Hi I'm Warren from England and I've been an avid motorcyclist for 35 years.
I joined the ranks of Harley ownership last year when I purchased a 2004 XL1200R, which I enjoyed immensely. This year I decided to purchase a new Street Bob which suits me down to a tee. I love the minimalist look.
I won't be going too radical on it, but so far I've changed the shocks for air shocks, put on some fork boots an added a pillion pad in order to take my boys out for the odd trip. The mufflers are Rush and sound ace. I will hopefully be changing the rear light as I think the chrome looks out of place, I've also got a matt black air box cover arriving shortly.
I recently had a test ride on a Blackline (love the looks) but don't like the feel of the balanced engine at all...... no vibes = no character.... That's only my personal opinion which don't account for much anyway, so I hope I haven't upset anyone.
