Default 05 Deuce v's 07 Low Rider

Turned 40, looking to purchase my first Bike... I am 5'7, Was considering an 07 low rider. but dealer also has a Brand new 05 Deuce on the floor he can sell for around 15,500
Not sure what to do. Wife would also like to ride, (no license yet). so i was also trying to take into consideration that if she enjoys it, Then she could take my bike in a couple of years and i could get a new one. any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.


Still looking

If it was me, I would go for the Low Rider. Hey what would you expect a Dyna owner to say? I like the stance of the Deuce, but can't stand the rear fender. Plus the 07 LR will have a 96CI, & 6 speed motor. Pretty good improvements over an 05 Deuce. You didn't say what the dealer wanted for the Low Rider so I can't tell you if going for the LR there is a good deal or not.

I think the LR will be more comfortable 2 up also. I would go with the LR unless you are hurtin' for cash.

Make sure you feel comfortable with those forward controls on the Duece, especially if you have a passenger on board. I would go for the LR. Bigger engine and 6 speed is all the reason I need.

Both are good bikes. But, I prefer rubber mounting. It seems to just make everything a little smoother. But, it's your money, buy what you like.
