Well, based on this will be my first harley and they are expensive as hell, I figure I would take a pole just to get some opinions on which is more fun, you can throw the nightster in as well, but seeing my wife is looking to ride with me after talking about it, I am looking too at the dynas. I will use the bike for all around, short trips, longer ones, and quick rips down the road when I need to blow off some stress from work. Also, is the street bob harder to handle than fat bob due to apes? thanks

 

I have a fat bob and love it. But I would like to have a Street Bob too. I guess ride both and see which one you would like better in the long run. I rode a nightster today and damn that thing was nice.

 

I can already predict the outcome of this.
Fat Bob owners are gonna tell you to go with the Fat Bob
Street Bob owners are gonna say there bike can't be beat.

Well, that is why they make more than one model. The bikes are targeted at two different tastes in style, comfort, etc.

My opinion?
The Street Bob looks damn cool. I've never rode one though. But it has a more old school "cool" factor to it.

The Fab Bob (which I do own), is just a different look. But the bike rides great, especially if you do any two-up riding.

I would think they would both perform well, since they are both Dyna's. They just have a different style to them. You have to chose which one you like the best.

 

I agree they are almost the same bike and I have owned two street bobs and loved both but I like the look of the fat bob so I put a wide glide front end on my bob and installed a 16 inch front tire so I guess I have a fat street bob. Test ride them both and get what you feel is good for you.

 

It's kind of a blond, brunette or redhead thing.

As long as your riding one of them your doing just fine.

 

So a Fat Blonde and a Street Red walk into a bar.....

I think it was a scene from Three's Company.
