As a young dude that has just gotten into the idea of getting a harley, this video has been more helpful to me than anything else so far. Appreciate how thorough and honest your reviews were!

I'm a fairly new rider. One year plus on the road. Having absolutely no motorcycle experience with motorcycles i took the Harley MSF course. Shortly after that I was hell bent on buying a Sportster. I ended up getting a iron 883. Loved it for the first summer. However im finding out that after riding for a while I am getting bored with the iron and want more horsepower. I consider myself a very cautious level headed guy. But I now regret buying the Sportster and wished I would have went straight to the soft tail line

Very good video for not just new riders but even valid for riders looking for their second bike. Be honest with yourself, your desires of usage, and your needs. Don’t follow any current fads or trends for popularity seeking approval from others that truly could care less about you. “Your Decisions will determine the outcome of your rider experience through the path we call life.”

This is great.. honest, direct guidance about how to pick your first Harley. I love the "don't worry about what other people, get what fits YOU" message that's repeated throughout. Thank you for publishing this!

Just entitled into a FMS class. First time rider, never rode clutch (only cars) and I'm so thrilled! Can't wait to learn all the tricks and buy my first bike. This video is helpful thanks!

Buy an late model bike for as cheap as possible. Ride it for 3,000 miles then trade it in for the bike you want. You’ll learn everything you are looking for from a bike in that period and won’t end up belly up on a loan and when you drop it, you will it won’t hurt as much.

Yep, get all your scars and dents on a cheaper bike. All dealers will sell you 12000 dollar sporty as a 1st bike because they sell bikes.

@Tribelokoyes a Honda shadow. Dependable and you won't outgrow it in a month. You can get on one at a good price.

@Tribeloko depending on what you are looking for. Never go wrong with the Honda shadow route. Honestly buy a 125CC dirt bike go play off road and learn there.

I really think harley should re-introduce their street 500-750 series. From what ive seen it seems like the absolute best starter bike and will help keep new buyers/considerers like myself interested

I just like hearing & seeing what's going on at the Las Vegas HD dealership. Would like a few more details on each bike, but all good!

I'm in my 50s, retired, 6'3" 215 to 220 or so. What would you think about the Heritage for someone like me as a beginner?

Big question, I'm gonna be a first rider. And I'm thinking that I want a bigger bike, because I'm 6 ft 205 pounds, and feel the Sportster ain't big enough. I'm looking for maybe a Fatboy, because I also want to make long rides on my motorcycle. Do you recommend the Fatboy?

I’m 6ft 230… I bought the iron 883 deadwood green, already customized and loud. It fits me perfectly. I have never rode a motorcycle in my life and this thing is plenty of fun. I had to listen to a rider who has experience to get the perfect shift. If I hit second just right the front end will pop up. It’s heavy but prefect for the corners with someone who has never taken a corner. Plus you can customize the crap out of it

Unless your really up there in weight and 6ft I would recommend a bigger motor, but your fine to have a lifetime of fun on a sportster. At 6ft even, I got forward controls and show off my beauty every chance I get.

So a Dyna Soft tail, is that a good beginner bike?
