I traded my street bob in for a 2014 Heritage. It's sure is a lot smoother ride, but it's gonna take a little getting used to. Can't lean as much into turns, have to down shift sometimes to really get into the throttle...but overall, I love this bike.

I now have a place to put stuff and I can ditch my backpack. Aaannd, my daughter has been dying to ride with me. It might still be a bit before that though.

The bad part is, I have to start over on mods, but that's part of the fun isn't it?

Wow, did I really just make a post about getting a new motorcycle and not post a pic? What was I thinking. Please excuse my messy garage.


Morocco Gold, bone stock now (except for my garage door opener), but that won't last long. I have a list started on kutterhd site already.

Dude sweet! The Dynas are a sweet ride for sure and I am sure you'll miss the sweet bob but congrats on your new ride

Congrats on your new ride!

I've been on my Heritage for 1.5 years now and can say I am super happy with it.

You can lean just as much...those floorboards will scrape and pivot up to give more lean angle.

Go ahead and scrape the floorboards. I do it almost every ride on my sofftail.
