    I just went out to have a look at the dealer to see if they had any 2014 street glides in the showroom - they didn't but said they had a few coming in and were due mid to late December. We got chatting and I told him I am thinking about trading in my Dyna for the new SG...... Offered me an amazing trade in and before you know it we were shaking hands on a deal and I put a deposit down. 

    In the past 15 years I've owned a softail and a dyna and now I'm getting onto a touring bike. Think I must be getting old! 

    Now the waiting game.

    Congrats Adam,

     

    I`m totally wrapped with my `14 SG,    went with the vivid black as it was all that was available at the time.

    But i`m really over the moon with it.

    The new fairing works as advertised and greatly reduces buffeting,    i added a slightly taller shield to mine and went with the HD 7" windsplitter.

    I have an 8" and 9" LRS shields heading over here so will try those out and see which works best.

    Cheers Bomberyes

     

    I`m still trying to decide how much to black out on this bike,    i have some black alloy art LED turn signals in coming and also have a Performance machine fast air intake in black and chrome.

    Think i`ll just put it together slowly and see how far to go with the black.

    Hey Bjmcg, you can't go wrong with vivid black, and your bike with the black pipes looks killer. Thanks for posting up those comments on the fairing and the screens - always good to learn from others' experience.

    Cheers and enjoy the ride.

    Will post up my findings on the screens as soon as they land here,    hopefully it`ll help others as well.

    I would be interested in the results of your screen tests as well. I have just traded my 2012 SG on s 2014 FLHTK Ultra Limited and will need to increase the height of the screen.

    Tim SG I might have the perfect screen for you which is a 15" Custom Clarkes windscreen that I have removed from my 2012 SG - you can have it for $50 + postage

    Thanks Graham , but I think the fairing change for 14 model may alter the the screen mounts .

    Bike looks good mate
    I tried a Macko 12" from LRS. went with the way they say to measure it and yep it works pretty good BUT, and there is always a but. It is just TO BIG so I took it off and put it with all the other stuff ups I have made.
