I'm with ya brudda..... but that's just me. I like the look and ride of the standard (of course after I made it the way I wanted it). I am 6 ft. and it fit's me perfect.

 

Hey Trash... where at in Nebraska? I live in Lincoln and work in Omaha....

 

Beatrice. Small world isn't it?

 

Hell ya... 40 miles down the road. Did you make it up for the Abate show couple weeks back?

 

I just went from a 1200 custom to a Softail Duece. The only other Softail I rode was a standard. I'm 5'8" 185 and I wasn't as comfortable on the standard as I was on the Duece. I felt alittle cramped. As far as the difference, the Softail handles way better than the Sportster. It's really night and day. The Sport is top heavy. As far as I know the Softail is the most balanced bike Harley makes. You'll love it !!!

 

guess what i would say

 

My Standard and I have a great time together.

heritage 's the way to go..... retro is future ....

 

Yep, went up on Sat. afternoon & had a great time. Saw alot of nice bikes up there. One bronze colored Fatboy for $13,500.00 that really caught my eye. I need to get my Sporty sold so I can go bike shopping again. I did put some pics of my bike on the bathroom doors up there, but didn't get any responses. [:@]I have abuddy in Lincoln named Joe Snyder that rides a Fatboy. Know him? Maybe someday we'll meet up.

 

all i can say is i like mine..................good luck with your decision
