     Harley davidson virgin rider and only rode a new softail slim so far, still pondering on what to buy out of 3 or 4  bikes I like the style of :

    softail slim

    fatboy lo

    wideglide

    rocker c

    any opinions on these that could steer me in the right direction ( not a virgin weekend only bike rider though   )

    Yep try and ride them all pick the one you fall in love with remember it's your money you are spending, many people will give you many different opinions and in the long run it will do your head in but since you asked the one I would chose would be the the Softail Slim cheers.

    Yeah. I think you'll get a wide range of opinions here. Take them all out and see how you feel on each.

    I am with choco though. Out of those listed, I like the softail.

     hi,

    go the wide glide or the fatboy lo man, classic styling

    buy what you want even if it means sitting on a stock bike(near stock) until you can afford a few extras

    thanks

    Go to the show room and test them all out.

    My own opinion, give the Muscle a test ride, not your average HD.

    5'4, 130 Kg, Fatboy low 
    68 Yo, Glide 
    gay, rocker c 

     I suppose I left the door open for banter   Looking at the above chart I suppose I'm in between the slim and fatboy , certainly not gay I like female (.y.) far too much
