With classic, raw bobber styling and modern power from Harley's twin-cam 103B engine, the 2014 Harley-Davidson Softail Slim (www.harley-davi...) is a great ride. I picked up a Softail Slim from Glendale Harley's great rental department and rode it up the coast of California from LA to Half Moon Bay for a getaway at the Ritz-Carlton Half Moon Bay.
Here's a brief review and walk around of the bike, done after returning from my long weekend ride. Let me know if you agree with my review in the comments below.

Just bought this bike. Only 1,900 miles on it, and I love it!!

I really enjoyed it. Thanks for your comment, I hadn't thought about the bike in a while. I took it on a long ride and really needed a windshield.

@bsrr3038 6 лет назад

yes, I agree about the windshield. But that would hurt the looks. I ordered some glasses that I hope will help

I hear you. If you're going to ride on the highway, at high speeds, I would use a full-face helmet. I just got a new Schuberth and it's night and day for riding on the freeway.

Cool review. I have a crush on that bike.

I really liked it. As a shorter rider, it was really comfortable for me.

Great bike I love my fls. If your looking to get this bike model you will run into issues with passenger pegs being right on the pipes in most cases so be prepare to relocate or burn a foot. Waiting on kit to relocate as I write and new seat so passenger is as comfortable as me for longer rides

Thanks for watching. Good info. Check out my review of the 2017 Kawasaki Vulcan Custom, it's the exact same size as the Fat Boy, but with an engine that's half the size.

Just bought the bike, can you let me know what kit you ordered? Much appreciated....I've seen come guys put the pegs on the seat bolts but seems high.

I have the 2014 Fls Softail Slim, i was kinda speeding around 50 and leaned to the left to change lanes when the handle bars did the Mombo on me.. I tried to control it and slow it down but the only thing that slowed me down to where i was able to control it was side swiping a SUV. Luckily i was wearing awesome riding boots that saved my foot but my floorboard was trashed. I was lucky. Im still monitoring the bike to see what went wrong (the Mombo) but i also know i should have been riding normally and not leaning into lane changes.

Damn bro, sorry to hear that. Maybe something with the brakes or the alignment / tire balancing? Also could have been a tiny oil or wet patch on the road right when you leaned.
