6...

I am 57 and ride a FXDLI.

You're too old when you're 6' feet under!

Follow your heart, it will rarely lead you astray.

I am not a "bagger" guy, but, that doesn't mean I will not be tomorrow.

 

My dad is 55 and likes to ride my Street Bob. He likes the Dynas, as do I, because they have a more old school feel than a fully decked out air ride bagger.

The Switchback is a good mix between the two if you want something lighter and more nimble for around town that can also do serious miles in bagger mode.

 

48 and really diggin my recently purchased swithback.

I'm too small for a bagger, just didnt feel comfortable
on the street glide like i do on the FLD

 

thanks guys money is an object and my 07 king will be
paid off in march 2014 and then I will probley buy me an
older pre loved dyna switch back and put a fat boy front
end on it with super glide exhaust with the baffles knocked
out and I'll throw the baggs away. I am sure thankful to
know that I'm not by myself on this one

 

I rode a '01 Road King for ten years following twenty five years of Shovels of different FX and custom flavors. I loved it, especially on long trips, and thought it would be a twenty year bike. The problem was that for every mile of highway touring I did I spent five in the hills of my local riding area and commuting 50 miles a day to work. I often thought that a Dyna would have been a better choice for an everyday ride.

In the summer of '10 I crashed the Road King. Other than a couple of small road rash patches I came out OK and rode the bike 15 miles back home. Unfortunately, although I thought the damage relatively minor, the insurance company called it totaled and paid me the going rate in my area for the bike.

Enter the current ride, an '07 FXD. I love it and it may be a twenty year bike. ;-)

I'm a lot older than 53 too.

 

For a long time I owned both, but when the wife said she did not want to tour anymore, I got rid of the Ultra, now I just have the dyna.....granted its not a touring bike with all the luxury of radio, storage etc but it serves me well......and i am a lot older than 53.

 

I have both...2010 Ultra Classic and a 2011 Fat Bob....the Ultra I use for Touring and the Fatbob is my daily rider. I love them both.

 

68 and ride a superglide never could get the hang of baggers but ride mostly in town or 2 lane roads,friend of mine has a bagger and loves it, 20 years younger but rides mostly freeway.

 

I'm 49,and for the last five years rode a '06 Road King Classic.Last month I sold it to my brother in law and bought a '12 Street Bob.I really loved the RKC,but was getting a little board with it.Most of my riding is local,not to much touring and always ride solo.I wanted to try something a little lighter and sportier.I think the Dyna SB is just what I want and need.And if things don't work out w/it,no big deal,sell it and find what I want......But I don't think that's going to happen for a long time!

 

I am 61 and I ride a Dyna FXDC (107") My bagger is a '77 FLH, my sport bike is a '90 FXRS-SP and my fun bike is a 54 rigid bobber with early Shovelhead engine, kick start. To old? Nah!
