    I’m 6’4 260 lbs. this is my first bike. Just bought it Saturday. A few modifications to get it comfortable. But for me, I feel it’s a great first Bike. Sink or swim.

      I’m curious tho, I’m shifting gears between 2300-2500 RPMs and coasting around 2100 RPMS.
      What RPMs are you shifting at? You seem experienced and I’d hate to be damaging my bike.
      I know you mentioned doing 62 in 5th gear. I’ll be doing 62 in 6th gear. Which is also how the manual says to do it.
      So I’m curious, am I doing it wrong and should I change this before a damage something?

    Congrate bro. Pity for the stupid price. StreetBob was my fist test ride at Harley then I decided to buy XL1200T new for cheap and touring capability. The highway it sit on the 5th gear all day no struggle at 75mph.
    The breaks on the Streetbob are not existing compared to my sportster. I was shocked.
    The power delivery is good.
    Confortable ride and much more stable than a sportster when cornering. The sportster feels like going to go break in half when cornering right and left. The street bob is stable and feels solid.

    Congrats, I have an 2018 fxbb with a 114 stage 4. I also thought the rear brake sucked until I put forward controls on. It works great now with the better leverage. Shiny side up.

    I just picked up a 2022 Street Bob with 1900 miles a week ago. I was looking at new ones but the previous owner had added cruise, forward controls, Arlen Ness air cleaner, Cobra neighbor haters and led turn signals. These were all things I was going to do to a new one if I bought one so for $11,999 I couldn’t pass it up!

  • @paulsmale5436
    @paulsmale5436 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The brakes get better after they do a thousand miles less even, also mids make braking harder as your foot pressure is down and being your legs are forward of centre makes this even worse. Forward controls are better for the rear brake and forward controls with a swapped out brake pedal off a breakout or sportglide is even better, allowing full forward pressure as much as you like. Coupled with ABS and you can slam on them as hard as you like. Worth considering Arlen Ness floating 15inch front wave rotor and swapping out the rear for a floater too! EBC HH Sintered pads will make this setup bang on.

    Dude first not a crappy video, I bought a used 2021 Softail standard that had 3,000 miles on it and the great thing was the previous owner did nothing to it , so I was getting an untouched bike ready for the mods I wanted to make , sure it was used but looked and rode like a brand new bike.......for thousands less I think it was almost 4,000 less........ Anyway I wanted a street Bob but didn't have the money so I've been turning my standard into a Street Bob by blacking the bike out (totally) and I also got street Bob tank decals from fooqs decals and installed them on the tank and clear coated it to hide the decal edges....... Bike looks exactly like a vivid black street Bob with gloss black parts instead of the black wrinkle parts the street Bob has on it , which is another bonus for me I didn't like the wrinkle finish that the street Bob came with. Thanks so much for the video, nice to hear others opinions......

      @elijahalexander3959 I agree. The street Bob keeps an older style look of the Harley's compared to the low rider. Definitely one of the reasons I went with it. That and the price point.
