I have a 2019 Triglide Ultra 114 and it will cook your right leg in the summer time. The rear cylinder de-activation does absolutely nothing to cool the engine (in my opinion)
Awesome video and your correct, Harley Davidsons are heavy and they will cook your leg. However, in the winter when it’s quite cold out, that heat off the engine feels wonderful. I still want to call you Duke of Austin. 😎
My Dad used to almost always wore chaps as a measure of safety. But if your leg is burning then that’s what the front foot pegs are for, I think. Good video 👍👍
Your stuffy jacket is called a Dianese air in the words listing. I don't want a burning leg. Can you explain how to get a highway bike that doesn't burn your leg? Is it a V-twin thing? Are there V-twins that are water-cooled? Will a Honda flat burn your leg? I have an unceremoniously air cooled parallel twin teeny tiny motor and it has a detectable heat in the summer, no more..You had better review all of these enormous hogs for us. Does Harley build bikes now that are not V-twin? I know the V'Rod had a radiator. I'm staying tuned.
Martin D Harley doesn’t build a bike that’s not a v-twin. The leg heat is a tribute of an air cooled engine. All bikes I’ve ever owned are air cooled, you kinda get use to it. That being said in the heat of the summer you want to stay moving sitting in traffic is not a good thing for an air cooled bike. No air movement no engine cooling so they will over heat. As far as a liquid cooled v twin I can’t answer your question on that I don’t know much about other manufacturers although Indian just released a fixed fairing bagger called the challenger with a power house of a water cooled v twin that I would love to ride. Sorry I’m not more help lol I discovered the duke in my efforts to learn about other bikes and manufacturers
