Best Bobber

Hardly surprising that an american bike came out on top in this review, Chris Cope is an american..... Just enjoy your Bobber and ignore anything he has said.....

 

We should also take in consideration that this is one of the only style bike that HD does. They definitely don't do Hi performance! After owning two Harley's I will say that in my opinion, they really do paint and chrome well. If you like polishing is your thing over actually riding!

 

Good read, he did announce his bias and only picked the scout with a gun to his head and then said he would change the whole “look” . My take on the review was Bonnie had better price, technology and rider position (especially if you’re tall) and he had trouble splitting them

 

Lighten up guys! after all, it's just one man's opinion and it hasn't been written in stone!

 

I’m American and I can not stand Harley Davidson bikes.
Nothing about them appeals to me. The stance, the tank, the style to me is shit.
The writer of the article talks about how much he likes the triumph yet likes the Indian better.
Come on, talk about biased!

Triumph wins hands down and the sales numbers prove the Triumph bobber is the more desirable bike of the 3

 

The only thing I see a H-D twin good for is they would make a great air compressor. Two big low RPM cylinders turned by a REAL engine, pumping air into that fat gas tank. Never wanted one. Even for free. ...J.D.

 

What Harleys did you have, mplineman? Have you seen any of the newer H-D bikes? Nary a true bobber in the bunch other than the Street Bob. And that "bobber" is really nothing like the Indian and the Triumph bobbers.

Check out the specs on this bike in the link below related to your comment that Harley's "definitely don't do Hi performance". I have a Triumph 2019 Speed Triple RS, a 2017 H-D Dyna Low Rider S, and a 2017 H-D Road Glide Special with a Stage IV engine upgrade. All have more than enough HP and torque! I love each one but for differing reasons. But each one is definitely hi performance!

I just test rode an Indian Bobber yesterday at a demo day event. My opinion based on just that 10 mile ride? Meh..... I would look really hard at the Triumph Bobber, though. Love the looks of that bike but I've never had the opportunity to ride one. Our Tucson Triumph dealership has never had a demo day event like the Indian and H-D dealerships in Tucson do. Pity. Riding them is the best way to really know if you'd like to, well, RIDE them!

I loved my Bobber, I only let it go as I needed to raise some cash for a new business. If and when finances allow I will have another in a heart beat. Gorgeous looking bike IMO, and so much fun from the way it pulls, handles and sounds. My only minor criticism was the small fuel tank.

 

Put my deposit down yesterday for a new Bobber TFC.
This is going to be a change in riding position for me as I never had a relaxed, low seating position bike.
Currently I have a 2016 Norton Commando SF and A 2017 Norton Dominator Naked.
Did I make the right choice going to a bobber?

 

Only you will truly know if it is the right choice. I’m guessing you had a long test ride before you parted with any monies....

 

Nope. Site unseen. Just like I did with my Norton’s

 

Fair play mate. I hope it lives up to your expectations..

You related to Ron by any chance.

Wire-Wheels
I'll have it. Harleys are still king of custom in my book and I love Triumph But if BSA rekindled the fire I would swap my Triumph for one.

Joe

 

Well said Sandi T.
Each to their own. I just love bikes. And yes I really do miss my wide glide. And yes I love Triumph's equally. Yes every one chooses a bike for a specific reason and what one bike has another bike differs that is what makes us the riders unique.

Joe.

 

Ron who?
