Beautiful bike. Tastefully done. The windsheild will be your #1 priority for upgrades.

Congrats!!

My preference is John at "Freedom Sheilds". Medium tint probably a 13" or 14". Excellent product and customer service!

Talking of seats I’m assuming the Mustang that I used on my 14 SERK will fit the 18 SERG. Is that a correct assumption?

Finally picked the bike up today. I love it! It rides very well with the 21” front wheel. Front suspension feels much better than my SERK but rear feels the same. The fixed fairing makes it feel very stable at speed and the engine is awesome even though I’m running it in.

I've got a Road King and a Road Glide in the garage.  Older models so not as modern as yours but you'll enjoy the difference.  If I had to choose just one between Electra Glides, Road Kings, other models and a Road Glide the Road Glide would be my ride of choice.  Have fun sir  :2vrolijk_21: .
