oh no..first Her Two Wheels now MotoBlonde the infection is spreading lol

[@MotoBlonde]

😂

[@MrTraewilliams]

Go test ride the Road King Special that is the bike for you and learn how to love the heal shiftier. Love the channel

[@briandickter2724]

And, for an even better heel shifter experience, install the $39.95 shorty heel shifter peg from Thrashin Supply Co. I heel shift mine 90% of the time with the arch of my foot in instead of the heel of my boot. Then you don’t need to reach all the way forward to operate the toe shifter all of the time.

[@sharkdog111]

Agreed.

[@lutgartvankollenburg5202]

I surely miss the heel shifter on my current bike.

[@RB-tx4mn]

That's what I did. Test rode the RKS and fell in love, traded my '20 Low Rider S in on it.

[@briandickter2724]

@@RB-tx4mn Love the RKS as well. But the stock suspension has got to go! Do you have any aftermarket suspension upgrades on your RKS? One of my favorite rear shocks is RS-1 from Russ Wernimont Designs.

I’m a short dude with a Road Glide ST! I’m 5’6 and ride a 22 RG ST and have dealt with this for a bit! You definitely got it! I’ll have to make a video on my channel for us short kings haha! Great video! Loved it!

[@scott_0492]

moving from a Wide Glide to a Street Glide is the best move I’ve ever made! you look natural on that RG! I am short as well, at 5’ 8” if I wear Vans when I ride, lol it’s a challenge backing out of inclines, you just have to be careful when coming to stops, these big touring monsters will fold up on you if you grab too much brake with the bars turned.

[@Titanium_larry]

I don’t care what you do, but whatever it is just keep laughing. You have the cutest giggle 😆😘😘

I’m a lil guy and ride a 2011 Streetglide Just did a 2400 mile trip to Maryland 62000 plus miles on it now Love the touring models

[@generichards6497]

Harley's have a lot of great bikes to ride but...... so do others Indian for example or Honda if you don't mind a bike built else where. LOL I have a 2014 Victory Vision ( the other American motorcycle that they don't make any more and a 2003 Harley Vrod that they don't make any more ) Lol ones for fun and the other is for cruising and what a difference between the two. What ever you ride have fun and stay safe out there.

Try a Heritage Classic.

[@xcoverx2525]

Agreed! We only live once .

[@herbolmstead5938]

Love my Roadglide and being 5’6” I understand the height thing. You’re just going to have to think about things a little more. Like when you pull into someplace take a look and park in the easiest way to get out. Better to walk a little further than struggle backing out of someplace. I mean the real answer is two bikes but if you can only have one, Roadglide is definitely worth the extra little struggles

[@MotoBlonde]

I like the real answer best haha!! Thanks for watching!

[@ChaseJasperDown]

That’s such a nice bike for sure. It should be considering the price! Lol!

[@raymondladue1140]

I think a street glide would be perfect for your height. Besides girls look hot on the street glide all blacked out

[@thanosetsitty1896]

First it was queen sit, than its her two wheels, and now you. Happy for you gals loving the Harley’s. I always said chicks dig the road glide more than the street glide.

[@TheBlueBikeDoyle]

You need a road glide With the Roadglide you learn to read to parking lot quick so kno to back or pull in

[@marka2510]

Hi Heather, I am 5'6", 145 lbs, 68 years old, with a 29" inseam. I am on my 3rd bagger since 2001, a 2014 Street Glide Special. On all 3 bikes I put a 1" lowering kit on the rear. It makes it much easier for the slow speed and parking. I am flat footed with a bend in my knee when at a stop. It's not just a touring bike, I ride it every day in the city and it's fine. There a tons of used rushmore bikes both Street Glides and Road Glides. If you want to keep the FXLRS find a nice used one. I prefer the SGS because the fairing is a lot closer so I would at least ride a SGS before you decide. Best of luck to you.

[@MotoBlonde]

Definitely going to try a few first - thanks for the advice!

[@rainman1356]

And first thumbs up

[@tonymarin2314]

Try the Heritage you may like it.

[@billofalltrades2633]

Hahahaha love the video, go for it! The street glide low I think.

[@harleyguy3494]

Test ride a Road King Special. You will love it!

[@philspain59]

I think a Heritage would be a better fit for your size. A little bit lighter that a Road Glide but still a bagger.

[@kennethcalimpong7919]

Liked & Subscribed, great Vlog, you are so inspiring & fearless. Road Glides are so worth the little challenges, ride safe, look forward to all your content, Aloha from Hawaii, Kenneth

[@MotoBlonde]

Thank you!

[@RB-tx4mn]

You're screwed. LoL. I had a 2020 Low Rider S, barracuda silver, for 51 weeks. lol I test rode a Road King Special and was like uh, this blows my LRS out of the water. So, I traded the LRS in on a '21 RKS. That was July 3rd. I now have 5k miles on the RKS after going to South Dakota and back from Indiana. I loved the LRS but there's just no comparison to a touring bike.

[@MotoBlonde]

Awesome, enjoy!! Its definitely a different animal!

[@fleggrat1974]

Bagger`s are cool but I will keep my Lowrider s

[@eric9432]

If you like the roadglide you should give the Indian Challenger a try. I was looking at a road glide until I took the Indian for a spin. 100% a better bike in just every way. Now the road glide just feels silly.

[@misterpogi1352]

They are comfy bikes. If you get one get a reach seat.

[@pelosishammer]

Maybe if you wear platform boots, you might be able to back the road glide up. LOL!! I saw a video earlier of a guy who had to jump off his bike to hold it up at a traffic light because he was too short to remain seated and do it. LOL!!

[@MotoBlonde]

I've seen that one too lol!!!

[@jeffrice7179]

It’s road glide time. Or street glide would work too

Anthony said the same thing about the Road Glide! I definitely want to test them, but I don’t think it will sway me!

[@alanward9660]

@@MotoBlonde it’s always smart to test everything before deciding on one. In January I was dead set on buying another streetglide but at the suggestion of several friends, I first test rode the Roadglide. I didn’t want to like it but I had to be honest and say that after I did, I felt that it was a better handling bike due to the fixed fairing. The rest is history….lol

Definitely. We had been here before and it wasn't really and incline but the gravel got me and my stumpy legs 🤣

[@lutgartvankollenburg5202]

If I lived in the US I would test ride one. In my country, the Netherlands where parking space is hard to find and with traffic lights every mile, and me being only 5 ft (I can’t even lift the kickstand of my husband’s Fatboy) it is not wise to ride such a big heavy bike. Damned I was born in the wrong country!

You should check out the sport guide it's an awesome bike and about the same as what you're writing only with bags and a Fairing that are all quick detach

[@carlbruhn1772]

It all depends on your type of riding. The desire to roll a bagger diminishes quickly in curvy roads and adventurous riding at speed with tight Twisties. Everyone should try it if you can afford it and make a decision. Personally they are not for me.

[@usmc200971]

She started talking about putting a lowering kit on his bike and he said we’re pulling over here 😂😂😂

@@MotoBlonde you lower it when you know you have to put your feet down and then you raise it up for the highway and it is very smooth. I love it!! You should check into it. They are great people at Legends.

[@briandickter2724]

Zippers Performance sells the Thundermax iRide adjustable air suspension. It has the automatic stoplight adjustment feature similar to the new suspension on the H-D Pan America. The quickest and cheapest solution would be a set of RWD or Legends 12” rear shocks that would still give you a great ride with decent suspension travel. A lot of KZbin superstars seem to get vendor sponsors for their performance upgrades that prompt us civilians to buy our motorcycle parts after watching the KZbinr reviews.

[@MotoBlonde]

[@bikerbrinrac]

Yay that's awesome you got the road glide for a spin 🏍️🔥👍 I can see u upgrading to one of those down the track 😀 Yep you need to make sure you always back it in when parking so you can ride it out due to the weight. Ps be hard to get back on your bike. The water view at lunch was great 🖼️
