I have a serious itch to scratch. Not sure if i'm getting tired of my 696, or just really really really want to build a bobber. Thinking of trading in for a used nightster to bob or maybe a bonnie black. ideas? maybe im jus getting bored of her. no idea. delicious  and the money shot. thsi fat front tire made me need new shorts    not sure i want to rake out the front... kind of too chopper less bobber |

This kind of just looks like more fun right now...  |

A dyna will give you better clearance and support two-up riding. of course, if you choose a long-distance tourer try the Streetglide which is lower than the Electra Glide and a much different feel (sportier at that). A bonus is you can get Brembos on them now too. I have an Electra Glide but have ridden big cruisers for over 15 years so I'm used to the size...........but I do loves me sum S4R |

You should go check out the new 48, the silver one is just gorgeous in person. They come with fat front and lowered/blacked out stuff already.

1st I'd say , they look neat but how do they ride and handle ? 2nd, if you can swing it .....keep the Monster and get one of the Bobbers. More fun that way ! Dolph  |

Great for cruising the boulevard, but what else?
Sure won't solve your two up dilema.
Need to tie your wants and needs together, sounds like two bikes, bobber and ST.
