I'm 58 and ride an 06 Street Bob. Put 1500 miles on it last week and planning on about 2500 next week. Kinda thinking about a softtail deluxe for my next bike though.
Good Luck

I'm 51 and I ride a Fat Boy. I think I look pretty good on it.
I have yet to hear anyone say anything to the contrary . . . at least to my face

It's more what you want hte bike to do than your age. Also which style you like theh looks off. I know a couple of guys 60 something, i think one is close to 70 on sport bikes

I'm 28, I bought the deuce when I was 24. I'm 6'3", would have looked strange on a sporty...plus I had my eye on a deuce ever since they brought them out in 2000.

I just turned 36 and I ride a 07 Road King and a 06 Street Glide.
It's all in taste. If I was more into 2 up and my wife didn't have her own bike I'd probably have an ultra.
