Well I for one can tell you this. I have a 2005 Electra Glide Standard I purchased back in 2008 used. It had 21,000 miles on it.
I purchased it after my VTX 1300 got ran over. (I was not on the bike.) I saw the 05 EGS back in 04 on the HD Website. It was chopper blue color and I just fell in love with it.
I had to pass it up because I had already purchased the VTX. Well in 08 after that VTX got crushed, I found my bike. The 05 EGS chopper blue. I still have it, 114,000 miles and going strong.
I had the engine remaned at 95,000 miles, and since then have added a Screaming Eagle 6 speed tranny. She runs great, and just this past weekend I got the Screaming Eagle Street Cannons slip ons installed. WOW she sounds like a new machine.
This bike I my car. I ride it everyday. I will ride this till the wheels fall off, and to this very day even dirty after raining, people still tell me. "What a beautiful bike you have."
It is ENVY for sure. If they can't have one, then they will just bash the crap out of what you have to make themselves feel good about what they have.
