ebay bike-true Harley bobber?
So they called the "Street Bob" a "*** Bob"; Harley's poor attempt at building a bobber. Yet this is their version of a bobber? WTF? What some people will do to sell their bikes! However, I do like the springer front end.

RE: ebay bike-true Harley bobber?
I have to somewhat agree with this part:
"Absolutely one of a kind! You saw it here first. We built our own version of the new Street Bob. The factory Street Bob "Bobber" is Harley's sad atttempt at a factory Bobber. A bobber has always been taking a factory bike and bobbing/Chopping it, making it unique, and having something different. The absolute opposite of what the EDIT, sorry I mean Street Bob is. "
However I don't see how theirs is anymore a bobber than HD's version. They added a bling front wheel, still have signals etc I don't see too much chopped off.
IMHO HD built a great bike when they built the FXDBI...too bad they called it a street bob. I'm literally embarassed everytime someone asks 'what do you ride?' I usually just say a dyna. Flat paint doesn't make it a bobber.

Actually WillieG named this one this as per my research was one of his pet projects he was looking for a nostalgic spin off of a bobber. I don't see how it doesn't fit the basic profile for a bobber true that they are all the same at purchase but if anyones looked around here they are a factory bike which is modifyed. No they don't have whitewalls and round tailights ets but thqat are personal taste i bought mine becasue it was black all black and I like it I don't think that they're is a cookie cutter set of rules for any bike and I like that

You guys care to much what other's think, IMHO....
The springer front-end is badass. Ditch the whitewalls, and go with a different paint choice for me though....
I personally prefer the silver drivetrain. I think it's a nice scooter. Very well done. His opinion, is just that, his OPINION. I've had people rag on my Superglide. Oh well, don't really care. I ride it for me.
