The RDRS is legit. I was on my 2021 Road Glide Special on a country road one morning. The road was wet from rain the night before. As I came out of a turn there was an intersection in front of me. A service van rode up to the intersection and blew right past his stop sign and directly into my lane. I had to break to avoid hitting him and I felt the back of the bike start to slide out from under me, but then it suddenly corrected, stopped sliding and resumed fully upright travel, all in a fraction of a second. I’m a believer.

WOW! Great to have those safety features, someone in commented that I should look into the cost of adding RDRS on thee Road King... I think I will for sure. Thanks for sharing!
@TEXecutioner8 ай бұрын
I have the same bike as you, but mine has the traction control and rider assist. Maybe you can check to see how much it would cost to have it installed. SO glad you decided to stay with your Road King. BEST bike ever. Thanks for the video Brother.

Thanks for the info! I will look into it. Unfortunately. back in 2021 was the supply chain issues and no idea when the one with RDRS for the RK.

I think the only time I rode through SF was with you actually and thank goodness we did not hit any crazy hills. But I agree, that hill assist would be more than assist it would a hill save and make the ride much better.

Great seeing you again Brother! I’m with you, waiting a couple of years till Harley gets rid of the bugs and recalls. We also don’t know how well that screen is going to hold out. If you have a warranty that’s one thing but afterwards, you will be paying some serious amount of money to repair, or even worse, replace!! I’m happy with my two Victory baggers. They might even be worth some money down the road! 😊

I also am considering trading in my 21 harley ultra in snake venom. But i have done stage 2, and some add ons for my bike and my bike already has the RDRS system. so i think i already have a killer bike minus the new screen but nothing really wrong with the old screen still plenty good size. so in conclusion i think you are thinking smart keeping the RK and just keep no payment and having that fun money. For me im just going to get me another seat and take my tour pack off to have a different style bike when i dont want the bulky tour pack on for me

Sounds like you have a really nice Ultra and have it setup the way you like it, plus snake venom... nice! Trading it is a tough decision but maybe wait since you have such a nice ride. Good problem to have ;)

@@kevincraig8257 the trade value is a very valid concern. The dealer I went to has a bunch 0f 23's sitting there and although not posted the dealer will need and work with people to move them at a discount. Best bet is see what you can get for it on the private market and someone that appreciates all the good things you have done and it is like a "turn key" motorcycle then you will get more. That may be obvious but that is where we are right now. I did not get a good offer but I ride a lot and been across the country, so a lot of miles. So the trade in price is good for the dealer as they need to do a service/safety inspection then try to have some kind of margin left over. Let's enjoy our rides until we can sell them direct or keep and add to the stable.

@@CageFreeMoto- love your openness for future videos! I’ve found that a great little 32-bit floating audio recorder blended in with the GoPro or action-camera helmet cam gives a great sound of the engine and exhaust…I’ve seen a few great content creators get crushed by viewers in the comments for adding in music over a ride & review video…but the music seems to work great behind a narrated video like @jakeridesaway in his Motorcycling Across America EP1 video really connects with a great soundtrack for a documentary feel.
