As an owner of a 2023 Street Bob I love it. It is an old fashion no frills motorcycle. My former bike was a 2022 Nightster. A beautiful but unreliable bike due to its electrical issues. I do wish that it had ABS brakes and a windshield standard. I did lower the ape bars and I added a sissy bar with luggage for everyday riding. I intend to traverse THE TAIL OF THE DRAGON to see how the bike performs on a tight and curvy road. The bike lends itself to many modifications as seen on RU-vid.
Ive test ridden a couple of these and plan on buying one soon. Fortunately, i found a dealer actually selling it for MSRP and not adding the 4k markup. That being said, this thing is awesome. The low end torque is incredible and gets the adrenaline pumping. I know Im getting a new seat immediately so i dont slide back too far when i hit the throttle.
If you like that look, the Softail standard gives you a similar look for 13,999. Great platform to make it what you want! The fit and finish is top of the line…ps look at the HD Nightster if you want something more sporty with a little more tech for 12,000😎…. PSs new sub brother
You will love it! I'm 66 and been riding for 50 years. My first Harley was a 75 Sportster 1000 that I bought on my 18th birthday. Throughout the years I always wanted another Sportster but they are just too small for me at 6'2' 230 lbs. I call my Street Bob my Big Man Sportster. I also have a Harley Street Glide and a Big Dog custom bike. Careful now, it has some torque and the throttle is a little sensitive.
I’m not a fair weather rider, I commute all year round rain etc, is this the best HD to commute on? Also since when don’t people tour on naked bikes? I rode my Triumph T120 around Australia. 🇦🇺
But i do know I'm renting this bike in a few weeks and crashing a harley event and pretending to be one of them 😂 they'll never be the wiser when i show up in a half shell, vest, and bandana hanging out my back pocket
$18000!!! thats ridiculous. harley out there raping people with their prices. so many other bikes that are just as good or better for 5/6000 less. harleys name isnt worth the price hike
