Summary:

My FLHX is a true hot rod bagger. I love this bike

General Comments:

Stock low profile seat not too comfortable for a bagger.

With a gel insert, Harley could solve this problem and still maintain the clean low lines.

Harley Davidson, in 2011, now gives a stock upgrade option on touring bike engines. I opted for the upgrade (called the Power Pack option), and received a 103 in. engine, anti-lock brakes and cruise control.

With the 103, I had a screaming eagle performance chip, high flow intake and a Vance and Hines two into one exhaust, installed by the dealer with warranty.

For a touring bike, the Street Glide handles amazingly well, and is fun to ride.

Would you buy another motorcycle from this manufacturer? Yes
