just buy a touring bike....after you hop on one you'll never look back. At first I had a dyna, then I sold it to buy my current setup. The other day a friend let me ride his StreetGlide.....nuff said. Night Train is up for sale....LOL

Default Thanks a lot for all the feedback

Thank you guys for all your input. Some useful stuff there. The rent preposition is the best and I will see what can I do about that and give you some feedback. It looks from all the opinions that in terms of looks and ride quality more prefer the cross bones over the street bob provided the springer seat is changed. Well my wife would ride as a passenger with me from time to time but I do not think she will be in for the long rides so that would be a small part of the decision but it is there. I also use the bike mainly for urban within the city cruising and an occasional trip maybe once a year or so.
