I was the one who encouraged my husband too & he is now hooked as well! My first bike (the one I learned on) is my 2002 Fat Boy & I LOVE Bob. And don’t worry about dropping a bike. The first day I owned my Road King, I dropped her. We all do it.
I love the bars!! Your audio is suuuper clear! Haha nice. I'm trying to push my girlfriend to get a bike too. Or learn anyway :P keep at it and congrats on the 100 subs. The first 100 are the hardest!
✋hey Whitney new subscriber here. Was introduced to your channel on the Fireside chat with the "Ball Cap Boys" . I ride a Sportster also. I have the 2015 XL883N the Iron. I love mine too. Got the stage one upgrade. I put Vance & Hines Short Shots, a V&H FP3, and a Arlon Ness Monster Sucker 90° high flow intake. It's beautiful. Black Denim. (But it scratches easy and it can't be buffed out, has to be repainted to fix) I hope you do a walk around of your Sportster. Congratulations on you Iron But ride. I maybe too old to do that. I'm 59. I don't know if I could stay up all night anymore to do that. Keep the rubber side down. Ride safely!
That view thru the bars looks like an old movie clip! Good job getting out of your comfort zone. Once it’s moving the size of the bike make little difference. Careful with the slow speed maneuvers.
Well done, I’ll give you a high-five for accepting that challenge! Looked like you were enjoying it! Those ape-hanger bars reminded me of some of the early ‘70’s ‘choppers’, when I first got into bikes.....Awesome!
You sure did well .I just sold my 98 wide glide ( had it 18 years) Bought a immaculate 2002 Fat Boy 6 weeks ago ( have not ridden it yet as was deep snow here ) intend riding it end of March. Rode one over 25 years ago at a Harley demo. Took me a long time to get one .So watching all these Fat Boy riding clips .Just wondering what the lean angle will be like compared to my FXDWG. Good commentary .As we say here , its the Nuts.
I'm with you, riding any of the used bikes at the Dealership I worked at with the apes just made me uncomfortable lol they're just not easy to move around at slow speeds XD I had to man handle a quite a few to take photos for the website etc they never grew on me haha. Good on you building the confidence to ride outside your comfort zone!
As the Magpie Flies oh man, I had the guys in service help move the bikes when I had to take photos of them. This year I’m going to try and ride his bike more for my daily commute, so fingers crossed. 24 inch apes though....not my first choice. 😂
That’s one cool bike, love the bars. As others have said, you’re audio is great. I’m not sure Soph will want to ride mine with her height and my bars! 😂 Renting bikes for events sounds cool! You doing any test rides this year too? I guess that would be good practice. Love the sound of the bike too! Great job on overcoming any thoughts or obstacles which have helped you get on it and ride!
High five! My name is Whit, I live in Florida, and I just bought my first bike a few months ago... it is an '08 anniversary fat boy! Ha ha! Such a great bike! Glad you like it
Great job down there! btw. this is so weird passion. Here I am, setting up for a morning weekend ride on my fatty, and I am watching a youtube video someone else riding xD
you are clearly a capable rider. if a a person can flat foot a bike at a full stop, then they can handle and ride that particular bike (it just takes practice and confidence building with miles)
You go Gerl 😁 High 5😂😂✌🏻 My Bikes that LOUD too. My Dogs start to go crazy in the house missus Smitty says,& then she heard me comin , then over the hill into view 😉😊😁🤘🏻🤘🏻 Rock On, Cheers🍻✌🏻
It looks like you handled the Fat Boy just fine. It definitely is not a good feeling to drop a bike... we've all been there. If you ever go for a test ride, give the Street Bob a try. It's a nice ride. I'm taking a trip out of state in late Spring and I have been studying google maps to the point that I know where every crack in the road is on my trip LOL. Great video.
I don't think that the size is as big as factor as fit. Some more comfortable bars and such and it would feel like being on your Sportster in no time at all. High Five!
Giving you massive High 5's! Not only is it bigger bike but those freaking APES! The handlebars being so high would of worried me. I'm fine with just getting to know my sportster 1200 more and more (I just got it Sept2020) previous rode 2006 Suzuki Volusia 800 for 2 yrs so I have no desire to ride other bikes I am looking forward to riding the most miles I've ever rode in my 3 yrs of riding and getting to know my sporty way more!
"My confidence riding anything big... bikes" lol, nice save. I haven't rode a Heritage myself, but just setting on one, it feels way lighter and much more comfortable than my Dyna. Maybe a lower center of gravity. People often comment on how easy they are to handle and how light it feels. Check out this vid from a Sportster owner testing a Heritage(maybe start at 7:15): ruclips.net/video/Q-vxf-_w9ag/видео.html
Wow, you have great clarity on your voice. It's so clean. Can you do a video on your helmet setup?
DDias86 I can definitely!
Nice job Whit! Those are some big ole bars on that fatboy.
Tony Cox right? That was the most intimidating part of riding it.
I was the one who encouraged my husband too & he is now hooked as well! My first bike (the one I learned on) is my 2002 Fat Boy & I LOVE Bob. And don’t worry about dropping a bike. The first day I owned my Road King, I dropped her. We all do it.
YASS!! perfect.
Good job. That's how my wife ended up with a Road King. She road mine and loved it, then she had to have one also.
High 5!
Richard Schwartz the 24 inch bars were something that I’m not sure if I can get used to though. 😂
I love the bars!! Your audio is suuuper clear!
Haha nice. I'm trying to push my girlfriend to get a bike too. Or learn anyway :P keep at it and congrats on the 100 subs. The first 100 are the hardest!
The GorillaBiker thank you! I hope she rides along with you soon! 🤞🏼 so much more fun in my opinion.
@@whitmeza oh she recently came on the back of the bike on video and all!! 😁 Just have to get her over to her own bike next :)

Keep the rubber side down. Ride safely!
Jeff Tilghman oh awesome! I did do a short walk around of my bike. It’s in a video just before this one was posted. Thanks for tuning in.
I love loud pipes 😍 you did great! You get a double high five for your courage to get back on hubby’s bike!!!!
Heck yes!
That view thru the bars looks like an old movie clip! Good job getting out of your comfort zone. Once it’s moving the size of the bike make little difference. Careful with the slow speed maneuvers.
Yes! Thank you! I am finding that out. It takes a bit more conscious effort to "slow" down and think with the larger bikes.
Well done, I’ll give you a high-five for accepting that challenge! Looked like you were enjoying it! Those ape-hanger bars reminded me of some of the early ‘70’s ‘choppers’, when I first got into bikes.....Awesome!
Steve Inskip the more comfortable I got, I definitely was. Thanks for watching Steve!
Nice a nice ride, it's a joy to ride open country roads.
It is!
High five! Congrats on overcoming that fear!
RickyNotSoMartin thank you!!
You go girl I'm proud of you. The sky is the limit. Ride safe and stay healthy you and the family. God bless
Danny Trudell thank you Danny!

Christopher Rice thank you!!

Thank you!
Also where's your camera located? Those bars look so tall for you🤣
DDias86 my GoPro is right at the bottom center of my helmet. These bars are so tall!!

Never stop challenging yourself. The rewards are endless.
Miller 9 Design yes indeed!

How crazy! Love it.

Absolutely! 👏🏼👏🏼

Veta Bordeaux oh absolutely. If I have the chance to ride one, I’d be up for it!
Riding a bigger bike coming from riding a sportster can be a bit unnerving. I still not comfortable yet. Though I'm working on it.
MyDunnLife practice makes us perfect right?
Amazing stuff
Thanks for watching!
I don't think that the size is as big as factor as fit. Some more comfortable bars and such and it would feel like being on your Sportster in no time at all. High Five!
So very true!
Giving you massive High 5's! Not only is it bigger bike but those freaking APES! The handlebars being so high would of worried me.

Burntupwoodburning By Matt thank you! It definitely was.

Such a cute accent, regards London UK 🇬🇧
Richard thick Wisconsin accent through and through! 😂
