Street Bob / Green Pearl
 

Hi guys ,
Considering having a street bob as a second bike (currently I own a Roadking custom) -
Does anybody has any pics of the bike in Green pearl and black - I saw this two tone combination somewhere and in my opinion it really looks good!

Coming from a roadking what riding differences should I expect from thisbike in comparison to the touring line?
I am asking you this because good or bad here in Germany there is a lot of highwayriding involved - how street bob handles on the highway ?

Thanks
John

I think that color combination was just on the 06 models in a limited number as well.

I thought that green was an unlucky color,a very old superstition in the biker community? I won't own a green bike for that very reason!!!! Never laid one down,never had green gotta go with what works.LOL Dave...

Is it the olive green color you're looking for? If it is, I believe the pre-production pictures showed it with a secondary color of black on the tank and both fenders. But when it came time for production, I believe they only added the black to the tank. The fenders remained solid green. Here's one for sale in ebay. Not mine but you can see the color and what I mean pretty well.

Or are you refering to the Dragon Fly Green Lowrider? This color was not an option on the Street Bob. I love this color and would like to have a WG in this color scheme.

I've heard the superstition against green race cars but never heard it related to bikes or non-race vehicles.

green bikesare dangerous!!! thats why you don't see many out there cause there all wrecked. at least in my opinion I would never own one... not to be superstitious

RE: Street Bob / Green Pearl
 

Ive never heard of green as a bad luck color. Old superstition huh? Anybody out there can elaborate that story?

RE: Street Bob / Green Pearl
 

Yeah its the olive green colorIam looking for -like the one in the ebay link .

So in your personal experiences how does bob handles on the long distance traveling ? on the highway use - is it a stable solid bike ?
