Did the Hollywood bars pull back closer to you? I'm 5'9" and I feel like the stock apes have me a bit more stretched out than I'd like, even tilted back some... otherwise I love my Street Bob, picked up a 2020 model in October...

I own a 2015 gsxr 1000 awesome bike!! I test rode one of these today and have to say I think it’s one of the best bikes I’ve ever ridden amazing bike. Quick without being stupid and handles great. I am now selling my gixxer.

Trans am Awesome! Lovely bikes!

Love cruising down the motorways on mine, eats up the road easily. Bought mine from uppingham some nice roads round this way.

The styling takes me back to the early 80's when there were a lot of hard tailed chops around. I can imagine this bike with a buddy pad and a 4ft high sissy bar. I too am at the age where I think this bike could be fatiguing for me due to the narrow tank I'd have to clasp with my knees to prevent the wind forcing them apart. Also the high bars might wrench my arms off. Straight low bars on risers might help, but I'm told changing bars can be awkward because the instrument panel might not connect up. I understand what you mean when you say that the bike isn't planted in a straight line and needs to be wrestled to keep it stable. Perhaps Harley should increase the rake to improve stability.

Yeah! It's a really nice bike. I've got mine with the V&H Slip-ons. Fuel economy is still good. I use it for city rides, and I also think that the city is its best area. I'm short (5'6") and with that height I find the combination of the seat, pegs and handlebar a bit uncomfortable after 7 miles. I ordered the Sundowner and turned the handlebar a little bit backwards. In the city the size of the tank isn't an issue, but maybe it would bother a bit on longer journeys. Short people might find it manoeuvrable and fun :)

The Street BOB to me is just a larger Sportster. I think for your size forward foot controls would have been a better option. But other wise a great bike. Does it toss water and mud to the electronics like the fat bob does on the rear wheel? My guess is yes because it looks like there is a gap between bottom of rear fender and the lower skirt below the fender.
