I might just be in love!

[Gamecock]

Browsing the Harley site this weekend, and dang, I might be in love! I loved my Venture, but have always loved a H-D Road Glide....now with the backseat and trunk, I may be sold. Oh yeah, the ABS helps too.

 

What do ya'll think of this bike?

NICE!! But its a HARDLEY!! I ain't going back......I ain't going back......I ain't going back..... That thing sure is Purty.....

[Guest scarylarry]

Might look at one when they come out but one poster said it is hardley, and that alone drives me away with the maint. cost that and I been on 3 long rides with a HD and they all 3 broke down different rides and one just left the shop....

2 things on this is one from the picture looks like the bars are forward to much, wouldn't really know till I sat on one, the other is slash cut pipes, now that would have set it off..

I know alot of people are drooling over it though, one even wants to trade her hubby in as a slave for one...

Yea, I like it too. Especially the CVO version for 36k. Not a HD guy myself but I just like the looks of the Road Glide.

That works out to 2 ventures, right?

That extra 7 cubic inches ain't worth the $12K to me, I'll take the 103! But the CVO sure is nice!

[Riderduke]

yup that is the only harley that Catches my eye. Nice looking bike.

[CaptainJoe]

Looks an awful lot like a small Venture....

 

Just kidding...

 

Whatever floats your boat my friend. The important thing is JUST RIDE!

I've been lusting after this bike as well. The price is a bit steep but I like it.

My wife is the one egging my on to buy one and I am the one not wanting to purchase. Something there just ain't right...

[Squidley]

I agree with you Ben, the Road Glide is my favorite new style Harley. I love the front fairing, for most it's a Love/Hate with how it looks but I think it's sweet! Get what you want and enjoy it, thats why there are hundreds of different models and brands...choices are good

[Motorcycle Mike]

Yawn.

Just another Harley. I see a hundred of them every day.

Sorry, I guess I just dont see what others see.

[saltcreep]

To me it looks like something only a mother could love, reminds me of a pug or one of those small breeds with their nose chopped off.

[ediddy]

The road glide is probably the most under rated harley. It is a good looking bike and people I know that ride harleys say it is the most smooth ride. If I was thinking about getting one I would want to ride one with my wife on the back. Harley has that rear cylinder leaned out so much the heat could be a problem for the passenger but you could always have the fi re mapped to make the rear cylinder more rich.

[ArcsSparks]

Can't see owning a road glide when you make a turn and your headlight takes off in another direction (frame mounted fairings are not for me) plus same Harley problem 2 prices for one motorcycle. I don't know the HP rating of the RG but I bet my RSTD is as much or more

I've always like the looks of the Road Glide and the upgrade to full touring looks great, except, those spoked wheels.

[Oldslow]

Was looking at the 2011 models at the Milwaukee museum.

My wife wants me to have one but I don't know if it's in the budget!

Like someone said...2 RSV's! Hard pill to swallow.

Beautiful machine. I'd like to see a batwing fairing with a frame mount...

[FreezyRider]

My opinion....

 

1. Overpriced

2. Underpowered

3. Pretty bike

 

So, if #3 outweighs the other two, then ride it. For me, it is a no-go.

I agree. They are great handling and it is hard to beat their quality but I think they are but ugly. JMO
