[@lsirhc]

those saddle bag part numbers are the same as the old ones

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Thanks brother ! You are correct ! I just compared and they are exactly the same part number. I guess you will have to go to your local HD dealer to figure that out because Harley official website is not up to date at this time !

[@seanross704]

Honestly, one of my favourite parts about the 23 Lowrider ST‘s. There’s not a bunch of gauge in your face.

[@ag4169]

Nicely done video Sandy, always enjoy your content. I rang the bell today!! Traded my 2023 Low Rider ST white w/ stage 2 for the 2025 ST in iron horse metallic. I had a great first time buying experience at Pikes Peak HD in C Springs👍, about 80 miles from home. The 2023 is an awesome bike; I wanted get away from the stage 2 for noise reduction when touring, and I like the new mods and colors. I basically worked the numbers over the phone this morning and headed to the dealership. I’m having it delivered in a couple weeks. In the meantime, I will repurposing my forward Heritage controls for the new bike (… if you know, you know😊;) and a few other take offs. I met some really nice people at the dealership today, and had a great day😀 Btw, big fan of the new Heritage as well, I have a 2019. Big thanks to you and John for keeping us informed👍

[@HOLYSHIFT]

That sounds like a great deal ! The 2025 model is really nice. I would do forward controls as well…. Good luck with bike and ride safe !

[@keglover-x4i]

Just found your chanel Sammy, Excellent job of showing the new 25,s . Nice close ups. Im with you, I like shinny bikes also. . My bike is an 07 Softail Deuce i bought new, black and chrome beauty, 96 ci, 6 speed. with stock pipes/mufflers. He is in showroom new condition. I cruise around here at Myrtle Beach SC. and get alot of nice comments. The Windvest 16" x 18" is positively the perfect wind shield for the Deuce. I love your 04 that u just bought. Oh yeah , I.ll be adding a new 25 black Breakout to my garage as soon as my dealer gets one in.

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Very cool ! I love the softail frame = nice, tight and nimble !

[@merlin5729]

Great first look Sandy, thanks!

[@stephanebrochu2627]

great comparison video Sandy !

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Glad you enjoyed it !

[@BeardedBavarianBiker]

Also, new heads, intake manifold. Engine crankcase breather system now vents from on top of the transmission cover to the back of the aircleaner. Head breathers have been deleted with the newly designed heads. New rear shock is now fitted with a non progressive spring. Adjustment for the rear shock has been put under the seat for all softail models. Also the cats are no longer in the mufflers, they are now in the headers.

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Didn’t even realize that! - thank you 🙏🏻

[@jorgecgonzalez9976]

they change the rear shock on all Softails and also gave it standard the RDRS system.

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Yes 👍🏻

[@Southern_Hogz]

Great video, Sandy! Now you've got me wanting that bike! 😄

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Oh boy 😂 . It is a nice bike !

[@joshlittle8457]

Important question! I know you have done the tour pack, and touring bags but will they fit together at the same time? The videos I see of you with your tour pack always has the clam shell bags. Thanks in advance, love the videos one of the best detailed I’ve seen on YT!

[@HOLYSHIFT]

They do fit all together

[@SilverFoxx1199]

Must have just miss you, was there at Noon.

[@mvandewijdeven]

Kind of feel a little let down having bought my 2024 LRST (Red Rock). Wish I knew all this was coming. Did the Stage 2 with Star 30/30 Racing Cam, SE airfilter, Jekyll & Hide 2-in-1 Exhaust, Forward Controls and a PowerJet tune, getting 134HP / 214NM torque over a stock 109? HP) And now in 2025, you get in 1 model year: way better colors, the better cockpit, the ride modes, improved controls on the steering bar, improved stock performance (about a 10HP increase from last year model), same size clamshells and led signal lights. For only a $1000 MSRP price gain

[@HOLYSHIFT]

True - but if we always wait for the next year we will probably never buy one … 😂

[@patmanwainwright3423]

@ Yours sounds nice tho and you can change the bag on the right side to the bigger bag now too. anyway have a good one.

[@FFL-vg9ro]

Also, the spring on the rear shock is now a straight-rate spring (all coils have the same spacing), instead of a progressive-rate spring.

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Didn’t even realize that. - thank you 🙏🏻

[@shanestaff6307]

@@FFL-vg9ro does that make it a better ride or ?

[@tangle60r]

I was looking for low riders quite a long time, I think it’s a signal for me to finally spend my money on

[@marathon1972]

Can the CEO of Harley get any credit yet?! I've always given him credit and don't listen to the haters. I don't think there has been a more progressive decade ever than this decade for Harley.

[@24james]

That’s actually a pretty fair comment. I’m not a fan of his….but the bikes Harley have been turning out under his stewardship are pretty awesome. Love my 2022 Street Bob. Looking at trading it in on a 2025…just can’t decide which one yet. There are so many great ones 💯🇺🇸🔥 🏍️

[@mojo4376]

No. No Credit.

[@Lee-cz7ht]

The bikes are great. I have a '23 LRS. Its just the prices are going from insane to even more insane. So many dealerships in the UK are closing down after years of business

[@RideFaster]

he got the rainbow started with the barney purple..... lets see how far he gets.....

[@guysmiley8473]

Why would you praise him? Was he a project manager, designer or director of the Rushmore project? How much is he making the brand pay for more electric motorcycles that nobody buys? Yeah, he's not a hero, Harley customers are just loyal AF. After seeing the new "Ultra" with Polaris lower fairings and not being equipped with the Limited options, on top of a $2,000 price hike, I won't be buying any more baggers from Harley. The "Indian" branding from Polaris is disgusting, but if I have to ride a bike that looks like one with less options for the same price I can probably debadge it.

[@celsoluizabreu6946]

I loved the 2025 Heritage!

[@marathon1972]

Very few qualified more than you to do this comparison!! I truly believe next year we will see touring controls and Nightster S gage with navigation on the LRST

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Yes- that’s what I was thinking too ! Could’ve been a huge improvement if they put the digital round gauge like they have on the new sportsters that include , all information including navigation etc…

[@marathon1972]

@HOLYSHIFT I have a strong feeling it's coming, then I will seriously think about a purchase of the LRST

[@motortastico]

I think now it’s the time to change my Street Glide 22 to a LRST. Those changes will make a diference and brings the softail more close to the tourings models. Faster bike with security improvements 😊

[@jacobperez7246]

they have been doing really well with paint the last few years

[@rebelsroguesco]

Sammy-- First of all, love the videos. I really appreciate the improvements they've made. As a day-one Low Rider ST owner, these are the kinds of changes we've been asking for forever. However, my main issue with Harley-Davidson’s approach is that it's following the tech industry’s playbook (think Apple). They’re rolling out small but noticeable updates year after year-like swapping an analog gauge for a digital one or changing bronze wheels to black-not to enhance the riding experience in a meaningful way, but to make it obvious who has the latest model. It’s the same tactic Apple uses when they tweak phone colors or rearrange the camera layout. I can only imagine how many FXLRST owners will see these updates and feel pressured to trade in their "old" bikes for huge losses. The performance difference between the high-output and the original 117 will likely be negligible for the average rider, yet people will still upgrade just because the new model has an HO badge instead of a standard 117. I’m not here to tell people how to spend their money, but motorcycles certainly aren’t iPhones. This is just another way to prey on FOMO and push the idea that you always need the "best" or "newest"-and consumer culture is already ugly enough as it is.

[@HOLYSHIFT]

You made a good point here !

[@TheGoatRoper]

I’m picking up my 25 road glide tomorrow

[@Southern_Hogz]

The Low Rider ST was nice.. but that blue and black RG was Beautiful!! 🔥

[@davemeshamsr6000]

Sandy, maybe You should just get the 2025 low rider st and go from there…seems like a bike you like and fits your needs…a great upgrade from you 2022 and you can get a really nice paint scheme on the ‘25 models…pull the trigger! Go for it! Better engine, symmetrically bags, ride modes …seems like a no brainer 😂just trade in the’22!! You only live once and you might as well enjoy your time here while you can…I just bought a second bike to ride, a ‘98 Ducati m900 Monster cuz of just that reason…only here for a short time and should enjoy my time while I can 👍🏼keep posting, keep riding and enjoy every moment while we can

[@HOLYSHIFT]

YOLO like the younger kids say ! Absolutely right !

[@twinsixty]

I really love the looks of the new Harleys... I do have the old '22 LowRS ... here in Germany we have new restrictions for bikes starting from '25, they have to be sooooo quiet because of regulations.. even with custom exhaust system. That's why people here will always buy older Harleys

[@thomascarpenter7415]

The LR ST is a winner for this year …

[@ChadLand011]

That Mystic Shift reminds me of that 2004 Mustang Cobra Mystichrome.

[@cyclingtj]

Great video, as always. I just think I can justify to myself paying $1K for the right bag. As I don't ride behind myself, the uneven bag height doesn't really bother me. Have you seen the bag protection bars from Hogworkz? Just ordered a set.

[@ericroadking7564]

Good stuff Sandy!!

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Thanks! 🙏🏻

[@laynesinkhorn9590]

Sandy, if you want bigger bags that are still quick detach you need to look into Nasty Hogs rebel chopped bags. Same mounting as the OEM Lowrider ST bags. But they are touring sized bags.

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Good tip ! Thanks !

[@laynesinkhorn9590]

@@HOLYSHIFT For sure! I also forgot to mention that they can color match almost any Lowrider ST color. I have them for my white sand pearl ST and they are awesome! Hope to see a video on them soon.

[@jimpoulos2272]

How does the motor in this bike compare with the motor in the 2024 Road Glide? They redesigned the 117 motor in the road glide for 2024. I wonder if that is what they are calling the high out put motor for 2025. What do you think?

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Truthfully not sure ! But 1 significant difference is that the 24 touring bikes have liquid cooled heads and a higher RPM limit . That gives the option for some higher numbers of power

[@jimpoulos2272]

@ Sandy, do the 2025 117 softails also have liquid cooled heads? My understanding is the softails have three different variations, classic, custom and high output motors

[@BikesBeardsAndBrews]

Bags are fixed which is a huge win on the low rider ST. I do wish they popped the TFT in there

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Agree ! I would put the gauge from the new sportsters

[@gamebreak81]

Will the lowrider st 25 bags fit previous models? I wonder if its same bracket etc

[@arthurnava4518]

Back fender should be longer with the bags!

[@kerrymcclure7503]

I doubt that the 2 in to 1 exhaust is going to give you any more power because it's still stock exhaust, will still have to be replaced. Only advantage to that exhaust is the larger saddle bag on the right side.

[@ShaunFritz]

Where are high beams switched?

[@alexblackngrey]

i would prefer a smaller left side, the new right sight looks to big for my taste, they should give us both options haha

[@shanestaff6307]

I just bought another low rider st put all same stuff you did on it Advanblack bags led lights and they bring out the 2025 with both them things only thing’s only thing left to make it perfect is info screen

[@FatBoyJim-was-slim]

Same size bags!! Worth buying the bike! Besides. U need a New color. That black with ghost flames is outstanding. Go for is Sandy

[@NorbitMilo]

@holyShift small world 😂I was just there 2 weeks ago when I was visiting my Mom and Sister it’s a nice place but they didn’t have any 2025 like you just said in the video😮 I was surprised too. also, another place that is close by is treasure coast Harley they don’t have 2025. I was disappointed too well I’m going back to PA soon so I guess I’ll visit my Harley dealership in Pocono. Enjoy the warm weather. 👍

[@HOLYSHIFT]

Thanks- I called treasure coast too and they didn’t have any 25 models…

[@thezmanz28]

I saw one in person on Saturday. Spec wise it's better. I disagree that it's much better. I don't feel the cost increase is worth it. If one was in the market for one, I'd say get the 25. If you have a 22-24, then I'd say no need to upgrade.

[@HOLYSHIFT]

I agree ! No need to upgrade from the older models to this ! But I think you get more for your money now compared to what we got in the past !

Its a hot model so there may be less wiggle room but what you "saved" in MSRP they tacked right back on with delivery and set up.
