Changed my Style

    Gidday, Changed my style due to being in an accident where my Streetbob was written off. Looked for another bike for quite a long while during my recovery & ended up buying a very low km Softail Custom. It looks bloody beautiful & meets fantasy from when I was young & loved Choppers, but I love riding too, so it had to be practical.  Never rode a Softail before this & have found it very smooth & comfortable. It sounds real good too with a cam & slashcuts. It doesn't feel as raw as the Bob did with big Rad 2into 1 which I liked, felt more bad boy. The Softy is more cruiser with forward controls, less vibes & cushy king queen seat & gallons of chrome. Would like to have one of each as I felt I could ride the Bob harder through twisties, but loving the Softy. Probably just taking a while to adjust before I scrape the shit out of the underside of the new member of the family, grinning like a Cheshire cat.

    A low slung bike always makes me slow down!  
    The FXR will carve up the twisties with the best of them, but my day to day 883 Low as ZERO clearance so its a far milder riding style (ie safer in theory)
