What to know before buying a low rider s

[@FXFBS540]

Rode my FXFBS to town looking for some new boots yesterday. Every where I went people stop, look, and ask about the bike.

[@Marvelkid87]

its a great feeling

[@SuperSAMAORI]

I got a new low rider s.i replaced tires because of our new zealand road conditions,I changed handle bars.forward controls,2into1 exhaust,131 kit& it runs beautifully&goes hard.love it.

[@s_totha_g]

Best part of the video was you yelling in pure joy in the beginning. I love my Lowrider as well. Great video.

[@gslife1]

You have one bad ass bike bro! Just got my first Harley, first ever motorcycle and I’m loving every minute of it! Great video like always!

[@Marvelkid87]

Thanks and ride safe!

[@jaredfournier3824]

I just bought a 2021 street bob and now I kind of regret not buying a low rider s....but still love my street bob...or maybe ,just maybe.... one day I will have my all black road glide special....maybe!

[@danielbianchi3479]

My 1st Bike was a 1979 Lowrider $5100 out the door! New York to California & back solo twice ! The old shovel head, never had any mechanical problems & I rode it Hard! Love this 1, I definitely will be getting 1, but probably 3-4 years old because of a cash problem’ The new big motors has to have slot more torque & speed! Awesome Machine! Be Safe

[@Cram380]

Hey man i bought mine like 2 month ago and that weird wheel vibration in the front wheel was pretty bad on mine so i changed the tires for some Avon Cobra and now it rides a lot smoother. Peace men love your videos ride safe 🤘

[@FattyMcJason]

It's REAL! My dealer said "nothing there" after a test ride on my FXLRS. Oh well, I'll just live with it 'till I need a new tire.

[@Cram380]

@@FattyMcJason Yeah! Me too but they switch the wheels from another low rider s they had in stock but that vibration was still there and they were saying it probably came from like the pendulum (dont know if that is the correct Word i speak french ahah) in the engine that cause the vibration. So i tried To just cut the engine off at like 65-70 mph and i could still feel the vibration so they finally change the tires for something else then those michelin scorcher! But there is a little vibration between like 45-55 mph but with the new tires its just so much smoother, before that mine was no joke.

Cobra chromes are the only way to go...

[@BrickandStein1999]

As a Harley tech. We've had a few people complain about the front end vibration or "hop" as some people have called it. It's just because of the inverted forks. It's inherent with that design. I haven't heard of that issue on other inverted front end equipped softtails so the reduced rake might have something to do with it as well

[@THEREALZENFORCE]

Strange claim of yours most modern bikes have inverted forks and only a few have vibrations.

[@randal3122]

its kind of weird that they are called inverted forks on these bikes. on dirtbikes, they are calles forks lol. i didnt even realize a lot of harleys are different until i started hearing about "inverted forks" on youtube. interesting

[@josephfischer2542]

I have a 2021 it vibrates at 40-50 mph if i take one or both hands off handlebars has good tires only has 8000 miles any thoughts ?

[@drewlansing8520]

The vibe in the front in is from that fairing. I have the same bike and the same fairing. I added a gpr stabilizer which mostly eliminates it.

[@GLH1213]

Wow never thought of that. Thanks

Trust me I traded my 2019 road king special that I had a stage two on for this, because I still owed my bill came to 22500, well worth it since the king is way more, but so heavy. Since last November this bike has been everything . Best bike Harley has done since the Dyna

[@Marvelkid87]

%100 agree there is a lot of people coming off of baggers and getting into this bike.

[@Gunker02]

I was wanting the road king and settled on the street bob... went in and sat on the lowrider s and I was sold. Ended up taking one home the very next day. Its a beauty of a bike. Love it!

I tried one recently ( the dealer finally got one for test riding) ... I thought : if it rides as good as it looks ... I'll tell you what, it rides even better ! It's an amazing bike, it can do everything and does it well ... the saddlemen seat you have put on is a great choice ... I'd put higher raisers ( 1 inch or 2 )

[@NorCal-refrigeration]

🤘⚡️🤘. I can get over 220 miles on a tank. Exhaust and SE tuners. I also got it over 125mph.

[@THEREALZENFORCE]

125mph, so almost like a small 8k new price 600 regular naked bike or sports bike ? That's like 2nd gear on modern 200hp plus 1000cc bikes (Aprilia RSV4, Bmw S1000RR and the Honda CBR1000RRR SP does 90mph in first gear) And for the H-D torque argument, try a 225Nm Rocket 3R, 140Nm Super Duke R, 150Nm ZZR1400. Or classics Triumph Speed Twin, Bobber Gold Line

They may have looked better but the monoshock design used on the new one is a much better performer. The Dyna platform can’t compete with this new Softail S

[@mountaingoat168]

I really appreciate the shot of you sitting on the bike and then telling us your height. I'm a short fucker and most videos feature some 6 foot giant and obviously I cannot relate. That shot gave me a reference point. Thank you Brother. Right now trying to choose between this bike or the Indian Chief Dark Horse. Bragging rights and larger tank vs tech. Hard decision. thanks for the vid.

[@vitorcoelho5271]

Great video bro! I've been saving money since last year, and my focus was on a Softail Standard 2021, but when I saw this bike I fell completely in love, and was in doubt about waiting more than the expected. After this video I know I absolutely want it! I'll have to wait a bit more to get on the road with a harley 😂Congratulations for your bike it is an absolute masterpiece. Gorgeous from tip to tip.

Nice bike but I could say everything you said about my Heritage Classic 114 with all my upgrades and stage one.

[@TheGreywolf1382]

Brah, maybe so. But a heritage is about as "boomer" as it gets. I mean no disrespect, but it can be hard for younger Harley riders to assimilate into that crowd, we just have different priorities.

[@jakeb.1318]

Only reason I would go with the low rider S instead of the fat bob is the gas tank, don’t understand why Harley gave the bob a small ass tank

[@aaronkaplan9426]

Grest video! How does the Memphis Shades fairing do on longer highway riding?

[@THEREALZENFORCE]

I like the Low Rider S looks but not the bad tech and too small service intervals. 2021 S1000RR, oil every 6000 miles, engine every 18000 miles. Ducati Multistrada : every 9000 miles, and valve service after 37280 miles. Time for Harley to make a new Dyna with modern engine (150hp revolution max engine) and modern tech (traction control, lean ABS, anti-lift control, up and down quickshifter, TFT navigation, hill control, 6 axis IMU, heated grips, Brembo M50, Öhlins suspension) and service intervals as the bikes i listed above what a cool bike that Dyna would be

[@BoogiemanMoto]

Super solid video man. You went over pretty much everything you possibly could about the bike in stock form, how it rides, handles, power etc and all of your mods since new. Very informative and well done. I’ve done a crap load of research in the last month, and the only thing I took notice of is the rake difference is 28 degrees on the S vs 30 degrees on the standard Low Rider and other Softail models. The Fat Bob also shares the 28 degree rake. Looking forward to your results after the Stage 2 cam upgrade. Did you get a dyno sheet after the Stage 1 tune? if so what did it make?

[@rider14mcd63]

A lot of that gas is disappearing blipping that throttle playing that sweet Vtwin music.

[@oztursen]

I test rode this bike yesterday. Now, I cant get over the sound of that engine, especially when it first starts and how smooth and powerful it is at the same time. HD did a fantastic job with the engine and throttle response. No funny herky jerky business when you either downshift or upshift. The only thing I cannot get over is the seating position. I am coming from an adventure bike and I am used to sitting upright and with legs tucked underneath. The position of foot pegs and the weird reach to the handlebars is concerning on this bike. Is that something one gets used to? Other than that, I am ready to pull the trigger.

[@lowridersolson4649]

Hey brother what type of gas do you use premium, super or just regular unleaded and how do you wash your bike by hand and squirt bottle? I got my 2020 lowrider S about a month ago ! Love it!
