Each biker is different from all the others, and so should their bikes be different too. I sold my Softail Springer a month ago, it was my bike for 20 years. I just bought a 2018 Street Bob and I am already in love with this Harley. First thing I did was replace the exhaust for Vance & Hines, and after your videos I must change for the forward controls. I would have stopped somewhere closer to your stage 2 (real old school bobber) but it´s nice to see what can be done with a Street Bob. Good job!
Harley Street Bob and Harley Fat bob are the two bikes in softail range that are built for customization. Awesome wheels, the colour very brave yet very cool. Dare to be different is what Roland Sands is all about anyway. Nice work.
Mate really like the passion you have for Harleys. Can you do a review of the 2019 lowrider, if possible, love to hear your thoughts. Keep up the good work. Cheers
im drooling all over it..its magnificent mark. i live in Kenya Africa and i sure hope i will afford a bike one time in my life. cheers mate keep posting the good vids
Once I got over the Dyna thing I rode all the 2018 Softails. Bit disappointed with the Fat Bob which does everything ok but nothing great, however was blown away by the Streetbob which has to be the surprise of the pack and is probably the best HD I've ridden. Awesome handling and performance and lends itself perfectly for customising (a daddy Iron in that respect). You asked for feedback on this bike soooo... ...it's not what I'd choose, I like chunky apes, mid controls, FX style chopper looks and tall ass skinny sissy bars none of which this bike offers; but then that's kind of the point, we all like different and that's why each bike reflects it's rider, (although I do like the wheels massively). So it's important to find a base bike to create your own style from and like I said, the FXBB is definitely up for it. It's always great to watch and listen to someone who just loves bikes, loves to ride and doesn't care what anyone thinks, so I enjoyed this video. Great channel keep it up and all the best.
Thanks Mark for sharing with us this build. The bike itself with all the mods is great. However this colour was a bit of a surprise. Not something I will choose for HD. But hey, it might grow with the bike with time. Another great review.
Wow I'm in shock totally not expecting that transformation .Must say looks fantastic .will look even better when the rear fender is altered always looks to high to me.Cheers Mark great vlog 👍
Great looking bike! I'm with you regarding the bars, mini apes on this bike would look awesome or even some tall z bars. Can't wait to see what you do with the fender.
LOL "it's loud, it's proud, it's out there," I think you just described a gay motorbike. It's for sure different, I like it but think I'd get tired of it real quick but to each his own. It does sound really good!!
Fourth time watching this video, and your bike is growing on me. I do prefer the original wheels, especially those on the 2020 Softail Standard (which is why I ordered one), and thanks to your advice, I ordered my bike with forward controls. Keeping the mini-apes now that I see the Sportster look. The great thing about UA-cam is that you get to see what others do, and see what you like, and don't like ! I'm looking at painting mine Aqua Blue Metallic... Question : is there is Part 4 to this customisation ? (Changed my vote from a thumbs down to a thumbs UP !)
was going to wait till the end of the video to say that personally i would change rear guard, seat and definatly the indicators...... and then you said the same..... apart from that, spot on ;-)
Nice one mate, TBR pipes are the way to go! Gotta say those bars are not my cup of tea, or that green. That said you’re right, loud and proud 🤘Please chop that rear 🙏 will look much better👊
Dave Bavister you are right Ive just seen it 😂. Didn’t have a clue they were putting it up for sale right now 😂... Oh well sportster customisation next ( and it’s my own bike ).
I like the all blacked out look but also like loud and proud colours, so I quite like the green, but please tell me you are going to get rid of those horrible rubber fork gaitors, I think they ruin the line of the forks, but apart from that keep up the good work
I reckon the colour would grow one you, the mini apes would be a good addition. Is there a tail light on it, couldn't see it if there was. Is it a 107 or 114, lovely sound from it 👍👍😎
9:15 Mark, you talk of the same topping on a pizza with the V and H. Only then to say TBR! THAT RIGHT THERE is the MAIN topping on the pizza. Go for the Bassani Road Rage III for quality and sound.
I still can't come to terms with the profile/shape of the fuel tank on the new Street Bobs. If you're going for a small tank I much prefer the sportster style.
Not gonna lie, I'm not crazy about a lot of things on this bike. The paint is not for me at all, nor is the V&H Short shots either. But that's OK! Variety is the spice of life my friends! Keep up the good work Mark!
I’m not a huge fan of that bike to begin with. However, I do love to see how people customize their bikes. That being said, I dig the style of the outcome. Looks like the Hulk.
I think it looks awsome, specialy the wheels, The colour is a bit Kwak but it does work, 'kind of' lol.. pumpkin orange and a bit of custom spray on the tank ' like a pumpkin lantern, edit: "Jacko lantern" would have been killer at a show, this time of year lol' Can't the rear fender drop an inch and then turn clockwise the radius of the wheel, so its bottom edge is level with the bottom edge of the right side plate, ,, giving moor dimension to the rear wheel, (sos clear as mud)
The new Street Bob looks like a Sportster to me they should have kept that square battery box it went with the lines of the bike. Also you got to do yourself a favor and cut those little booties off your front shocks looks terrible. Looks like you got a quality paint job too bad it's lime green. Wheels look damn nice though
Saw the thumbnail titlle: "Street Bob cutom series part 3" in hi-viz lurid dayglo, chunderous green. Had to see part 3, if only to hold down some revulsion for the color scheme.
That's awsome that the blockheads are coming to the UK would love to come down in March from Scotland to meet you guys and rent a bike and go ride with you aswell. Definitely need to get block head on some nice country roads with nice twistys and scenery as he only see's the city in Florida
A Harley should not look like a plastic sport bike.. Maybe add some flame graphics to the paint and bring back the ape handle bars and maybe it will look manly again..
I'm not a fan of black on black as I think that's been done to death. But I think that green on the tank and fenders is a bit much. Also, when will HD do something about those rear fenders? Ruins the shape of the bikes.
First impressin = Kawasaki dirt bike. Its a nice colour but there's too much of it. Given that the bike is mostly blacked-out, the green sticks out too far in contrast. But it aint my bike so it doesn;t matter what I think of it.
So sad the spoked wheels are gone. They were old school. The colour is ummmmm. . . . . . . . . and then the bars. The bars I might try and live with. Nope!!!! I'd sell the bike
Definitely not a fan of the colour but each to their own! That god awful seat needs to go. But that Streetbob rear fender is just naff! Peace and love from Down Under.
Wow, and not in a good way. Was Xzibit the project manager?
My mother once told me that if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. So I'll remain silent.
John McDowall lol 😂
Boring Old_Fart
I second that, i did like the "apes" and the original paint, the forward controls and the pipes. I will say no more.
Just got a street bob 2018 yesterday !! Appreciate the enthusiasm and guidance.

That's one way to really make the bike your own bro. Badass for you bro. Keeping making it whatever you want
No to colour, no to the bars. It looks a 90's sportster.
Ya can't watch a nice bike being defaced with that paint job, wtf ?
2Lane Blacktop that’s the beauty of custom
@@Motonewbrider Yeah not my cup of Tea......but it aint my bike either. I does look cool.
Really enjoyed the custom series cheers from Oz 🍻
I'm a simple man..you mention Blockhead...I hit subscribe. crazy color choice also
Harley Street Bob and Harley Fat bob are the two bikes in softail range that are built for customization. Awesome wheels, the colour very brave yet very cool. Dare to be different is what Roland Sands is all about anyway. Nice work.

Elie Tarazi they’ve got a Lowrider demo on order so I’ll definitely do a review
You are a champion thankyou brother.
im drooling all over it..its magnificent mark. i live in Kenya Africa and i sure hope i will afford a bike one time in my life. cheers mate keep posting the good vids
I hope you can as well fella. Sending loads of best wishes to you in Kenya 🇰🇪 ✊
@@Motonewbrider thanks mark i appreciate mate
Omg this is awsome!!!i love roland sands to. So cool love it
Those wheels look SICK!

Just love these blogs and bikes and I ride a MV Agusta, keep it up Mark.
Nick Base thanks Nick 👍
Thanks Mark for sharing with us this build. The bike itself with all the mods is great. However this colour was a bit of a surprise. Not something I will choose for HD. But hey, it might grow with the bike with time. Another great review.
I love the high visibility “hi-lighter” color. Could you list the teacher bar PN abs which riser you used? That’s exactly how I want mine to look.
Love the bike style.. sounds great ..are the baffles removed?
Wow I'm in shock totally not expecting that transformation .Must say looks fantastic .will look even better when the rear fender is altered always looks to high to me.Cheers Mark great vlog 👍
Steven Edwards appreciate you following the journey.
Motonewbrider .The eyebrow lift is classic .😂😂

I think the green is spot on.
Thanks Mark, it's a nice platform the Street Bob, allows you a lot of latitude as regards customisation 👍👍😎
Awesome!!!Who cares what anybody thinks,as long as you like it.
Ed Korn exactly...
Fantastic bike. Love the handlebar. Can you please teel me brand and type ? Thanks
Color is rad , love it!!
looks superb, love it.
Amazing bike 👏🏻👌🏻, which size it’s wheels and what is the handlebar? regards from Brazil...
It does remind me of a big Sportster and maybe that’s why I like it. The color is great for visibility.
Dan Bailey you can’t miss t that’s for sure
Definitely looks like a big Sportster.

Question : is there is Part 4 to this customisation ?
(Changed my vote from a thumbs down to a thumbs UP !)
From the video I thought it was a work in progress but it looks to be up for sale now...
I like it, but do you know what they say about the color green? It's Bad juju.....
was going to wait till the end of the video to say that personally i would change rear guard, seat and definatly the indicators...... and then you said the same..... apart from that, spot on ;-)
I’ve been wanting to change my wheels to cast wheels. Are those Roland sands wheels? Are they exact fit? And how much are they? Thanks
William Hyland they are a straight for buddy. Not sure on the cost and wouldn’t like to guess - I’ll come back to you on this when I find out
Nice one mate, TBR pipes are the way to go! Gotta say those bars are not my cup of tea, or that green. That said you’re right, loud and proud 🤘Please chop that rear 🙏 will look much better👊
This looks great
Hi Mark,
Just to say guys the colour in real life is pretty cool, was good to see ya mate,
Lee (no springs) Baker 😉
Is the rear wheel 18" or smaller?
What kind of bars are those?
It’s on eBay!!! I take that to be a sign of your fondness for it?
Dave Bavister lol no it’s not
Motonewbrider Gosh don’t tell me there are two!!
Dave Bavister you are right Ive just seen it 😂. Didn’t have a clue they were putting it up for sale right now 😂... Oh well sportster customisation next ( and it’s my own bike ).

Geoff Oz Evans 107 Geoff on all street bobs mate
Love the rims. dont like the bar in chrome! last week I drove the Fat bob and the sport glide 2018/9, cant choose :-)
aCoolBreez3 lol that’s the fun part! Working out which ones the best for you 👍
9:15 Mark, you talk of the same topping on a pizza with the V and H. Only then to say TBR! THAT RIGHT THERE is the MAIN topping on the pizza. Go for the
Bassani Road Rage III for quality and sound.
andrew dreyer I haven’t seen any in the UK 🇬🇧 for both. However I’ve heard good stuff on the TBR and Bassini pipes.
Who's is the stanced white Volvo 240 estate that I keep seeing in the background in the car park??😂
Not a fan of the color and it does need the mini apes, but that's just my preference
Where did you get the wheels
I still can't come to terms with the profile/shape of the fuel tank on the new Street Bobs. If you're going for a small tank I much prefer the sportster style.
I like the color " hope they get the forwards out soon it's the one thing I want to do
I love that Tracker bar
Needs a rear fender for sure and tall bars! Cool looking bike though!
Kyle Frye once the rear fender is sorted out and the seat it will complete the bike
Not gonna lie, I'm not crazy about a lot of things on this bike. The paint is not for me at all, nor is the V&H Short shots either. But that's OK! Variety is the spice of life my friends! Keep up the good work Mark!
Jonathan Kennedy cheers fella
Is the left hand grip twisted? Lol
Daniel Applen yeah I did notice as well.
Performance Machine Wheel, Dixon cut...his dads company.
Where is part 4 ???
I like the color , I would not choice it but I like it . . . might even help be seen at night
I’m not a huge fan of that bike to begin with. However, I do love to see how people customize their bikes. That being said, I dig the style of the outcome. Looks like the Hulk.
Brandon White 👍
what you going to call it the flying lemon
Finally, someone that doesn't "club style" the shit out of a Harley
Nice but get some tiny led indicators on it to round it off
tattooedbill1 totally 👍
I think it looks awsome,
specialy the wheels,
The colour is a bit Kwak but it does work, 'kind of' lol.. pumpkin orange and a bit of custom spray on the tank ' like a pumpkin lantern, edit: "Jacko lantern" would have been killer at a show, this time of year lol'
Can't the rear fender drop an inch and then turn clockwise the radius of the wheel, so its bottom edge is level with the bottom edge of the right side plate, ,, giving moor dimension to the rear wheel, (sos clear as mud)
davemaxx i could of dressed up in a witches 🧙♀️ outfit and broom if we went that colour 👍
I do love that type of pastel paint,
The standard stuff gets a bit munisable rather than "industrial"
The new Street Bob looks like a Sportster to me they should have kept that square battery box it went with the lines of the bike. Also you got to do yourself a favor and cut those little booties off your front shocks looks terrible. Looks like you got a quality paint job too bad it's lime green. Wheels look damn nice though
Mister Grey yeah the wheels are super nice in the flesh
Came for the fatboy pov.. Stayed for the #twistit#hardrider😉..

Gurdit Singh nice one 👌👍
that bikes gonna take some fixing...
Michael Lang lol
Saw the thumbnail titlle: "Street Bob cutom series part 3" in hi-viz lurid dayglo, chunderous green. Had to see part 3, if only to hold down some revulsion for the color scheme.
Well I mean the wheels are ok and the exhaust is cool
Shame they stole the custom job away from you dude! I was looking forward to seeing what route it went in the end
That's awsome that the blockheads are coming to the UK would love to come down in March from Scotland to meet you guys and rent a bike and go ride with you aswell. Definitely need to get block head on some nice country roads with nice twistys and scenery as he only see's the city in Florida
HD rider jamieboyy89 he’ll love the uk for riding.
@@Motonewbrider yeah definitely beats city riding anyway

The exhaust note is 🍆🗯
And don’t forget to change the colour
Don’t think there was a we in this build it’s what somebody else wants not you think what you would like has been taken away my thoughts only
lol, this is what I’m working with buddy.
I’ve always heard green is a bad luck color
Kawasaki lime green?
Man... I’m a bit color blind, but on the bright side, even I can see that...
Stanley Graham lol
Oh dear!!!!!!
I like everything but the color., I love green but not that one lol
David Rhodes lol
Not sure if I would ride her on the daily. I would more use her as a showbike. Just my opinion 😕
Jeremy Jackson I’d paint it matte black and use it.
Hmmm... kinda looks like a Lowrider!
Love the wheels but not the bars or color.
Different, the whole thing is loud. Lol good to see Different
Wow the paint job is horrendous to say the least!! Love the video content though!!
First impressin = Kawasaki dirt bike.
Its a nice colour but there's too much of it.
Given that the bike is mostly blacked-out, the green sticks out too far in contrast.
But it aint my bike so it doesn;t matter what I think of it.
please change that colour
It’s not to my taste, but it’s a nice looking cycle! I’m into more of a ratty home made look.
Love the wheels but the Kawasaki green paint job REALLY!!! get real mate.
Custom part 2 the Street Bob was great. Now Horrible. Less is more.
So its a "Bolt On Personalisation" series rather than customisation then. Come on do something radical.
crewgadjy next part 👍
I guess this series died?
So sad the spoked wheels are gone. They were old school. The colour is ummmmm. . . . . . . . . and then the bars. The bars I might try and live with. Nope!!!! I'd sell the bike
I like the color,but the one inch bars look cheap!
one word to take your video's to the next level " GIMBAL" your intro shakes so mutch that it can make people sick
DWEAZEL having a look for one at the moment. Rather buy a hero 7 though first 👍
Definitely not a fan of the colour but each to their own!
That god awful seat needs to go.
But that Streetbob rear fender is just naff!
Peace and love from Down Under.
Paul Kilmister yeah needs a lot more work
Change it back!
looks like a Kawasaki kx 250 now paint it black again
👍 from me
Thumb down for being too tall suspension and weird colour
Timothy Rinaldi I’ll give ya a thumbs up 👍
Ooh no!
justine overton ooooooooh YES 😂
You kind of look like Aaron Rodgers
Can’t see the point
