Default Street Bob

My Denim Black Street Bob came in Tuesday and I am going to pick it up
tomorrow ( Thursday).
My initial thoughts are that it looks better in the picture than in person.
Also they have small diameter mini apes on it which would look better with heavier
bars. This can be corrected for about $400.00 for the new riser and bars.

If anyone is interested I will post more Friday.

Deff the larger apes look better, lowering it a tiny bit too would look sick but I'd be worried about my passenger bottoming out. I also plan on getting WCC Hell Bent pipes but powercoated black to match everythign else

Cool, pics are always great. I'm holding off on buying until spring, but I know I want the Street Bob. I've only seen one, and it ws Vivid Black, I want to see all the colors in person before I decide. Looks like quite a few of us want a riding impression, slothough the AI article really praised the bike!

Congrats on the Street Bob I ordered mine for delivery in the Spring. Only a couple of months left of riding up here in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I first saw the Denin Black on a Harley Demo ride and my impression is that it looks better in person than in the pictures.

Enjoy the bike it's a fantastic ride and I can hardly wait until April.

Howdy Willie, thanks for the pics. I think that sometimes when a magazine does an article on a bike, they have a way with the cameras to make it look better than it does in person. One thing about the mini apes not being the way that you want them, it will be a good place to start with the mods. Hope that you enjoy your new Bobber.

On this bike, I have to disagree. I think it looks even better in person!

I'm glad that you think that it looks better in person, because I liked the pic of it in my AIM, and if it looks better in person, it should really look great.
