Streetbob
Kinda newbie to the world of bikes, so be gentle lol.
Im looking to upgrade to a larger bike and looked at a 2016 streetbob. Love every bit of it, but its such a tall bike compared to a heritage. And Im a taller guy and the bike already has tall bars on it so thats a plus. Just wondering if the height of the bike makes that much of a noticeable difference in maneuverability or anything. Ill attach a photo of the streetbob sitting Beside a heritage.

How tall are you? My buddy is 6'4 and said fit was perfect for him on the street bob. Could have used foward controls though. The bob will feel more agile than the heritage. Dynas are great bikes what are you moving up from?

im 63 and the bike does feel like it fits great. Especially with the taller bars. The heritage stock bars feel terrible and awkward. Im thinking the same with forward controls, but the previous owner added highway pegs so Im sure I can get by with that to rest my feet on going down the road.
I have a XG500 now so its a much needed upgrade.

Congrats on the upgrade, like I said before dynas are great bikes, I'm wanting a touring model in a few years but I won't get rid of my dyna for it. It was a toss up between the street bob and the low rider for me and the low rider already had the passenger setup vs having to buy seat and pegs on the street bob so thats what won me over lol.
