Been waiting awhile for one to come up as a test bike, finally got a go this morning, so far I've ridden .....
No wello, I'm window shopping, but if the time comes that would be my pick of them so far, would still like to ride the slim, lowrider, deluxe and street bob but I'm pretty sure where they all fit in based on the ones I've ridden so far, this is a very good bike stock but I would still modify it so it has balls.
Interesting your take on it mate I haven`t ridden any new ones but I really like the aesthetics of the sport glide as well the practicality of being able to take off the bags Hummm
I like the look of them too, with and without the bags. If I was looking now, it would be a Sport Glide or second hand Low Rider Sport.
agree but I think the Low Ride only has mid mounts would have to change that unless second hand one has them already .
Out of all the newies , this is the one that appeals to me.
Haven't ridden one yet but have been on a run with one, went well in stock trim.
Easy enough to take off the bags/fairing for round town ( think they look good with/without bags, fairing) and great to have the bags for the longer trips.
If I was considering a newie, I'd be taking one for a run, they're not bad looking either, well apart from those wheels ;-).
I thought you could put forwards on the LRS? If not, well, that’d cross it off the list for me.
GM. you seem to like your engines to perform.....wouldn't go for something with a 114? What was your drawback on the Fat Boy?
My main concern with all of these M8 engines is reliability given some of the major issues.
Yeah time will tell on the reliability, the twin cams have their issues though, you and I have the engines with the biggest question marks over them, but they are bloody great when they are problem free.
