Welcome back!

Glad you decided to jump over here for a bit. Always good to see a "new" FOG join the ranks.

Howdy Grrrrr! What for year is that SG your sittin on? I have a '12.
That is an '08. Had a big bore kit put in in'10. Which gave me starter issues. Was in Dallas this year with it and it started to give me problems again after it was fixed in '10. So I traded it in. Have a 2012 Road Glide Ultra now. It already has the 103 in it.

So, you made the move from batwing to fixed fairing huh...happy with the switch? I cannot get used to the fixed. I ride with a club, and our FL brothers all ride RGs...they swear by em.

All my friends too. Till one of them bought a RG and loved it. Its all i heard about. So went with it. I tell u im impressed. The batwing after awhile will beat u up in a headwind. The shark nose i dont even notice it. I went thru west texas back in april, 40 mph headwind, speed limit out there was 85. I was holding 100. Barely pulling 130 miles on a 6 gallon tamk.

Coming home to WV i was riding thru temps in the low 30s, headwind, tractor trailers, couldnt feel it. Got tired of little cat and mouse game a couple of dump trucks were doing, so i found opening and hit it, looked down was rolling at 100 mph and swear it didnt feel like it. The SG at that speed i could feel it.
