I’m a floor board and heel/toe shifter too! First bike, 2001 Honda Shadow 750 had pegs and I changed them to floorboards and h/t shifter. Never looked back and will always have that on any cruiser I own. Funny I test rode a BMW R18 tourer last week and it had both but it wasn’t lined up properly and was very awkward.

I've ridden with stock pegs, forward controls, and floorboards, and I like floorboards the best. I habitually used the heel shifter on the first bike I had with floorboards ('97 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500), and I never use it on my current bike ('03 Suzuki Intruder 1500LC). No clue why I used one but not the other. 🤷😂

Our dealer a two for sale so my partner and I bought them and have so much fun. They are comfortable, fast and the retro look adds appeal. The Ducati Panigale V4S you also sat on is fun, fast (214bhp), but extremely safe to ride with the incredible electronics build it. Not so great for the long journeys. I bought one of these and used it throughout the summer. Now it’s put away as the wether gets colder. The white Panigale V2 is also great fun. It’s has loads of power, 155bhp, but safe to ride in all weathers. Try out the Ducati’s just for the experience, and hopefully make another video when doing it👍

The previous owner must not have liked it either to lose $8k on the sale. Any how, I took my first ride on it this morning. While I was riding I kept hearing your words about not liking the handling of the bike because of the 240 rear tire. I found myself learning to ride all over again because the Fat Boy does not want to lean over like cruisers with smaller rear tires. I will have learn to master this fat tire handling situation. Doesn’t Mike have a 240 rear tire on his bike? Did he just learn to live with it? -Edward from Tx
@megsmotorcyclejourney Жыл бұрын
Yes, Mike does have a 240, he makes up for turning ease by leaning the bike. However, as a result, he is close to scraping through his primary cover. Also, Mike is the most skilled rider I know and can ride any bike like it was made specifically for him so he’s not the best person to make judgments off. That’s an awesome deal though and if you’ve been a rider for all your life, you’ll adapt! Congratulations on the new bike!

The main reason why you don’t see many of Fat Boy on the road is: Fat Boy are only good on Straight Lines * Not made for Road you have to Turn \ Corners, never heard any reviews where the riders aren’t complaining about handling The Tiers are too Flat Just like the original Sportster Roadster Tires Changing the Tiers makes it to a Much more enjoyable Ride

Hi Meg 👋 OK firstt off you looked Absolutely Stunning in that plaid top!!! And with those leather pants , whew!!! Your setup for your voice while riding was perfect this time 👍🤗 About the grooves through the road work , that fat front tire helps it feel much smoother than the skinny front tire on your bike , but it also doesn't turn as easy at low speed either , that's why you felt like it didn't handle as well as your bike does at low speed . Great video though , hope you didn't freeze too bad 😁 Here's a glove tip for non heated gloves , get a pair of silk glove liners and your hands won't get Near as Cold !!! I use them when I ride in the cold 20's-40's temp , and I've never used heated gloves and I do just fine 👍 Well Counselor , you have yourself an Awesome week , and look forward to seeing that infectious beautiful smile again soon 😊

@@megsmotorcyclejourney You're welcome . Just look on line for silk glove liners , Cycle Gear sells them , just make sure they're real silk 👍 And thanks for always taking the time to respond , I know you're a busy gal , and that just speaks volumes about you and your sincerity in life and your channel 😊👍👏👏

Your helmet has pinlock don’t know if you have a pinlock inner visor? It will stop helmet steaming up when you stop nice video from uk 🇬🇧 p.s, good review x

Appreciate the kind words. I don’t know if I do. One of the MANY reasons I hate a full face- but will wear it for y’all. Lol

@@megsmotorcyclejourney if helmet steams up with visor shut you need a pinlock visor insert to sort it! I don’t care what helmet you wear I wear open face as well as full face depending on weather look forward to more videos from you both ! And a top reviewer rode the fatbob and said exactly the same as you! Slow turning ect he said it was a bit of a boat? Lol 😂 love from uk 🇬🇧 x

Meg I love yea but it’s pretty big on you. First thing is does you heated gloves work by plugging it into USB port? Soft rails have a port on the left side of the frame. Third you really should ride someone’s Deluxe. It’s what I have even though I don’t get to ride it. Very very nice bike. Hugs
