Why The Road Glide might not be the bike for you 

Whoever buys this bike, you are getting a great Road Glide Ultra. I know because this is my old bike! I traded it in a few weeks ago for a 2018 Goldwing Tour. The tires are fairly new, rear has about 3K and the front a bit over 1K. It's been properly maintained and serviced, and the only issue I had in 19K miles was the water pump, which was replaced with a new one about 4K miles ago. Other than that she is tip top and runs fantastic. She's been out to Glacier Nat Park, down to the Smokies, and up into Maine and on top of Mt. Washington. She's a great touring machine, and to whoever buys her, congratulations on a great Harley! :)

Agree on the looks. I hated it to start with, but damn did it grow on me. Currently looking at a Road Glide as my next bike, specifically a 2013 CVO Road Glide :D

Did I miss the part about why it may not be for me or was that straight up deception

Love the color, I just took delivery of the 2018 Road Glide Ultra in Electric Blue. A ton of power and best handling I have ever owned. Thank you for the prayer.

I am 5’9 and 160 and I ride a 2018 road glide ultra no problems at all, and I got legend shocks that are adjusted for taller for ground clearance no problems at all

My first Harley was and is the 2012 Roadglide. I can’t imagine being on any other Harley model. For a big guy like me 6-5 .. it’s perfect.

I finally rented a Road Glide Ultra this past weekend. As for me, the RG is overrated. Decent power for what you need. But that suspension was horrible. Bike really should be in the 19k price range.

I might be the odd one, but I liked the Road Glide the first time I saw one. I had already bought my 2000 wide glide with intentions to see it turn over 100,000 before trading so I was stuck. However, I got to test drive a road glide at a dealer demo run and was very impressed with it. There was almost NO wind noise at any speed up to 70. So I determined right then the Road Glide would be my replacement when Scarlet reaches 100,000 miles. Now, I plan to keep Scarlet and ride it intermittently with the newer Road Glide.

My Road King Classic is black. I love the green Road King like Caleb's Dad has.

Nice bike. Nice prayer too. Everybody ride safe!

Beautiful! This would be the Harley I would buy...I love the fixed front end and overall styling.

Love Road Glides. Had three batwing fairings. Rode a Road Gilde and have my second Road Glide now.

I have a 2013 CVO road glide ultra and it is flawless with nearly 50k miles on it now. The only slight niggle originally was that if you take your hands off the bars while slowing down at around 40 MPH the front end wobbles like a mini tank slapper and this was nothing too serious, just a little unexpected fright. Yes there is a fix for that but I never bothered as i was afraid that it could change other things. Several times I gave it a BLAST and brought it up to over 115 mph (German Autoban to be legal !) and it was as steady as a rock, even took my hands off the bars at 90 mph and it is PERFECT. I had 2 ultras before this bike and both of them wallowed (swayed) a bit in wind or while overtaking trucks on the highway, but you also get used to that as the ultras were a good bike EXCEPT the 2007 model which would go in to a serious speed wobble at around 82 to 84 mph especially on a long sweeping corner. Yea the Shark nose grows on you and the handling is very good.. P.S . I am only 5 foot 3 inches short and have had this bike from new, OK I had to fit air suspension on the rear to suit my little legs but I love this bike. I am now 62 and have been constantly being riding Harley Davidson's since 1985. This is not a brag as it is just my honest personal experiences. Kind Regards Tommy from Ireland.

Sean great video as always, I just want to say Victory Vision styling was cutting edge. I don’t think it aged all that well though.

Have owned many harleys over the years Best bag for your Buck Road King Special touring an yet fun on the Backroads 😎

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way about traffic cones.

Hey all. I know this is a very late post for this video, but I'm looking for advice from experienced Harley riders. My wife and I want a touring bike so I' considering a RGU vs Ultra Low, I'm 5'7" 160 lbs. I have 6 years riding experience; 3 years with a Yamaha Raven cruiser and 3 years with an Ultra Limited. Sold the Ultra Limited since we weren't taking long trips with it. Got a Mustang Convertible instead. Thoughts on the Road Glide Ultra vs Ultra Low for my height? Thanks!

I looked at one today the only isues is i csnt put my feet flat so when i was siting only my tip toes were touching the ground what would be best solution lowert seat or low susp or do i just stick with soft tail im 5,8

I just bought a 2018 road glide I’m so excited to ride it tomorrow

If you get a Yamaha star eluder can you make a video on it? I’m looking to getting one

You have to hold in that info button on the right to put the display in day mode.

Mario Mora I rode Harleys and had and I rode an FLH daily for a decade straight. Last year, I bought a 2013 Victory Country Country off a buddy of mine: HOOKED. I recently bought another Victory for touring, a 2015 Victory Vision, WOW (just came back from N Cal/live in LA) what a ride. Now that Victory is no longer made: I like them more. Don’t hate Harleys one bit, but BOY was I always either working on them or they were in the shop. (Got M/C license 47 yrs ago), I am sure Harleys are more reliable these days...Hope it isn’t true about manufacturing Harleys in Thailand...

I never liked the Road glide either until I road it now my next bike very well might be a road glide? I have a street glide but next year I will be getting a newer bike

I saw one. Sat on one. Test rode one. Then bought it. Went up to 65ish in 3rd gear. Tons of torch. I was hooked.

Love that you open with a prayer.👍🏼 Rubber side down brother stay safe out there and keep the content coming!

If you ride the sg and the rg fast on the highway you notice a difference in wind deflection between the two. I’ve owned 2 sgs and only ridden one rg for 15 minutes

Been riding a Harley since i was 16 bought it before i did a car .The Roadglide is by far the best handeling motorcycle. I ever owned . i have an 2011 i installed progressive monotubes in the ft and the revoa coil adjs in the rear. I ride year round. I considered trading for a newer model even test rode a few my 11 will be my last bagger. No need for a new one

Those are pretty cool it grows on you.

I have a 01 road glide with a 114 is a fantastic machine

I love the RG,,, unfortunately I’m 5’7” 😂, I ride a 21 SG,,, and have zero complaints, but I do think the Shark Nose is awesome,,, Keep up the pre ride prayers! So important 😊

I like the pre Rushmore road glide best, I love my 2013.

Those are incredible bra!

Personally like all bikes for long distance cruising road glide hard act Apollo

i have one its for a highly experienced rider, thats my 11th bike. i luv mine. only rg's from here on out...

I love the prayer bro. Very nice.

I guess you had to WANT to hear something negative, but all I got was objective, accurate comments. Beautiful country and I like that you start with a prayer.

Gear indicator?!? What a great idea.

Shawn grate video as always but you need to take that bike out on the freeway let it run that's where it really shines

"Nike swoosh had a baby with a cycle" hard to uninvision that bro

I always thing the font looks like Bender from Futurama

U catch alot of wind on a rk i must admit.

we just aint talk about the sound being in only the left ear?

I've road them not impressed I have a 2017 ultra limited I'm happy. Different strokes for different folks. And by the way all the touring bikes in the Harley-Davidson line have the same frame

The fairing looks bulky when you look at it from a distance. But, once you sit on the Road Glide, THE FAIRING DISAPPEAR. You don't even see it it's so low.

Hey killer, how’s the glove project coming along? When will they be on sale ? I want a pair and already talking to my friends about them here in south Florida

The instrumentation is better positioned on the challenger.

Shark NOSE.... not Shark Mouth. Lol They have grown on me too. I use to HATE the look.

My favorite even though I have a road king m8

Me being a shorter dude... 5 foot 9... I like the street glide better... I don't have to look down for the speedo... the streetglide spedo is at eye level

I have a rk 107 and my friend has the rk103 i couldn't tell much difference honestly...

I have a 2008 Road glide and I love it. However was in the market for a 2020 Road glide. The sad part is all of us loyalist fall for the same HD scam! You pay $30,000 for a bagger and Harley-Davidson anticipates that you'll drop another $6000 to change the stock suspension, change the seat, change the handlebars and change the windshield. I recently rode a 2020 Indian Challenger and all of these upgraded components come stock. And the bike is $3,000 less. I don't know if I'm going to be in HD loyalist any longer.

Great bike

audio only in left speaker

The M-8s are easier to screw with and more fun. Ask me how I know that. ;-)

I think softail in white look better

I don't think I've purchased a pair of Nikes since they started making them look like Muppets® for your feet... Maybe I'm just a humble guy, but I have never felt any desire to draw that much attention to my feet xD

I’d ride that all day

It is the best bike for big guys. I'm 5'11 245lbs

I test road a road glide special with a 110. The bike was noticeably heavier and I mean very noticeable compared to my fat boy. that I didn’t like but the pros was the comfort, my goodness I could have ridden it all day. And that stationary fairing is a game changer for the highway. The power from the 110 was great, maybe 103, may lug a bit since the bike is heavy (nothing some se-255 can fix) but, it cruises so well and great on my back but still won’t be my next bike. Once you ridden a low rider S, there is no other comparable Harley. of course imo.

3:25 😂

I kind of like the Road Glides, but me being short is the reach to the infotainment center!

so i'm getting the idea this is not a good bike for a short shit like me lol

Those prayers are one of the reasons I got attached to this channel, keep the content coming God bless you bro ,right on brother 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

I enjoy the road king.

9:00 still waiting for answer..............

what about the guys on trike don't you pray for them?

I'm a huge Victory and Harley fan! I still say the Vision and Road Glide are both ugly. And that Indian with the fairing is ugly and I've always love Indian. The Chief is pretty!

Well I am a big guy

Amen

Amen 🙏🙏

Im 5'9". It might not be for me.lol

I'm not even religious and I enjoy the words of wisdom. I dont feel like you are trying to sell me anything. Except a motorcycle

RG is the best bagger made. There is no sence in having a big ass faring attached to your forks -- especially for people that are coming from more "sporty" bikes.

My girlfriend thought I was ugly until she rode me too lol

I pray everyday too

The fairing is called a "Shark nose" not shark mouth...come on man!!!

love the look, too bad about the handlebars.

its for a big guy 4 sure...

T bars on a road glide forever

That bike is NOT black.

Haha. I unsubbed years ago because of the clickbait.

U gotta say in jesus name.

Seeing you ride this Road Glide remind me why Harley-Davidson is doing so poorly! I will take a Honda over a hardly any day! It's not only because of the money, it's because of the longevity durability and ride quality!

Your reviews are worth watching but can you manage to stick to the bike reviews and leave the religious comments alone. There's a time and place for everything and this isn't the place for your preaching. I wouldn't mind if there was a genuine intellectual edge to them but there isn't. "Keep all riders safe" or whatever it was you said. Come on, riders get killed everyday despite your naive praying to the contrary. And please don't come back with another lame quote from the book to counter what I said. Or delete my comment.
