After several bikes 3-bmw's i finally bought a 2018 road king, and couldnt be happier with my decision, harley for life, there is no other brand for me, you just cant understand until u ride one, they are incredible...
You all prolly dont care but does anyone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost the account password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me
@Dax Scott Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and im trying it out now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
My wife saw this when we attended the local dealer's yearly fashion show yesterday. After comparing this Low Rider to the CVO Breakout we felt comfortable with our '09 FXDC....
Oh God yes, I am 5'10 and I have a 2018 Forty Eight but it's got much taller suspension than stock and I am still flat foot. The 1200T would be an incredibly easy bike to handle for someone that is 5'9!
The 1200 T looks great and at my height of 5' 3" it would fit perfectly but why only 2 inches of rear suspension travel it is going to be a bit harsh on British roads. One more inch of rear ride height would not be a problem and make it far more comfortable when touring. Also why non-waterproof panniers on a tourer here in Britain and northern Europe, not a good idea has it tends to rain a lot. It has an integrated alarm but no locking fuel cap. Also has Dennis Kilker says why only five-speed transmission on a tourer. Surely a 1200cc engined motorcycle has plenty of power. Before I did some research I was going to book a test ride but by the time I had swapped the saddlebags for waterproof ones changed out the shocks to gain more suspension travel for touring it became uneconomical. A real shame because I really love the look of the bike.
I agree on the rear suspension. I currently ride a standard Sportster and had a chance to ride a lower to the ground Sportster Iron. My suspension is great but the Sportster Iron was brutal when riding over bumps, especially with the thin saddle. The ground clearance was much less on the Sportster Iron. I'm 5'6" tall and can barely flat-foot my bike and I have room to spare with the lower Sportster Iron. You were right to pass up the lower bike.
Tuff Adams Ok, use your clutch instead of your front brake and see where it gets you. I just think it's funny because it is a presentation and advertisement. Makes no sense to leave it wrong. Much better an advertisement than a motorcycle teacher. Do you ever wonder about what missing detail-experience that caused the WY guy to wipe himself out within 3 miles of getting his nice new bike ? Best I can think of, is he incorrectly steered his bars away from the 18 wheeler.
anyone that has ever ridden a motorcycle should already know which is the clutch and which is the brake. And anyone that goes out and buys a harley for a first bike is either stupid as hell or has way too much money
The Sportster isn't ruined because this model did not replace any other models. It is just one more option. At least with the Sportster, depending on the model years, you could choose forward or mid-controls and different size front wheels. All of these variations in one model is a good thing.
