Default deciding in two weeks

...it's either going to be a Streetbob or a Superglide Custom

depends on how the bike feels when i sit in it, and the contrast between the look of the engines and chrome

a few things are for sure:

if it's the Superglide Custom.... Vivid Black, forward controls, lowered shocks in rear, solo seat

if it's the Streetbob.... Vivid Black, forward controls, maybe a different solo seat (stock looks a little fluffy....anyone know if that brawler seat harley makes is any thinner?)

....eventually, either one will get a 21inch front wheel sometime in the future

i know the bob will be cheaper, but i can't get away from the chrome on the custom

...will keep you all posted, and will post a pic....=-)

Break away from all of that shiney chrome and come to the dark side!

interesting .......

In general I think these bikes are pretty polarizing, and I'd guess that most who are buying a dyna are pretty clear on which direction they want to go.

I suggest, if you want the chrome, to get the lowrider....the gauges on the tank keep the handlebars much cleaner looking.

Street Bob? Everybody has one now!

How about save some $$$, and just get a Superglide? The money you save can be used to customize it to your style, or leave it as is, and just ride it!

just one thing that sold me on bob right away,was the mini ape's . plus the looks,plus the cost . good value . the mini ape's really save my back from hurting.
