Hells yea , Webby the thing that amazes me now with my little Street bob is just that, as it's a small feeling bike my brain is still at the Shovel and Evo days right when only the big inch bikes could roll on at top gear and clear out and just bark loud and proud right , I'd have to fish gears and punch it to catch up but this "little" bike feels like it's got all that and more on tap ,it's very deceiving. I forget as it's such a compact little bike it's 107 cubes man.
Right on! very good descriptions both of you. Yeah man these new M8 motors have put Harley on a whole new level. I tell my friends my M8 RK is unlike any Harley I have rode. Power is fantastic I'm running a stage 1. But your SB is about 200 lighter I think? So that little bobber you got must be Very Fun bike!
Same impression I had on the Heritage. Handling was better than the King, but it’s lighter. Had no complaints about the suspension either, but the positioning just felt a bit cramped. And I’m only 5’9” @ 160lbs.
If I could swing a second bike it’d hands down be a Low Rider. Awesome retro looks and paint - specially the black.
I had the opposite feeling with my RK handles better than the Heritage has 32 deg. lean angles both sides. I do not feel the 100lbs weight difference.

yeah, and the steering rake is tucked in tighter on the King than the Heritage so it corners better..26 vs 30 degrees..tho the King is and 1.5 longer so has a little more wheelbase..bottom line is there's no good or bad or right or wrong obviously...whatever feels best to the test rider is the one to get
