I say the Street Bob is the way to go, in MN we are not gonna see the Fat Bobsuntil late Nov. I saw one in KS and right away thought how much I like my Street Bob, the color though on the Fat bob was cool looked black but was a dark charcoalcolor. I was second guessing myself after I bought mine, I've ridden sporty's forever and just moved up to the Big Twin and really still like the Springer Classic. I don't think chasing certain bikes will ever go away........

To me the Fat Bob looks like the fat girl with dimple thighs wearing shorty shorts and glasses.The SB looks lean and mean. That's my 2 cents.

Exactly - fat bobby makes little sense to me if ya already got a street bob. To me, if the fat bob is the direction in styling the moco is going, I may never get a new bike!

No matter what, you're going to take a beating on the trade in.I guess it depends on how bad you want the Fat Bob. I personally can't think of anything it does better than the Street Bob.I like the front end, can't stand the back.I could fix that if I had to but I don't.
