OP here with an other update...
It has been a couple of months since my last post and I am having more fun with this bad boy every day. I wanted to put on some serious Interstate cruising time in preparation for an upcoming ride to San Diego. My riding buddies and the local bike club usually just ride the two lane twisties so I haven't spent all that much time out on the freeway.
Logged 400+ miles today in perfect weather - very little wind with the temps climbing up into the low 80's by noon (after departing at 0715 when it was just 45). Cruising at the legal limit of 75 (at a very comfortable 2,800 rpm), on I-8 and I-10 gets me a steady 42 mpg and the Super glide is rock solid and smooth.
I've racked up 3,000+ miles in the last couple of months thanks in no small part to the amazing, warmest on record, winter we have enjoyed here in southern Arizona. Still waaaay too much fun and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
