Never rode a Harley, but I've wanted one for years. Well, now I'm able to get one, I think.

I spent last Saturday at the dealership, just looking around and checking ride heights and handlebar configurations.

I did find a used Fat Boy that I liked pretty good, but I'm about set on the Fat Bob unless something else just calls my name when I've got the check in my hand

Last harley I rode was my one brother in laws 1954 hardtail.When he and his ex were first going out, he didn't have a car.
 He used to trade his harely for my car so he could take her out

My legs are pretty short (28 inch inseam) so a lot of bikes are a little taller than I like.My 1983 V65 magna was fun to ride, but some days it was hard swinging my leg over that bike at the end of a long ride

I've had standard bikes, and a couple crotch rockets, but never a nice cruiser. I'm too old for crotch rockets, and they don't make standards any more.

A friend of mine has a fat bob that he lowered slightly, I really like the bike except for the goofy oilslick paint job he did on it

The FatBob can be set up with mid controls instead of forward controls, so it'll ride more like a standard

I never liked crotch rockets.I still have a 1979 honda 650 hurricane I picked up 4 years ago.
 Haven't ridden it in almost 3 years, it is just too small.  I really need to sell it
