Harley Davidson Low Rider ST 1000 mile review

After completing a 1000 miles on my Low rider ST, I'll be giving you my long term impression on this bike, good and bad, along with my plans to customise my ride.

Nice review Great looking machine and sounds great. I will follow your upgrades with interest. 👍

[@sweetrides8418]

Awesome, thank you!

[@paulsilson2148]

That's why I got my sport glide, nice and light, clubbed it out , stage 2 , screaming eagle, bassani road rage 3 , tuner , what a beast

[@sweetrides8418]

Nice 👍 yeah the sport glide is serious value for money, especially if you’re looking to customise. Thanks for watching 👀

Beautiful bike, I’d love to have another Harley. I can deal with all the things that are normal for an HD (buying an expensive bike that often needs some expensive upgrades to make it comfortable) except for lean angle. Just looking at my rides this past weekend I’m constantly upper 30s into the mid 40 degrees lean angle and I wasn’t riding aggressively. But, the bike is gorgeous and sounds awesome. I’ll still be watching though as I enjoy the content.

Hi Paul, thanks for watching, yeah I do with Harley would make a more “normal” bike sometimes, this one handles well but ground clearance can be an issue.

Really enjoyed this. Love this bike and this color scheme in particular. I appreciated your real-world discussion of the HP/TQ and how it applies to the real world. Who made your phone mount? Also are your quoted 104HP figures for the standard ST or the Fast Johnnie? I was under the impression that the Fast Johnnie got some upgraded go-fast bits? Is that not correct?

Hi Jeff, glad you enjoyed it. I’ve already done a video on the mount kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXqpmmmcjNh_f9Usi=rsC-nbGFV2piVoLJ

Hi , great review! I've had a road glide and am now looking for something lighter and see the LRST as a good option. My only concern is that at 6.0' tall will I feel comfortable on the bike. Can i ask your height and apart from the risers you mention are you comfortable on it? Thanks. Gareth

[@sweetrides8418]

Hi Gareth, I think at 6 ft you might want to look at the forward controls, I’m 5’10 and have just had the risers fitted, they have helped but I am still considering the forwards. Thanks for watching and your comments 👍

[@azadr9231]

Awesome video. Why the LA Choppers risers and not the Thrashin Supply ones like many other people? Arr, they good quality?

[@sweetrides8418]

Hi Azad, my local dealer had a set on another bike, I tried them and felt like a perfect fit, quality was good too. Thanks for watching, bar video and stage two on the way 👍

[@azadr9231]

@sweetrides8418 can't wait for those videos. The bike is awesome. It's going to be my next bike after I get off my LAMS here in Australia (A2 equivalent).

i have a 21 harley ultra with stage 2 its comfortable for sure with me and passenger but for a touring bike i do not travel far at all. pretty much ride around town and 100 mile trip days. only time i take long trip which is to the mountains which is 200 mile one way. So would this bike work for passenger?

[@sweetrides8418]

@@CodyMcDonald89 yes, I’ve just been to the TT with a passenger and luggage, 600 mile round trip, no problems 👍

[@TFBlack-ix2cs]

What phone mount are you using if you don’t mind?

[@sweetrides8418]

See my previous video kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2mveX1qrKuDr9Esi=FzSE1ilg8wV99BHM

@@sweetrides8418 thank you

[@jeffshootsstuff]

Also FWIW the heavy metal music overlay was unnecessary and distracting. Just let us hear the engine :)

[@sweetrides8418]

Hi Jeff😅, always a tough one with music, some people love it, some hate it, but I’ll take your comments on board, maybe even try one without and see how it goes 👍
