Hi guys, I just wanted to ask the guys that have gone from a Steel Framed bike to a Bagger how they got on? I know the answer is to have a test ride (and I will) but a 20 minute run won't really tell me the whole story. I had a Highball and may get another but I have found a Hardball that looks quite appealing! Anything you prefer or dislike between models? Can you make the Baggers sound as good?
One thing I noticed was my Highball was still a heavy bike and sometimes pushing it around wasn't easy. I used to back it into my garage (so I could ride out) and to turn it around then back it in was tricky. I know the Hard Ball is a lot heavier. Did anyone coming from a Steel Framed bike get a surprise just how much the difference though?
The main reason I am considering the Hard Ball (besides the fact it looks great!) is that the storage might come in handy over the Highball. I have never ridden a Bagger before and will try a Cross Country to see what I think but I would love to hear from some of you who have done this already.
Cheers!
