this is so true, i am from india, and i listen to every single video reviews, especially before i was a harley owner.

Just bought a 2019 street bob as my first bike ever and couldn't be more happy with it!

[@elvissinatra3120]

Same. I got a 2019 as my first bike. Love this thing. I got that matte grey

[@BikeFriendlyTexas]

I’ve got a 19 Street Bob for my daily commuter. Couldn’t imagine any other bike being a better commuter. Comfortable and plenty powerful to keep safe in traffic.

[@enderzebak2863]

I have never driven a harley but i would like to ask this. How is it like riding a harley street bob? Is torquey? Like does it pull u back when u accelerate? Sorry for too many questions

[@MA-xf2lu]

Indeed, it does

[@Michael-zy7jv]

How is it long distance without any seat upgrades

[@turtle19dad]

@@Michael-zy7jv I talked with someone who bought the 2019. He did a ride from Riverside to San Diego (about 80 ish miles). He said he was not a fan of the stock seat. (I was test riding one).

the street bob will become a classic ive been riding 56 years and its the best harley i have ever rode thay can do it all well i live in the uk and it copes with our twisty roads and lanes like no other harley i have ever rode its so much fun

I have a 2019 street bob in industrial denim grey with ABS and I absolutely love it.

[@MattLaidlaw]

I’m a big fan of that color.

[@pinhead_sid]

Matt Laidlaw that color is a big part of why I bought it instead of a previous year.

The one that Brian Klock and company built for Daytona Bike week giveaway is awsomnes!!

[@Razor-CCT]

got an 19 fxbb with the intention of going across the country. big seat, windshield, cruise control, bags, crash bar and im all set. i think this scooter can do a ton. looks cool to hop around town on and works fine to go on tour. sub 15k for a new m8, cant beat it. Dan score of 10

[@paulbronnenberg2075]

I could not agree MORE with your "opinion" on the Milwaukee 8. I transitioned to the Milwaukee 8 three years ago and I love it !

[@ju4n831]

I'm buying one of these this week, I'm coming from a 2015 R6. I test drove one and I fell in love!

[@kevincartwright6372]

Just traded up this week from my 13 iron to the 2020 Street Bob in River Rock Gray and I'm absolutely in LOVE with this bike.

[@mattlo4563]

Own an ‘18. After the personal mods, especially the forward controls i pieced together (6’4 rider), I love the bike. Great performance, comfort, and lots of fun.

[@MattLaidlaw]

👍🏻👍🏻 nice man.

[@russmode]

Same, kept stock mids, added higher bars, exhaust, V&H Radius, HD Springer seat, swing arm bag, 20 year-old son, 17 year old daughter even love it..riding, good pair with our 05 RK.

[@marcusquinn8593]

I bought a street bob purely from watching your original video when they were released. I'm very pleased with it, it is a great bike. It does everything better than my old 48, although it doesn't quite have the same curb appeal or smile factor. Wherever I went on my 48 I couldn't help but grin. It was uncomfortable and vibrated, had no ground clearance and a ridiculously tall first gear but it just made me smile. The street bob is better in absolutely every way; power, handling, comfort and stopping ...... but It feels more like a regular bike. I love riding the street bob but it doesn't make me "feel" and "grin" like the sporty did.

[@ivangrozdanov8567]

Just test rode a FXDB and a fxbb. I feel like the fxbb was super easy to ride and barely felt like it was on on idle, but for me personally the shakiness of the Dyna and the sketchiness of the Dyna is way more fun. Now if you're going to be commuting a lot on the bike then the fxbb would be the way to go but for around the town fun it felt like the Dyna feels way more fun and badass.

[@CunoWiederhold]

Great video Matt! My first HD was a used 1974 FXE Superglide that I bought in 1979. It was both kick and electric start. The old Superglide's had a 3 1/2 gallon gas tank and though it was limited, I managed to ride all over several counties. I lived in Ventura county and went to Long Beach and Santa Barbara all the time. It was a blast to ride and I wish I had kept that bike! People used to always say "Oh, those AMF bikes leak oil, never start and were unreliable", but truthfully, Mine never leaked oil, always started by the 2nd or 3rd kick (I could use the electric starter but I didn't want to strain my thumb. lol) and always ran! My only complaint was that I needed to adjust the chain all the time, but that's a small price to pay for all the pleasure I got in return! One lesson I learned about a 3 1/2 gallon tank was that once you are on reserve, you better start looking for gas because if you ran out, you didn't need a gym membership! LOL - OTL

[@dirty2307]

Haha I still have my 1974 fxe . It is still running after many thousands of miles . I am proud to say it's an AMF . Its been all over the U.S. There were times when it was my only transportation . I bought a 2019 fxbb . Power is great , mechanics great , comfort sweet . I love it .

[@jimtims8344]

I have a 2019 Street Bob. My first bike. I love it have about 1200miles on and I’m getting forward controls for sure. I’m 5’10” and I feel cramp on a longer ride.

[@Fatyaqui]

I love the look of it. I've narrowed my choices down to the Street Bob and the Lowrider. They are awesome looking bikes and I'm interested in a nice softtail. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work.

[@layla9016]

Yesterday i drove past Laidlaw Harley and all I can think about is the street bob ill be getting real soon Lol So Siiiiickk!

[@johnnyg5944]

I have a 2018 street bob and Its my first bike. I can tell you I enjoy every minute on this bad boy it's got the power and most importantly the freedom of the open road. I do want a bigger tank though I do get about 160-170 according to my gas gauge I'd definitely give this bike a 4/5.

[@dannyjoyce4809]

I had a 2007 streetbob a few years ago and recently picked up the 2019 version, its actually insane how much of a step up the bike is in every way from the older models. Great review man.

[@Ted_Stryker]

My wife and I have been trying to decide on which one of these bikes to get for her for a while. This was very helpful, Matt. Thanks.

[@Staletaters]

I have a 17' dyna Street Bob. I haven't ridden an M8 bike yet, but I think my 103 TC is a gem of a bike. Also, just throwing this out there, not only is it my first HD but it's my first bike as well and I am 24. So I feel that my bike is a little more "core HD" rider friendly than maybe an M8, but I love my bike regardless. I have gotten nothing but compliments on my bike, the latest from an FZ07 rider I came up on a couple of days ago. I love my bike, I thrash it hard, and Matt you nailed the point about being aggressive on this bike. I am probably moving up to a touring chassis for my next bike, but I recommend this to anyone thinking about this bike, especially as a first bike over a sporty. I think its got power for days, but its light enough that you aren't going to get yourself into trouble if you a responsible and respectful of the bike.

[@MattLaidlaw]

Nice man. Yes the twin cam street bob is a bad ass bike. Thanks for sharing your experience with it.

[@citizenpark2782]

Digging this channel... finally someone who explains the pros/cons of the latest HDs.

[@MattLaidlaw]

Thanks man.

[@thomasstropes4835]

I have a 18 streetbob, and absolutely love it. Only problem is the tank is too small. Gotta stop for fuel to often on a bike that is such a joy to ride.

[@tompayton84]

I agree with you on the sportster standpoint. I did an 8 hour stint from the Scottish highlands back down to home in England on my iron 883 and at that point I realised I needed a Harley upgrade 😂. I’m having my new fxbb street bob delivered next week!

[@MA-xf2lu]

I just got one and I am really happy with it from every single aspect: style, comfort, performance and price. However, I have added a side black leather bag and front tool leather cylinder bag in front of the rubber shocks absorbance (to hide them). Also, added an engine gaurds that help stretching your legs and a detachable pylon seat and a back folk that adds a lot to the bobber style and works perfectly well as a pylon back support or to fix your backpack. Overall, super happy with everything I’m getting out of it.

[@bobbyromo69]

The only reason I didn’t get a streetbob was simply the small tank I wanted a 5 gallon or bigger cause I was always stopping for gas on my 06 springer

[@dkelli6020]

After seeing this video and the stage 4 sportster video, I went ahead and got the street bob. Best choice.

[@birko8151]

loving my 2018 streetbob I do a mixture of highway and town riding and cant really fault it. A larger tank would be nice but love the look of the smaller tank, and coming from a 1200 sportster that I owned for 10 years and loved, its a awesome upgrade and certainly worth the extra money .

[@danielblair6592]

I eneded up getting a street bob because it was such a cut down bike but for reasons that most people hate. I wanted it because there was so much room to add stuff to it. I wanted to take a bike and make it my own so this was a perfect platform for me.

[@HJ-sn5gt]

Hey Matt, this is a “worthwhile video!” The ‘18 + Street Bob is a great Ride for $14.5K and one of the best Bobbers someone can buy for the money or a signature: Very Clean! I sell at Harley-Davidson of Ocean County, New Jersey and this bike is our best selling Softail and great to help new riders riding further; more riders need to know: Thanks!

[@MattLaidlaw]

I appreciate the comment! Keep gettin’ new riders on that Milwaukee Iron.

Hands down a awesome bike... in a perfect world I would have a cvo limited and one of these in my driveway.

[@renniesmith8073]

I've rode all the new softails and for a short ride bike I'd live one of these! I ride a Road Glide now which is a great bike but a street bob would be a blast on shorter rides!

I bought the 2019 Streetbob with abs and have loved it. I’ve customized it with sissy bar and small side bag with solo spring seat For me and can quickly change to two up large backrest 2 saddlebags for long hauls Michigan to Colorado n back. This is the all around baddest option to get I feel. Barely any bike has that versatility n power plus style

[@wescobts]

I bought a 2018 FXBB and i love it. I had to put forward controls on it. I felt the road manners are great, and it moves along nicely.

[@aeromaton]

Great review. I just traded a 48 Special for the Street Bob. If I had seen this video sooner I would have went straight to the Bob. Fortunately HD gave me my full purchase price for the Special for upgrading to the Bob. Loved the 48 Special. I bought it for the looks but soon found out exactly what you said in this video. Its not a high speed freeway cruiser. Now I love the Street Bob. But I still think the 48 Special is the best looking factory HD made.

[@MA-xf2lu]

100% Very true..

[@NokternaL1]

I bought the gloss black fxbb last week and so far it’s an absolute blast to ride, and I did go from riding R1s the last 10 years. First Harley. Really liking the vtwin

[@MattLaidlaw]

Awesome man. Happy to hear you’re liking it. 👍🏻

[@mattthegreeter9074]

Oh, there was a Street Bob in the video? Hahah. Nick's Low Rider is one of my favorite builds, so I might have to watch again and pay more attention to the Bob! Although I love my '09 Low Rider & have no plans to part with it, you've put the Street Bob in a good light for me. Certainly looks worth a test ride. Nice job as always Matt. If I ever decide to switch coasts, there's only one H-D dealership to consider, & that's Laidlaw's. Looks like a decent place to work as well!

[@roycarman9886]

I'm 68 and too old to ride anymore but I have great mems of riding back in the late 90's - early 2000's. I owned a '98 Fatboy and a 2000 Road King. Harley will forever be my choice even when my final choice is at the Pearly Gates LOL. Not sure if Bible Digger was being a smart ass but regardless I find Matt's product knowledge and frankness on the pros AND cons fascinating and informative!

[@MattLaidlaw]

Thanks man

[@jamescollins5073]

Nice video, i purchased the 21 bob with the 114 and its a beast, although the mini apes got old and decided on a bar swap to drag bars. So far i changed the seat to a Saddleman Profiler, and rear stretched fender and wrapped front fender, so im guessing i dont have a bob any longer.

[@mathewkulczyk1645]

Hi Matt, Ive been riding bikes since about 20 years old and had mostly Honda models in the smaller ranges of displacement. The largest being a 650 cc. I haven't been riding for several years now but I have the "BUG" again and the street bob is a Great looking ride choice for me in my 60's now. I haven't ridden one yet but will soon and I love the way it looks and how it feels as I sit on it. Thanks for your videos on this and other models and it's helped me out with choices for my FIRST Harley Davidson. Ride safe and take care.

[@kcfox3130]

should come with an option for a larger tank & speedo off the old breakout

[@zacharycarlile4513]

I was originally planning on getting a Iron883 as my first actually bike that I own because i hated the look of the softtail street bobs. (I loved the dyna street bob) However when I went to the dealership to do some window shopping the other day I looked at the new streeet bob and got to say im definitely sold. Will be picking it up as soon as I can get my down payment together.

[@steamdome9162]

The Street Bob is definitely one of Harley Davidson most bad ass bikes.

Haha. Us seasoned riders feel that way I suppose.

[@libras322]

I always look forward to the content you share with us the community thank you for taking the time to do so it's very much appreciated. You are spot on about your view of the sportster "realistic". I fully agree with you. I am a sportster owner it's the only Harley I can afford I love them they are great bikes but realistically speaking if I could afford to upgrade I would and think most people would also. I have never sensed hate from you towards any model. Again thank you for all the content you provide us

[@bav114]

Great review as always. My girlfriend went from a Dyna Street Bob to a Softail Street Bob. You are correct that the Softail is much improved in every way. I love the power to weight ratio and the handling. I find it’s a bit small for me (I’m 6’2”). She has toured with me but she has a windshield, sundowner, cruise control, rack and highway pegs so no problem. She does have to fuel up twice as often as my Road Glide though. It’s great value for a Harley.

[@MattLaidlaw]

I always appreciate comments from people who own the bikes and gives their perspective. Thanks!

[@petef.4688]

Hey Matt! Thanks for the in-depth reveiw! I was like you said, debating between the bob and iron1200. This is the best video on this bike out so far. I'm different than you though, much shorter and lighter so with a corbin seat, some bags and the extended reach risers on a drag bar. I think it's gonna be fine on my summer rides. They usually go about 3-5 hours one way . This will be a million times better than a 250 virago with a spring seat hahaha

[@MattLaidlaw]

Thanks man. Yes you’ll definitely like it more than the virago. Enjoy man.

[@Love4boost]

I had a Dyna street bob. Test rode the softail. It just didn’t stand out as a upgrade. I thought it felt restricted and I didn’t want to rev it out. The ergonomics were a little different and I didn’t like that either. I was considering the low rider if I was going to trade into a softail. But I got a 2018 street glide special instead. It checked all my boxes for what I like. And it sounds way better and much louder than my 103 or even the 107 street bob. Also doesn’t feel restricted. It likes to rev and sounds good doing it.

[@larrys.3992]

Because of my first test ride on the FXBB, I bought a FLHCS. The Heritage Softail fit me better. Both are great machines. It's a matter of preference. My fourth HD and started with 1967 XL and my bike before the Heritage was a FLHTC, I owned 29 years. HD got the M8 right!

[@sandrafusco1576]

Very informative, great video. Terrible Roads. I can't believe how bad the roads look in CA.

We work in a place that has particularly bad roads. And the roads all were made worse by weeks and weeks of rain.

[@Daxm15e2s]

I love my 2019 Street Bob. Your first video on it is what made get it. I haven't done anything to it but I wanna go with a club style look and a stage one kit. Not sure on exhaust. I'm looking at Tab performance or a Thunder Header full system that they just came out with. Doesn't look like they have room for passenger pegs. Wonder if there gonna fix That?

[@annapetinis4840]

I have a street bob 2020, love it. I would like to lower it to give a different look. Would I have to change the kick stand/ side stand after altering it? Which one would you recommend? Does lowering affect the Handling? Thanks heaps.

[@fabiors10]

If I would change my Blackline it would be for this one, it looks so similar with the bars I put on mine. The only sin of this bike is the small tank, it sould be the 5 gallon.

[@Dude_Virus]

I liked the Dyna streetbob.. This one looks okay in design but the meter and tank are disappointing

[@fabiors10]

@@Dude_Virus yeah, the digital speedo has nothing to do with the classic style. Big mistake.

[@moparnut91]

@@fabiors10 yeah it's odd, but if they would have gone with the analog style gauge or gauges it wouldn't have had that original raw bobber style, so while it does look weird it still sorta maintains the look, but like he said for legal issues Harley Davidson had to give you something.

I almost bought this bike, but ended up with the fatbob. Love my fatbob! This is a bad ass bike though!

[@fantasticvalueformoney7242]

Thanks for all your great videos Matt and crew! This bike pulled me into my first Harley purchase which is ready at the dealer in Copenhagen, Denmark this week. Got it in denim gold with Thunderbike’s forward controls (I’m 6’6 as well), cruise control and a Whiplash Slipstream seat. Plans for the near future are a Roadwarrior fairing in denim gold, stage 1 with a 2-1 and a SE ventilator, t-sport style bags and different indicators. Next year a torque stage 2 is probably in order.

[@TigerJax007]

Are you happy with the setup? Reason I'm asking is that I am exactly the same height and just ordered mine 3 weeks ago - also with Thunderbike forwards and a Whiplash seat - though I went with the Gambler instead of the slipstream. Should be the same seating position I was told.

[@MCCJustMotos]

Great review. One point I wanted to make is that I had an Iron 1200 and was ready to upgrade to a Softail. Since they both had mini-apes I “knew”’ I was going to love the flickable handling. Surprise, I hated it, it handled nothing like the Iron 1200. It was much harder to turn-in and was much less precise. I ended up with a Low Rider and loved the handling of it.

[@MCCJustMotos]

I should say it was a way more comfortable suspension then the Iron 1200 all day long.

[@hilbily13sheepherder79]

Hi Matt just now watching this in December 2020 your talking about the frame and chief engineer and a link could you tell me exactly how to get that link I couldn't find it in wanting more explanation on the frame just for my own knowledge ok thanks

Will the older tanks fit on the new bike

[@fernandomagalhaes2957]

About the Street Bob riding position: I am 5.9". In order to avoid close contact from right leg to the air filter box, is any other seat than the stock one providing a more backward ( and higher) position? Will be it enough, or will it be needed forward controls?

[@TheRealJohnMadden]

[@oregonoutback7779]

Excellent review, once again. Really appreciate your no bull opinion on whatever your reviewing. I was a big fan of the old Dyna Street Bobs. H-D did a pretty good job of bringing them over to the softail chassis. The smaller tank is not a deal breaker for me, but would prefer a 4-5 gal capacity. The absolute deal breaker for me is the gauge. Don't like it at all. I much prefer the old school analog gauges on the Lowrider. I do love that you can get a blacked out model from the factory without spending a basket of cash in the aftermarket isle. Thanks and good job.

[@lazarus8447]

Sorry did you say you're 6'6"? Because I'm looking to get a FXBB Street Bob but was iffy about it because of my height and the comfortability of ridding around

[@kakhidzeoto]

did not get this bike last year and chose Sport Glide largely because of the narrow primary, in 2019 HD has improved Street Bob so its arguably the best priced Softail. Need to add some stuff - Saddlemen seat, risers with Tbars, road warrior windshield, left swingarm leather bag, VH black big shots staggered, or Rinehart 2 into 1, black gas cap and voila!

Good Day for everone, I am in between Sport Glide and Street Bob,which one do you suggest and Why?Both in the city and long travel.

[@steelhorsecountry5245]

The Softail Street Bob great bike! I call the Street Bob the King Sportster. Some complain about the small fuel tank. If that's the only thing stopping them just buy a bigger tank! For longer trips I would get a solo Sundowner seat rear fender rack and a tall sissy bar. The bikers in the 60's an 70's rode rigid frame choppers and small tanks for 1500 mile road trips. Street Bob Special be cool 😎. I hope Harley- Davidson comes out with one 2020 model on April 1st 2019!!!

[@shivermetimbers3218]

It's not as simple as just buying a different tank. The Lowrider has a dual guage dashboard whereas the Streetbob has it's sole gauge in the riser. You would have to do all new wiring etc. To make the lowrider tank work with the Streetbob.

[@steelhorsecountry5245]

Shiver Metimbers Will may be HD will come out with an option tank. Or may be the new FXDR 4.4 tank will fit. If a dealer lets me I'll try measuring. Even a Sportster 4.5 tank will work if it's custom welded to fix Street Bob.

I REALLY want one of these

what solo seat do you think can be used on this bike, other then the factory one?

[@lesgulyas8241]

Good Day Matt from Australia. Great review as always. Ride a MY18 Iron 883 great bike but I customised it by adding mini apes, sundowner seat, v/h slips ons and screaming eagle bags. Fantastic bike to ride especially with the upgraded seat. The fuel tank could have been bigger. Am thinking of upgraging to the Street Bob or Slim 107. Can you upgrade the tank on the Street Bob to a larger size tank?. If not I would be leaning towards the new Slim. Keep up the good reviews dude. Cheers.

Thanks for the review! Personally I have chosen a used Slim (old softail frame) over the new Street Bob last year when i was purchasing my first HD, being at the same price, the Street Bob just felt too cramped to me and i`m not a really tall guy - 182 cm with 32 inches inseam. However i do appreciate the modern techs of the new softail line and maybe will switch to it one day. Cheers

i love my fxbb18. hooligan style motorcycle. great handling. very good engine. i feel younger whenever i riede it. compared to my earlier flhx10 st1 the m8 accepts low rpm from apprx 1300 and for 2c stage 1 it was definitely below that.

[@MattLaidlaw]

Hooligan style. Nice. Is that like a flat tracker bike?

[@Axl_colts]

Great review as always Matt! I've always liked the street bob although I wish the mids were a little further out. Do you think HD will phase out the 107 motor in 2020?

[@moparnut91]

You said you are 6 '6? I'm 6 '8 so my question is with forward controls and a different seat how comfortable would the street Bob be for daily commute?

[@thomasangelo4219]

Really nice bike and for 14000 you're on a Milwaukee eight Harley-Davidson pretty reasonable thanks for the video Matt take care

[@Doobie603]

14k means 16-17k every time Ive gone to a Harley Dealership but the service you get there is worth it in my opinion.

2019 wicked red denim. Quite bike but every one I know loves it. What exhaust slip ones do you recommend

[@drainmonkeys385]

I’m becoming very fond of my street Bob .. I’ve had the iron 883…. It looks good.. but you’ll be like me once you get on the street Bob, you’ll understand.. I’m totally happy with the breaks too…

[@adriang2332]

Which motorcycle would be more suited for a taller person, the FXSTC softail custom, or a dyna superglide custom?

[@dylloop]

I'm looking at getting my first bike and am between the 883 and the street Bob. Would you recommend this as a starter bike or would the 883 more for in that catagory?

This question is for Nick …. Love what you have done to your Lowrider. Do you plan on keeping the AMF graphics on the tank? I know some of the younger generation like those. I lived thru the AMF years and it's like PTSD for me every time I see these graphics on a new model :)) If you like them, that's cool, but every time I see your bike, I imagine that tank solid black. I, like many others, keep our fingers crossed H-D will bring back the Lowrider S in a 114, on the softail frame. Absolute dream bike for me. Thanks for the great camera work.

[@TH3G0ODGUY]

I like the AMF graphics to be honest, I dont like all black bikes. Hence the chrome exhaust. But I get why they are controversial! Thanks for your comment!

[@mikeessary4925]

@@TH3G0ODGUY hello sir, does the 19 Bob brake better than the dyna s Bob? Also what should I do to improve braking if I buy a 2019 s Bob? Love your detailed take on things. If you get the chance I would appreciate it. Thanks

[@occyman]

Hey Matt...if you go with the Hold Fast sissy bar (and docking kit) do you need to do a turn signal relocation as well?

[@mr.nighthawk4502]

Only thing I really don't like is the new console on the handle bars personally I think the dyna model has a more practical setup
