I need your advice.....from France!!!!!
« on: October 04, 2010, 02:55:09 PM »

I bought in May 2010 a Street Glide CVO ......
I wanted an Ultra Classic Electra, but HD did not honor my order.
I have the opportunity to share my Street in 2010 with an Electra CVO 2009 .....
I think it's a good deal.
What do you think about?
Thank you for your help!
Merci les amis!!!!

If it were me, I'd keep the Street Glide and buy a color matched tour pak and lowers and call it a day.  The 10 SG Capn Morgan you have is a sweet machine.  I know, I have the same ride. :)

I agree, if you are happy with the bike other than the lowers and tour pack, keep it and buy the parts.

Tourpak + lowers + passing lamps + heated handgrips.
It is just my opinion.

Hi Robin,

if your FLHXSE runs ok and gives you no trouble keep it and buy those additional parts.

Many FLHTCUSE owner spend a lot of money to make theit bikes "convertible" to Streetglide-looks.

And you never know what bugs you may buy with a 09, they are not all flawless  ;)

Captain Morgan is my favorite so i would advise the same as others.Get all the extras detachable then you can switch between the looks. :drink:

By far more money spent going from classic to glide than glide to classic........consider yourself lucky. Tour Pak and you're done, lowers are a waste unless you ride in Siberia.

it's normal with those mufflers - the OEM chrome shields should be reinstalled, they cover it up.
