OK, first off I have to admit to harboring  a secret love affair with the '04 B/B SEEG :apple:.  I rode one in Milwaukee at the 100th celebration, but I couldn't afford to spring for that expensive of a bike at the time.  Since then I've rented an '06 Ultra and put several hundred miles on her with my wife a couple years back, checking out the fall foliage in Southern Ohio.  Nice bike, handled OK, but it didn't really do anything for me.  I really liked the '06 Street Glide (because it looks so much like a SEEG) but I was waiting for Harley to kick the Twin Cam up to a 95".  So I bought a Buell Ulysses for the summer (cool bike, but not a Harley).  Then the '07's were released and I saw the cobalt blue SG and fell in love.  Two years later and I laid eyes on the B/O RG in Milwaukee - and it stopped me dead in my tracks.  I test rode one at the demo days, and that was all she wrote.  Now I'm anxiously waiting for my dealer to call me back to see if I can get the Dec delivery of the B/O that someone else put a deposit on.  I'd love the creature comforts of a SEUC, but I don't want to show up at bike nite and try to find my bike in a sea of bat wings. 

Not too often does a bike really stir my soul - the SERG does that for me.

Well, that says it all right there.  And if you need to explain, others wouldn't understand.......

If you like high speed ridin', the Tour-Glide is light years ahead of the Ultra, which has a Bat-Wing fairing.  The aerodynamic advantage of a Tour-Glide is phenominal.  While the Tour-Glide may not be as attractive as the old "Bat-Wing", it will flat cut through the wind with more than half the resistance.  There endeth the lesson.  ;) Later--HUBBARD

All good points and  b&b SEEG   is till a eye catcher but the 09 SERG is going to also be a classic
