New Softail Owner!!
Just traded in my 2008 Street Bob for a new 2012 Heritage! I am SOOO in love. Shouldn't have done it, but so happy I did. I loved, or TRIED to love my Street Bob, but there was always something that just wasn't quite 100% right for me. I did things to make it "fit" me, I tolerated the fact that I always felt I had to "drive" it.
I actually went out of curiosity to check out the new Switchback. I test road it, and I test road the Heritage. The Switchback was really nice - felt better for ME than the Street Bob, but the Heritage won me over. (I've always thought I might some day like one). Everything worked out and I rode home my new baby. I think I finally found the right bike for me!

Congrats on the new Heritage.
I am on my 4th, an '09, soon to be 5th, '12 Heritage.
I am on my 2nd Street Bob, an '11. Man, I love these 'Bobs!!
To me the Heritage is the best bike for touring, (I tried a RK and hated it).
The StreetBob is best for playing around and just riding by myself.
I am going to try to wait until Jan to get the new Heritage. My wife said
that I should not get two new bikes in a year time span, (I got a '10 WG in
July 2010 and the 2011 'Bob in Jan 2011.)
Hope you enjoy your new ride!!
