But I'm kind of leaning towards picking up the basic black R 1200 R pictured above, and then maybe customizing it a bit to make it look more like what I believe a motorcycle should look like. (There are some aftermarket shops in Germany that have wonderful bits you can put on the new BMW's to tone down the current "Mad Max meets The Jetsons" look they all currently seem to have.)
road glide is a pretty cool bike. a friend of mine bought one 2 years ago and loved it. due to business reasons he had to sell it and it sold quickly. My sportster took 2 years of advertising to sell ! anyway, looks like a neat bike to tour on. i sorta like the road king's styling better..seems better proportioned to me and very classy looking in black.
