Street bob vs wide glide
So I'm in the market for a new bike and I'm in between these two bike. I have eyes I don't need you to tell me one looks cooler than the other I'm more interested in the differences in riding mainly due to the front end and how they feel and handle and stabability differences. Btw if I got the street bob I would get forward controls.

I may be just a bit biased, I've owned 3 Wide Glides and plan on acquiring more old Wide Glides once I'm back home in Florida. The Wide Glide is the finest bike HD has ever, or will ever build.
I wouldn't trade my Wide Glides and if HD didn't build this bike, I'd have built it myself. The handling is something you'll learn to work with if you practice a bit with her; parking lot slow speed exercises, and you'll learn how you'll need to modify your corner entry, body position, and throttle control when you're in the curves. I run with a crew of sport bike riders and this Wide Glide does the job; you just need to do yours
Channel your inner Wyatt, learn what the Wide Glide needs; and she'll surprise you...

test ride them both. very different. all the mid controls vs forwards and other fitment options are irrelevant if you are buying new or ordering. worry about that stuff later. get a feel for the bikes with test rides.....
my question is why did you skip the low rider? it sits between them. try them all.... all of them every single dyna. ALL.
