Add me to the list of lovin' my Dyna, but I'm considering a used Heritage for a second bike cuz my g/f wants to go on some rides with me.
I'm not gonna add passenger pegs, seat, bags and back rest to my Street Bob...it's stayin' mean and lean.

When I went to my local H-D dealer for a test ride, the first bike I took a spin on was a Street Bob - fell in love immediately - I told the salesman - this is what a motorcycle should feel like. I took the Street Bob on the show room floor that had forward controls and never looked back. No softail for me.

I really enjoy my '08 Street Bob. I ride my neighbors softy every week while he is deployed and it rides real good but as soon as I ride his, I climb on my Dyna and it just seems more fun for me. I'm 59 years old and need all the fun I can get!! LOL! Why not sell the 3 you have and just buy yourself a softail?

The price of the soft-ride, the B-engine. The small powerloss caused by the balancers, no difference to talk about IMO, but good to know when a softguy feels the need to talk about how happy he made his stealer. :=)

Nice Street Bob's on here I like those. They're pretty sweet.

Simple... it's called scotchbrite and WD-40. That'll take the rust off and give a cool non chrome look to it with some protection from the salt air.
