I'm thinking about going down the tourer route and was wondering from those that know if there is much difference in the handling of the the two. I was in the snowies on the weekend with a mate who was on a Road King and it seemed to scrape alot.Are the Street Glides the same?

Cheers...

The stock (suspension) Streety would probably scrape sooner than a RK as they are 1" lower.  

Thanks Graz..I really get put off when my bike scrapes and have spent a bit on my WideGlide to stop it.If I go the Streety I guess i will have to do a suspension upgrade and whatever else it takes to sort it out..

Cheers...

I have put the 1" longer shocks on mine and it's prettygood now. Still have a touchdown now and then but thats the joys of a tourer. Its just letting you know your going hard enough.

RoadKing has more ground clearance, and much lighter steering as it does not have the weight of the fairing/sterio/speakers attached to the steering. 

I've had a streety and rode a king for 3 weeks straight... king handled better for mine but in saying that I hear the newer streetys handle real good...

these new 107 M8's handle exceptionally well,
