I just ordered a Roadstar to match my 2008 FLHTCUSE in White Frost/Silver Mist and it should be done the first week of August......

As the leader rounds the first turn...

Turbo +2 has opened up a 2-length lead over Quantum GT and Roadstar has made it out of the gate but looks to be daydreaming...

In the second race, Colormatched is running away with it all...

Soon...I just spent $3,000 with Jenni and didn't even get a kiss   :-*  but it was the first time for me...  :huepfenjump3:

need to replenish and re-evaluate bike budget.

After 13 Votes...the Roadstar has not left the starting line...Turbo+2 leads by a nose through the first furlong...




I personally just prefer the look of the Roadstar Bill.  To my eye the shape goes with our bikes better.  Though with the exception of that one Bushtec model that is obviously Wing-ee they're all good looking trailers behind our bikes.

With both of you riding together, however, I'd still not vote Roadstar for you guys.  It's about 20% smaller volume if I remember correctly.  If you're going to bite the bullet and give Anne some extra space you might as well get all you can.

Don't bet me wrong.  Going from never having pulled a trailer to pulling the Roadstar it seems huge.  I've hauled more crap then I'd ever dreamed I'd take on a bike trip.  But if you two are going on continental trips together there's hardly any justification for not getting the extra space when you do it.

Bill,
Well you know what my vote will be :2vrolijk_21: To color match it does look great, and might save you money, As I was looking at your bike in Sedona thinking dam I like it! Soozie hit me and said after you just had the Buchtec painted! :nixweiss: :nixweiss:

Thanks Mark, Jerry!

Well, i should just remove three choices since Anne has decided that it must be Colormatched!  I tried to explain the versatility of a black one but to no avail...

Same thing happened to me recently. I found a "Rat Bushtec" and wasn't really going to fix it up much, but you know how that goes. Anyhow the wife is extremely happy with it and it tows beautifully. See the thread "Rat Survivor Bushtec".  Doc

Not saying a word about her.  The Road Glide's new seat is in town and she saved me $$$ with that purchase.

I thought so too.  Don't remember for sure how long ago the order was placed.  Am relatively sure I wasn't expecting it yet.  So was pleasantly surprised to find out the parcel was in town this evening.  Will grab it at the UPS depot in the morning.
