Thanks for the vid, it's always nice to see 'my' bike featured. I have a 2020 Lowrider S (in black) sitting in my UK dealer waiting my return to UK July this year. Meanwhile we're fitting the 131ci engine, heavy duty clutch, sundowner seat, pillion pegs and a few other cosmetic changes. Nice to see I'm not 'out of date' before I swing a leg over it. Not that that really matters, this bike is, for me, a 'lifer'.

@@GODSWORD11 To be honest, there are very few cons with the Fat Bob. Maybe the two things I'd mention if I'm getting picky, the stock tyres are not great and sometimes in a sharp corner it wants to stand up a little but not in a big way. The other thing which is a personal preference I'd prefer the speedo on the handle bars as opposed to the tank. These are small things and can be fixed if you really want to.

@@jaredwehr1431 if you are going to put forward s on then it’s the probability buying the wrong bike as that setup negates the sporty capabilities ... I have a heritage OEM shock on mine and it raises the back of the bike maybe an inch...you steer the bike with your but cheeks as apposed to most other Harleys... it’s a great handling bike. I would recommend putting bung king highway crash bars instead if you are looking for that forward feel. It is more in keeping with the So Cal Club style bike that this bike is.

Went from a dyna fat bob to a Softail street bob to a low rider s. I loved my ugly fat bob. The street bob was an improvement. The fxlrs has everything the street bob was missing. Harley out did themselves with the new low rider s. They packed in that much performance and technology without loosing the Harley feel. It handles like a heavy sport bike.

I bought a Low Rider S as my first bike so I'll answer honestly as I only ever rode 250cc bike in the MSF course. Is it possible for a beginner to ride this and be ok? Yes. Is it the most sensible? No. Ideally, I wanted to start on something smaller to increase my skill quickly and then upgrade, but the financial impact of that just makes it a pain in the ass, you'll essentially be losing out a few thousand when you trade the sportster back in for a FXLRS in 6 months. I just decided to risk it and i'm happy I did. Matt and Nick are so experienced they probably don't know what trips up beginners with this so i'll say it: slow speed maneuvers. The first day I picked it up was 25 miles north of Austin, in the pissing rain, on roads I didn't know with no GPS. Definitely felt some adversity but the bike handled amazing and I made it home despite flooding conditions which is a riders nightmare. I learned the friction zone and throttle have to be mastered quickly. That might seem basic to people that have ridden before but a 250cc bike is 100 times more forgiving to clumsy inputs, something which new riders, including me will make. The FXLRS pulls like a train in 1st gear and a few times at the start it will pull you out of a lean and straighten you up easily running you wide, you have to beware with that. The clutch comes on strong at the end and so use smooth, light inputs with minimal throttle until you are used to how it takes off. I went to a parking lot with no one around and just rode around practicing the turns. The handling and the breaks are great, and at high speeds it feels like a dream. That said, you have to respect the machine, go easy and learn what its capable of because as well as learning the bike, you are learning situational awareness and the behavior of other riders on the road. Turns come up quick, cars behind you come up quick, gravel and inclines come up quick, and if you live in a 4 story parking lot you are going to need to learn the friction zone with rear break turning up inclines, then slowing the bike down enough on a turn coming back down. Just things you don't think about until you face them and being on a 650lb bike you can't muscle yourself out of a mistake like a light bike. Overall, the bike is amazing and I would have bought one from these guys had I still been in LA, just be careful until you learn how to ride it. Don't bother with a sportster if you are willing to to be conservative, practice and ride outside of peak hours to get better. Put crash bars on to put your mind at ease. Sorry for the long winded post but as someone who spent forever deciding on whether to get this bike as a newer rider I hope to help those that are feeling the same way.

Sir I have taken exception to your remarks about the 88 twin cam. At the time the 88 was a big step up from the EVO power. Now with a stage one and a good aftermarket exhaust power improves just like all Harleys. If you go to a stage 2 with a good cam the 88 tc steps up power to a very respectful level. If you go to a big bore kit 95 the twin cam becomes a beast. It's short stroke makes rpms much quicker. It almost turns the 88 twin cam into a drag racer. I like the M8 but of all the twin cam motors I like the 88 best bang for the buck.

Yes sir Matt, I’m pulling the trigger before they change or cancel anything else. Thanks for the video review with all of the detailed pros/cons. I would have not thought to swap the Heritage rear shock in it and would have most likely paid much more for the aftermarket.

Mike Laidlaw, I’m happy yoy keep trying to promote the Fatbob. The Low Rider S is a sweet bike and rides dang good. But having also test rode a Fatbob, it haunts my dreams with how easy it is to tip into a turn, how the fat front tire gobbles the tar snakes and how intuitive it is to ride. In my humble opinion, the Low Rider S is great, but the Fatbob is better and criminally under appreciated.

Good informative video, a tad long but good. I think this bike would make an excellent platform for an updated FXDXT which was a real riders motorcycle for those that didn't want the heft a touring bike but still needed functionality. Also although the gauges look great on the tank mounting them behind the nacelle would really by much more functional and I think is one of the number one complaints of this bike. I also find it funny that this bike only has 30 degrees of cornering clearance meanwhile back in 2001 my FXDX had 34.5. The problem is what makes a good bike and a bike that sells are totally different. Since you seem really dedicated to the brand maybe you could pass some suggestions along to the higher ups. Thanks

gorgeous bike for sure, i'm coming off a 13' Kawasaki Versys 650 which I LOVED but was looking for something more comfortable with more power, I sat on one of these down at Daytona Bike Week this year and it felt SO good on me (I'm 5'11") I knew it would be my next bike, deposit is down and hoping to have it by mid-August, got the Black as I hate the color Maroon haha Super excited! Great review, I like the honesty and it was done very well!

On point, both of you. All legitimate reasons and another great overview on the Low Rider S. Love it! Coming from a sport bike that would be my choice for sure. If they would ONLY have it in Denim Black:) But, vivid black its good enough. Awesomeness

I've had a Sporty for 6 months and I'm already looking at a Softtail. I love my Sporty but having more comfort, 6 gears, and something bigger would be nice. I can't decide on which Softail I like the best. Very tough decision.

Hey Matt, excellent video. I've a Fat Bob 2019. Are any of the larger gas tanks in the Softail or Touring range, i.e. larger than the Bob's, able to be fitted on to the Bob?

My favorite Harley just looking at it. I test rode one and damn it was uncomfortable for me. I’m thinking forward controls and a seat putting me in a bit of a different position would fix it.

You failed to mention a major reason a lot of us stick with the Dyna: the Twin Cam makes power differently than the Milwaukee 8. The Twin Cam makes more low end torque with more noise and rumble. It feels more like a Harley. So while the new softails perform slightly better, the Dynas still feel better.

You do a great job with all your videos. I was torn between the LRS and Fat Bob. Ended up with the FB, but sometimes regret the decision! The Fat Bob is an awesome bike, but the 3.6 gallon tank is an issue! Thanks for sharing!

I just bought one hours ago,, and rode it 40 miles home in a downpour. Handled real nice in a monsoon up here in the pnw. Went back to get my truck and there were accidents everywhere,, fatal outcomes at that.

Thanks for the video. I watched beginning to end. Very informative. If I can rewind back time, I shoud've gotten the LRS but instead I bought the Sportster Forty-Eight (which is also a very good bike).

Not many people talk about the sport glide I believe it's one of the most versatile bikes imo. You can ride it with bags and fairing or strip it down in 2 mins and have that raw stripped down look. The sport glide should have had the 114 option though

Does Harley use a triple clamp with a different design in order to tighten the rake or is really in the frame?

Does the Low Rider S have a larger fuel tank than the Fat Bob? I hate pushing a bike or deal with range anxiety.

I love everything about the Low Rider S, how would it do on a round trip (close to 1000 miles) I live in Oroville, CA. 2 hrs past Sacramento. With a few upgrades saddlemen seat and cruise control? The other bike I love is the new Sport Glide.

There are two HD's I'd have in the UK. The Lowrider S and the FatBob, both with forward pegs. This is a mixture of our narrow twisty roads suiting the steeper rake and my 6'5" (196cm) frame needing the leg room. I really love the idea of all that down low power though. Also that midnight crimson is stunning, the red Fatbob is nice but this is on another level.
