can tell ya it's farther than I care to ride. Gotta take those breaks. Thanks for a great video.
I just traded my 08 ultra classic for a new street glide special and I love it. I'm turning 60 soon and the weight difference is huge. The 114 m8 engine is also much more powerful than the 103 on my old classic. I ordered a tour pack for my wife when she rides with me. She has a tri glide and usually rides her own though.
I almost bought a street glide but opted for the Road king because I can take the fairing off. After riding a low rider for 40 years didn’t want to get the glide and not like it
Street Glide is nice. Should have bought one 4 years ago when I bought my Heritage Softail. After riding a bagger for 30 years. I was drawn to big engine and minimal equipment.
I own a 2019 Road King and to me that is the true striped down touring bike. With the quick disconnects I can ride around town striped down or I can put on a plastic batwing and a tour pack with some soft lowers and tour the country. The versatility of the Road king is y its my favorite bike. Love ur videos, keep them coming.
I've been the proud owner of a SGS Apex Factory for one year and 10 k miles. The best thing of this bike is, by far, how it handles in twisted roads. The worst: with this price, you should have heated grips, seat, reverse and helmet connection. Thanks for the vid, greetings from Spain 🇪🇸
Batwings are just sexy as hell. I have four Harleys now in the garage and I can assure you that I am able to master the STGS without complaints of fairing issues. Any guy who complains about "wind buffeting" should probably resort to a "dad's bike" and get off the Harleys. My street glide is my number daily ride unless it's snowed the day of here in Seattle. I am a 05'02" female.... 😘
I love all types of motorcycles softtails, bobbers, dual sports, dirtbikes, choppers, baggers, etc... but for practicality (from the point of view of a rider) the streetglide is about the best you can ask for as far as comfort/luggage/radio/wind deflection/ etc but until recently they needed a suspension & power upgrade to reach thier full potential.
I used to strip my 03’ Electra Glide for hanging around home but when I had to hit the road the tour pack was put back on. Loved that bike especially with a 95ci. Now I have the RG ST which is even better. The 117 does not disappoint.
You're exactly right! It's a great all around bike. I had a 95 Electraglide Standard which I traded for a 2012 Ultra Classic. Very different machines as far as weight and ride and handling. The 95 had air suspension in the front and rear where the 2012 only has air shocks in the rear! As far as gas mileage is concerned 200 miles on the Ultra riding easy is very doable but pushing it I get around 185.
Never thought I switch from my Low Rider to a Street Glide. Rented one from an HD dealer in Texas and couldn't believe how much I liked it... so now I've got a new Street Glide... and oh yeah... I kept the Low Rider too! 😊
Everything I want is my 64 duo glide ,no radio ,GPS is a road map . Solo seat and no cell phone .just cruising the highways of america . I have to stop for fuel every 90 miles and pee too
08 Street bought new with 57k on her. Best distance I have ever had was traveling through Nevada on the extraterrestrial highway. Between gas stations, pushed it to 230 miles I was a little nervous low fuel light was on .
@freebehindbars8654 you sound like a typical harley clown 🤡 can you come up with some new material. Those jokes are older than the $hit stain in your uncle-dad's underwear.
Traded my Yamaha venture in for a 2012 street glide , it’s handles way better, lower center of gravity, plus it was tricked out with a removable tour pack , lowers , wind guards on faring, and hearing grips , also stage 1 with Vancin Hinds and opened air cleaner , very much love this bike ! Love your channel keep up the great work
I'm not lying when I say I've done over 300 miles on a tank on my 22 road glide. Stage 1. I coasted every single hill I could going through the mountains in California into Nevada. Sometimes I could coast for miles and miles.
If you really want a stripped down tourer check out the FLHS. I have a 1991 that I bought new. I put a tour pak on it and went to California and back to the east coast. My favorite. I also have a 2009 Ultra. I just don’t use the tour pak unless on a trip. Street Glide- much ado about nothing.
I agree less is more, that’s why I ride a switchback, it’s got the 103 , bags , windscreen, better power to weigh ratio, and it’s always the only one in the parking lot.
I had a 2018 Softail slim. It was okay. Scraped footboards on turns. Too low and expensive for what you get. Traded it in for brand new 2019 Street glide special. Added LED headlight tour pack. Padded seat. Rear foot boards. Pretty much it's like a limited but more specialized. I live in Tennessee and there's lots of amazing rides. It's a great bike.
I always liked the look of the police bike. I liked the street glide because you could build a lot of bike from the factory. I almost pulled the trigger on one until I rode one and was turned off by the fairing wind resistance, Maybe I'm just use to naked bikes.
Best bike ever made.I am going to buy one this year. Used I have a 190 Hp softail heritage classic. But need a Street Glide special. 👍🤟🤙.Greatest video ever .Keep the great work up .BROTHER
I have 2013 Street Glide and I full up around 225 mile. I have Avg mpg at about 49 MPG. Love this Bike. Black and Chrome just like this story. I installed a biketronics Sound system with added lower with 6.5 in them and the 7.1 speaker in the batwing. Steppenwolf never sounded so good.
I've owned 3 Street Glide, and absolutely loved each and every one of em, but the one I have now, 2014 Special, got a good deal on her, only 10k miles, and I'm getting her closer to perfect with every part I add, got the tour pack, saddelmen road sofa, mild cams, full V&H exhaust...she's good for just over 200 miles if I'm easing down the highway...always dig your opinions on HD's bro.👍
I have gotten up to 280 miles before fill up on my cross country rides on my 2009 Road Glide. Now I regularly got over 250 miles before I stop for fuel riding cross country on my 2021 Road Glide. 🎉🎉
I had one and hated it. One thing I didn't consider when buying it was that it is a lowered bike and me being a larger guy, the suspension sucked. Probably should have replaced the suspension like you're supposed to do with every other part on it except the frame. It's all good now though since it got replaced with a DCT Tour. If I had to give up my Wing for another Street Glide, I'd quit riding.
I could get about 3 hours out of a tank of fuel on my first twin cam. My second twin cam gives me two to two and a half hours per tank. I have talked to the local shop and it will be in there when the snow goes.
I bought a New 2016 SGS, I could always range from 225 mpg to 260 mpg, a year after I owned it had the SE Stage V Tire Shredder Kit installed and my mpg feel maybe around 5mpg under normal driving.
I have a 2010 Limited 103' with a S&S 583 cam and tune. Cruising in FL at 75-80 mph I go about 180 miles before stopping for fuel, and I will have a little more than a gallon left in the tank. So I should get around 210-220 miles at that speed. Leaving Key West (the only place you will average 45 mph for over 100 miles) I was pulling 52 mpg.
I took my 03 EG Std and put lower fairings on it lower windscreen etc. Plus paint, and everyone thinks it's a Streetglide !! The Russell Day Long Saddle keeps me from mixing up my ride with all the others
I have a 2010 Ultra Classic. The tour pack comes off, I change the seat and the passenger backrest, boom I have Street Glide. I never understood why the Street Glide is more popular and sometimes was more expensive when you can have two bikes in one with an Ultra Classic.
Never understood the need for tunes, on a motorcycle.
I’ve done across state rides many times.
The motor, the exhaust, noise, is why I love riding.
I hate riding with a bunch a touring bikes, its like sitting at a light and everyone around your is blaring a different Nickleback or Five Flavor Fruit Punch Song at the same time. I like tunes when I ride, but given how good Cardo, Sena, and other brands in helmet audio has become, those bike Stereos are obsolete. I can rip 80mph+, and have a clear conversation across the phone with a open face helmet with my Cardo, talk to my girl on the back, then go back to listening to music or a Podcast without everyone else in the world having to listen as well.
I agree if the exhaust the wind and all the noise from the ride isn't the reason for the ride then you need to reevaluate the reason you ride.
That’s why I have multiple bikes, serve different purposes. My touring bike needs everything, including enough power to pull a sports car red light to red light.
I hear all that and my music
Tune necessary if you change exhaust. My rocker c ran really hot after changing to stage 3. Had to tune.
2016 CVO SG absolutely the best bike I've ever had and I've had quite a few...it make me smile every time I see her...love my bike❤
I had a 01 Electra-Glide Standard and it was great. Now I have a 2010 Street Glide with a quick detach tour pack. Yes great bike for many uses.
The first FLH That I saw was in the now defunk Hot Bike magazine & was built by Paul Yaffe think it was a road king originally Evo powered that was about 1995 & I loved it ! Anyway about 1998 I bought a 1996 FLH standard & stripped all the crash bars off it laced up a set 18 inch wheels an road it for 15 years before going back to an FXR !

I’m actually team Road King 👑

Agreed brother! I got a 2018 Road King Police and that is my daily rider! I love it
Team roadking all the way
I just picked up a 2018 Road King. I bought it because I hate fairings. Been a week so far and I’m really loving this bike.
04 RK Classic two tone blue Stage 1 daily driver open V+H longshots with white walls turns heads always everytime I ride.
I bought a 2022 Roadking standard last year. I am super happy with it. I haven't even really watched my gas mileage on it yet. But that is gonna change at the end of May.

2008 105 anniversary edition ultra classic. Still awesome bike
Road king even better!
Lol 😂
Road glide for life.
Love my street glide. Done some upgrades and still continuing. Also own a road glide CVO. Love it as well. But my street glide will always be my favorite one. Both are fantastic bikes.
No
Enjoyed that, thanks. I'm a softail guy but I'm surprised bagger fans didn't take to the Street Glide right away - Willie G knew what he was doing.
Street Glide Real Glide. Best bike ever made.
I’ve had a dozen bikes. 2 road kings. 2 street glides, Electra glide Std, sportster, Low Rider S, and a street Bob. For one size fits all, I agree that the Street Glide is the golden ticket. My current bike is a 23 ST. But I do still ride my street Bob on my shorter trips because it’s fun for a whole other reason! Lol
My RG turns into a tour bike in like 10 minutes! No tour pack ,just throw on my backrest/ rack , throw some stuff in a duffle bag , wallet and go!
Got the 96ci street glide from 09' & it's still very comfortable.
absolutely love my 2011 Street Glide,... added a 21" 50 Fat Spoke on the front with a White Wall Shinko Tire,...upgraded the tunes to Kicker with a JVC Head Unit...and love the Merlot Sunglow Color

I have the very first street glide. A 1990 FLHS with a bat wing faring.

Went with a CVO street glide in 2015. I won’t ever replace it. It’s mine until I die. Best bike I’ve ever owned. I may pick up another late model vrod for some fun, but nothing will replace my street glide.
Mine is not black. It’s a silver flake with black flake flames. I can spot my bike anywhere!
2014 SGS. Love it.
Road King has everything you need, & nothing you don't
I have a naked 1994 Evo Electra-Glide Classic,
my 2020 flhtp police bike is a hybrid part street glide part limited and the police bikes
come with the 114 motor so its really one of the best buys out there as far as fuel
mileage my 114 turned into the 128 so my silverado gets better mileage.
The low center of gravity is good for us old guys. I have not rode a street glide. I sat on one at the dealer. I was shocked at how easy it was to get off the kickstand.
Still got my 2014 SGS. Last thing I did was to put steel braided front brake lines on. Kinda for fun, kinda for looks and kinda for performance.

I had a 2000 Electraglide Standard. Kinda was the same with no stereo or engine paint.
My first Harley was a stripped down FLHTC, 1986 Liberty Centennial that was basically a Street Glide - loved that bike!
I have a 94 FLHTC. Never heard of a Liberty Centennial
I just traded my 08 ultra classic for a new street glide special and I love it. I'm turning 60 soon and the weight difference is huge.

Had a electra glide special. I have a Street glide special. more power, better handling, lighter, love it, never going back

Bought mine brand new in 2018 and love it.
Love the Street Glide. Mine is a 2012 CVO. Still have my first Harley 1988 Heritage Softail.
Great video Gixx, see you next Friday!
Dont forget the Electra Glide Standard in 2000
Mine has 110,000+ miles on her
To start out, I enjoy your videos. The street glide does make a lot of sense but I’ll stick with my 06 road king 😊
Street Glide is Hands down the #1 Harley Davidson Bike made. Love my 19 SGS. With the 114 CI.
I have a 2006 street glide with the 88” motor. Plenty of upgrades done and love it; will never get rid of it.
Batwings are just sexy as hell. I have four Harleys now in the garage and I can assure you that I am able to master the STGS without complaints of fairing issues. Any guy who complains about "wind buffeting" should probably resort to a "dad's bike" and get off the Harleys. My street glide is my number daily ride unless it's snowed the day of here in Seattle. I am a 05'02" female.... 😘
Cool video.
I love my 2015 Street.
Especially after doing the Tire shredder kit, it runs great.
I love mine I got a 2010 with a 96ci cammed and I’m more than happy with it.
I love all types of motorcycles softtails, bobbers, dual sports, dirtbikes, choppers, baggers, etc... but for practicality (from the point of view of a rider) the streetglide is about the best you can ask for as far as comfort/luggage/radio/wind deflection/ etc but until recently they needed a suspension & power upgrade to reach thier full potential.

Between gas stations, pushed it to 230 miles
I was a little nervous low fuel light was on .
Street glide number 1. Let the arguing begin 😂😂😂
There is no arguing if you like old antiquated bike.
No argument from me.
@@staggdegraaff1531I know plenty that will drag anything in your driveway, bc I doubt you own a garage with your jealousy.
@freebehindbars8654 you sound like a typical harley clown 🤡 can you come up with some new material. Those jokes are older than the $hit stain in your uncle-dad's underwear.
Never be as good as the ultra
Aka the Grandpa-mobile
gran pa's rule, we have all the money 💰 😮
My 2008 Fat Bob is now a mini Street Glide , got the fairing , bags , less weight and better brakes than a standard Dyna .
Not to poo poo you. But its a Softail frame, not a touring frame. Like comparing apples with steak.
Traded my Yamaha venture in for a 2012 street glide , it’s handles way better, lower center of gravity, plus it was tricked out with a removable tour pack , lowers , wind guards on faring, and hearing grips , also stage 1 with Vancin Hinds and opened air cleaner , very much love this bike ! Love your channel keep up the great work

Street Glide- much ado about nothing.
I have the 12 Electra glide and it just converts into street glide in five minutes absolutely love it.
Woo hooo! It’s Gixxerfoo!
I have a 2011 ultra limited with single driver I get 44 miles to the gallon To get that you have to use cruise control
I ride a 2016 Street Glide. Get about 230ish on a tank if just cruising. Love the bike. No regrets! The 103 is a great engine!
FLHTCUSE6 for me. I also like the quick de-tach tour pack for an SG look. Love the batwing fairing.
I agree less is more, that’s why I ride a switchback, it’s got the 103 , bags , windscreen, better power to weigh ratio, and it’s always the only one in the parking lot.
1st bike I had with a radio didn't think I'd like it but I love it
The full fixed touring bagger type never was my preference.
I had a 2018 Softail slim. It was okay. Scraped footboards on turns. Too low and expensive for what you get. Traded it in for brand new 2019 Street glide special. Added LED headlight tour pack. Padded seat. Rear foot boards. Pretty much it's like a limited but more specialized. I live in Tennessee and there's lots of amazing rides. It's a great bike.
I always liked the look of the police bike. I liked the street glide because you could build a lot of bike from the factory. I almost pulled the trigger on one until I rode one and was turned off by the fairing wind resistance, Maybe I'm just use to naked bikes.
Love my Street Glide 2020 Midnight Blue with the 107 she loves 70 down the highway around 225 I get gas with it saying around 30 miles left
Great work GixxerFoo ♥️
Happy Easter
Living The F🤪KING Dream ❗
Safe travels 🙏♥️🐾🐾🇦🇺
Best bike ever made.I am going to buy one this year. Used I have a 190 Hp softail heritage classic. But need a Street Glide special. 👍🤟🤙.Greatest video ever .Keep the great work up .BROTHER
I have 2013 Street Glide and I full up around 225 mile. I have Avg mpg at about 49 MPG. Love this Bike. Black and Chrome just like this story.
I installed a biketronics Sound system with added lower with 6.5 in them and the 7.1 speaker in the batwing. Steppenwolf never sounded so good.
I love the street glide. But I wouldn't trade my roadking for 1. As for fuel milage. I get just over 200 miles to a tank.
Love my street guide never had a problem can't fill the wind either..
Love my 14 SG! Bout to hook her up!
Luv this channel!!! JT
Good content..13flhx 103 w/222 cam gets 200miles easy..Carry on
Yup, I like my Street Glide camouflage edition.......its black and blends in with everybody else's. HAHAHAHA!
We got a 2012 we love it..20 yrs on my soft tail wore us out! we done got old i think..45 Galveston Texas
I've owned 3 Street Glide, and absolutely loved each and every one of em, but the one I have now, 2014 Special, got a good deal on her, only 10k miles, and I'm getting her closer to perfect with every part I add, got the tour pack, saddelmen road sofa, mild cams, full V&H exhaust...she's good for just over 200 miles if I'm easing down the highway...always dig your opinions on HD's bro.👍
Don't like the lower rear shocks--limit lean angle for slow speed maneuvers--and ride hard. Guess I will always be a Road King'er!
Love my Street Glide!
I have gotten up to 280 miles before fill up on my cross country rides on my 2009 Road Glide. Now I regularly got over 250 miles before I stop for fuel riding cross country on my 2021 Road Glide. 🎉🎉
I had one and hated it. One thing I didn't consider when buying it was that it is a lowered bike and me being a larger guy, the suspension sucked. Probably should have replaced the suspension like you're supposed to do with every other part on it except the frame. It's all good now though since it got replaced with a DCT Tour. If I had to give up my Wing for another Street Glide, I'd quit riding.
Good show 😊
I like the Street Glide but I would prefer a Limited if I were in the market for a new bike.
I love the streetglide . I have a 06 electraglide classic stripped down and im happy happy 🎉
Road Glide. 🎉 Star Racing 30/30 cam, Tab header, Tab 4.5 zombies, fuel pak 3. At 250 miles the gas light comes on. Paper and pencil mpg ranges 42-46.
My clubstyle 09 fxd stage1 96" get 220miles to the tank...personally I'm a shark-nose fairing type of bagger guy🤘
I could get about 3 hours out of a tank of fuel on my first twin cam. My second twin cam gives me two to two and a half hours per tank. I have talked to the local shop and it will be in there when the snow goes.
I got 250 miles on my 05 ultra with a 95. it's now a 103, 170 miles. I'm looking for gas
I bought a New 2016 SGS, I could always range from 225 mpg to 260 mpg, a year after I owned it had the SE Stage V Tire Shredder Kit installed and my mpg feel maybe around 5mpg under normal driving.
I have a 2010 Limited 103' with a S&S 583 cam and tune. Cruising in FL at 75-80 mph I go about 180 miles before stopping for fuel, and I will have a little more than a gallon left in the tank. So I should get around 210-220 miles at that speed. Leaving Key West (the only place you will average 45 mph for over 100 miles) I was pulling 52 mpg.
I’m a 2019 Electra glide standard 107 with stage 2 and putting on it what I want ! 🤙🏻
Love my 2018 StreetGlide Anniversery in Legend Blue and Vivid Black. It's Chromey Homie.
Had an 08 EG, traded it for a 19 SG. Best choice I made
Exponentially more power than the 96 and you got one before all the tech took over the bikes!
Yep the neighbor has one. He's pretty happy with it.
I took my 03 EG Std and put lower fairings on it lower windscreen etc. Plus paint, and everyone thinks it's a Streetglide !! The Russell Day Long Saddle keeps me from mixing up my ride with all the others
I have a 2007 street glide and I’ll never let her go!! The only thing I’d change is the bigger newer style fuel tank!! Other then that she’s perfect
19 Street Glide, love it.
I have a 2010 Ultra Classic. The tour pack comes off, I change the seat and the passenger backrest, boom I have Street Glide. I never understood why the Street Glide is more popular and sometimes was more expensive when you can have two bikes in one with an Ultra Classic.
