That Street Bob is a real nice machine.
There's something just plain neat about a Harley Davidson motorcycle. There's the extraneous factors: the nostalgia and history; built in America by Americans; and, then there's the tangible factor that they're just plain fun to ride.

Unless the OP has cubicles set up in his house, I'm willing to bet that is at the dealership.

Nah the picture in the OP is the dealership, but the other pic I posted in the other thread (for some reason this got split into 2 threads...no clue why) is a pic taken from my basement.

Congrats! Nice bike. I did the same. Rode the other bikes for years. Always wanted a Harley. Only rode once years ago. Didn't get one until I was 55 years old. Should have been riding them 30 years ago. Nothing like a Harley.

I rode a friend's softail and knew I could never have anything but a harley. A while later another friend asked why I wanted a Harley so bad. I told him "It's kinda like sex, if you've never experienced it, I can't explain it to you."

However much the Harley 'haters' bitch about HD I think many of them secretly wish they had one.
Congrats on your new bike.
Congrats on your new bike.
I've had many of the other brands, Victory Hammer, VTX 1300, Speed Triple, a couple of R1s, a couple of ZX6r's, a Ducati 848 and a few others I can't remember right now. So I know what those bikes are all about and I can say that my Harleys give me the same feeling as the original poster.
Many people talk **** about Harleys and most do not really have long enough experience riding one to give it a good shake. A 45 min test ride with an EPA hampered Harley will not be enough to really appreciate HD bikes. These new Harleys are something else though. I freakin love em!
