2006 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Standard Motorcycle reviews

I have the police model, and have added a radio which is what I've never had on a bike before. The ride is very good, and the thing that stands out with this bike is the handling and power combination. I've been riding for over 20 years, and this bike is managable in corners, and will get up and go when needed. Show less

Used to ride crotch rockets some number of years back. I hadn't owned a bike in 13 years and decided to get back on the saddle. I was looking to get back on a superbike, but the Harley's started to become very attractive as I started shopping around. I would see a lot of people doing all the custom jobs to the bikes and I thought to myself, this is the way to go. Never had I been on a Harley in my life, so I was quite nervous upon getting the bike in my possession. Once I pulled away on it, I was in love with riding all over again. This is an awesome bike. Now that I have gotten the most critical (1000 mile) service out of the way, it's time to customize and get all that beautiful chrome, along with some tunes. Bought the sony deck and I am in the process of buying the rest of the tunes. Their system is plug-n-play and a simple way to hook up your own stereo system. Though I love superbikes, I think I found a love more superior. It's called '07 Electra Glide Standard! Show less

After 3 years on a Silverado 1100 and 3 years wishing I had bought the Heritage Softail, I finally succumbed to my real wants and bought the Electra Glide Standard. I could not be more pleased. Ride, comfort, power, the H-D rumble, I should have come to my senses long, long ago. Being that I do not want the radio tunes, I fabricated a black leather covered, hinged cubby door with H-D medallion for the radio opening. The highway pegs I put on make long rides just that more comfortable as well as the detatchable rider back rest for "two-ups". As this bike is quite naked yet full of possibilities, it gives me the opportunity to customize as I go. Extremely proud of this Fire Red Pearl beauty. I would recommend this ride to anyone.

Just picked up my 2006 FLHTI. All I can say is....awesome. Beats the heck out of any softail out there... The ride is so smooth. I have a lot of stuff planned for this bike. Did not want it to look like everyone elses on the road so I bought the Standard and will "make it my own"... Looking forward to many miles on my new bike... Show less
