Hard to believe but I have had both in the last 36 months, and 03 FXDL (current) and prior to that I had an 07 FXDB. If I had to do it over again, the bob would be in the garage, but only because of the extra cubes and the 6th gear.

I have no idea whether or not HD brings back the Low Rider.

But if they do I hope they bring it back in a form recognizable to the previous Low Riders.

Not a big fan of what they did to the "re-born" Wide Glide. Not a bad bike but certaintly not a "Wide Glide" in the traditional sense.

I have a lowrider and really enjoy it. It came down between the lorded and street Bob when I was getting mine and I chose the more comfortable ride for me. To each his own lol

why? So that ya'll can sit and talk and wonder. Then a few years down the road they can have the second coming, (I can see it now the "Blackline Edition FXDLB". Stripped down basic machine for 18K and people will stand in line to buy it. The MOCO ain't completely stupid.
