There is a more simple and less expensive option. Just buy a two up seat for the Street Bob. If you do PM me and I will send you a set of rear brackets and pegs so your wife can ride with you.
I did that for a fellow in England last year that had the money for a seat but not the brackets and pegs which was double what it costs in the US.
The only thing I asked from him is that he send me a picture of him and the wife on the bike smiling. That is all that I would ask of you.
My wife doesn't ride so if I can help someone whose wife wants to ride I want to help.
Remember the Street Bob is a good riding and handling bike. It will do two up with ease.
Should be a seat on Ebay or somewhere. No need to pop retail at the dealer.

Thank you all for your feedback!
I put $3500 down and what got me to go with the Street Bob was that it was a 2014 and I bought it in February 2015. Still it was brand new just not a 2015 and which was higher priced. It's not that I don't like the bike cause when riding alone I still enjoy it but my wife likes to go with me and let's face it, a Street Bob isn't really designed for two people especially being that it comes with a solo seat. I had to buy a seat for us both.

I was in the same boat as you. Bought a new 2014 Breakout last November. By August of this year I determined it wasn't the bike for me. Went to the same dealer told em I just wasn't really that happy with it and wanted a Deluxe. He pulled up what I owed which wasn't to much less than I financed originally and said "we'll pay it off and you can just start fresh". I'll take a deal like that any day of the week

In February of 2015 I purchased my second Harley from the same dealer. The 1st was used but the second was new. My question is, although what I bought is nice, it's not for me and my wife. I wanted a Street Glide but kinda let them talk me into a Street Bob. How soon could I take it back to trade in for the Street Glide which is what I truly always wanted. I've never been late on any payments either.
Only way to find out is go talk to them.
Your not the first rider that bought something other than what they really wanted..
My Son bought a 07 Duece, a 09 NT and then a 10 St-Glide that he still has.
He almost got a ST Gld in 09 when he got the NT.
You can trade bikes every week if you can swing the $$$$
Let us know how it turns out...
