I tell you what... 883 Sporty, Dyna-Glide, Soft tail and various Japanese bikes over 35 years. 5'9" and 165 lbs, mid 50s. The FLHX or Street Glide, which I own today, is the best balanced bike in the Harley lineup! The Sporty or Dyna are far more squirley and easier to lay over. Trust me I've also wrecked a few as well. Keep ass glued to the seat, roll hips in turns, learn the clutch and rear brake, stay off the front brake under 15 mph. As I always tell people, if you know how to ride, better know how to wreck them as well.

I have a 2019 Low rider. so far so good with my M8. Love it best Harley I've ever owned.

🔥🔥👌🏻👌🏻

How comfortable are your bars,how does your bike handle with them?

Please ware gloves I can tell you haven’t falled yet 😊

Thanks for the share!! What’s the name of those Handlebars?

I had a dirt bike and would just full throttle down back roads to clear my head

That looks so fun but dangerous and im all here for it!! Im getting a dirtbike soon and one im of age im gonna get a street legal bike:)

stay breathing my friend

That sounds so sweet.

Greetings from Europe ( Ireland 🇮🇪). Adv bikes are popular here. Likely because many people use bike as commuters. The weather here is always crap. These bikes make sense as commuters. Naked bikes far outweigh adv bikes here , however. ADV are butt ugly, i think people are more concerned with aesthetics in the US too which may be a factor. I myself have a Streetfighter V4s grey Nero. I’m a fair weather weekend rider who does the occasional light tour so it suits me fine. I don’t need 17 boxes 📦, heated grips, radar controlled cruise control.

look up sales numbers, for a few years now the adventure bike segment is the only one that has seen growth while the rest of the industry has been shrinking.

Most people want to feel the power and lightweight of a Sportbike, supersports, superbikes... as rider enthusiests get older they may be drawn to the Adventure bikes more after they have all the fun. hehe...

Maybe it is just where I live (western US), but it seems like 50+% of the bikes I see on the road are adventure bikes.

I can answer this, most riders in the U.S have no idea how to ride and are intimidated by heavy bikes. Commuting on a motorcycle is looked at as silly in the U.S so most just buy an uncomfortable and impractical sport bike.

With exception of the pan America they are extremely ugly. It’s depressing riding an ugly bike.

I've been riding a Multistrada for 8 years but it's burning a lot of oil at 38k miles and I had to put in a new crankshaft and con rods at 29k. I'm suspicious the oil pump doesn't work consistently.

its a misunderstood segmemt first, if the front adn rear are both 17 inches its not a adv bike, so verys 650 etc are not adv bikes they are corssover/sport tour second, adv bikes are the WORST of both worlds, full of compromises third, price. a flasgship adv bike costs the same as flagship sport or cruiser bikes. so mght as well get the flagship thats better loooking which will be a sport or cruiser bike fourth VERY few people want/need one bike for on and offroad. just get a streetbike, and an enduro second if you want to offroad more etc

Its because adventures in the US are dangerous//

I have an eleven year old Triumph Tiger and although it is in perfect shape, it may be time to sell it and upgrade to a new model.

Us got more important things to do

I have been looking at the adventure bikes as touring bikes. I have no desire to go off road with anything like these. Looking more like one will end up in my garage every day.

I bought my first motorcycle this year. Kawasaki KLR650 Adventure abs. I didn’t want a one trick pony. The other thing I like about it is she doesn’t pull any punches, no surprises. I’m too old to play Evel Knievel. Plus can’t beat the price point.

I think too many Americans think HD when they think motorcycles. I have a rebel 1100 (manual). I went with a cruiser because i like lower seat height. But i do think adv bikes are pretty cool.

Gave up my road glide for a PA 2 years ago, its such a better bike in every aspect. Its more comfortable on longer trips than my RG was. That being said... I still want another traditional cruiser at some point, but I wont be getting rid of the PA for it.

I have a Road Glide and a V Strom 650, love them both and have set the V Strom up for long distance as well. I'm finding I have discussions in my head now on which one I take and its been turning into an argument ;D

Hi, question from your old video. Did your Saddelmen seat get better? I have a stock CVO seat looking into the touring step up. Thanks in advance

All gingers need to be on a ktm. Is that racist?

Looking good brother! What year & model of KTM is your bike? I’m thinking about trading my Harley up too. Thanks

Damn that bike sounds good. She’s a fast one what exhaust do you have exactly?

Thanks bro good honest reviews. I learned a lot and listened closely because I’m picking up my 2021 road glide next week end!

I hate my 24 RG Ltd stock bars. Just bought it last week. Need new bars. This is a good review. Are you still running these bars?

Where did you get that seat?

At 63 years old, I have a very similar story, but no kiddos. I recently sold my 2018 ultra classic HD. I called it my rolling pig because of the weight. Three months ago I bought a brand new KTM 890 Adventure standard model. Just broke it in, first service done, now I’m rocking and rolling. Coming from 1000 pound motorcycle to my KTM, which weighs I believe less than 500 pounds is like riding a bicycle. I’m smiling, and giggling every time I hop on this bike and ride it. PS not looking back. To the big heavy bikes that I’ve always ridden…. Enjoy your new ride, and many smiles to you.

Welcome to the best engine, LC8. I’ve had 3, 15 super duke, 16 SAT and now a 22 SAS.

what kind of bars are those ? look really comfortable

just getting mine done now , same set up can't wait

I have a 2022 Softail Standard and I love the motor performance. One thing I hear all people say when comparing all Harley motors is that they all have their flaws. It makes it look like there are no good Harley motors lol.

Are these the 12' or 14? And how tall are you?

Do thoes pipes have the pcx cats

Like. Like. Like

Too bad they halted victory bikes… You could ride em hard all day , everyday…… Rock solid, and power for days

I went with an S&S 475 cam chest and V&H Big Radius on my '18 Sport Glide for about 500 miles. Just ordered a Bassani Road Rage 2-into-1. I also had increased lifter noise. I will be getting it dyno tuned once installed. The volume of the Big Radius got old real quick Hopefully I like Road Rage better. Great videos, keep up the great work!

Do thoes pipes have the pcx catalyst in them plus are the baffles in or straight piped

My 103 2 cam made 108 /116 with 2-1-2 cobra with SE slip ons. I got bored and now am changing from 57h to comp cam tc3103 and I got a mid length Bassani 2-1. I’m hoping for 115 /120. Hopefully I didn’t mess up buying the Bassani. Time will tell

Chrome always looks better. I just got a bassani mid length with a turnout. That pipe sounds great

Anybody with a M8 have the dreaded sumping issue? I have a 2018 RG with only 10k+ miles, so ive got the older oil pump. Anybody think i should change the oil pump before summer? Planning on flogging her.

Thanks for the vid bro! I’ve had a Shadow for 10years as my first and only bike. Been wanting a RG and did a Parking Lot test ride - FIRST time ever on a HD - and I was totally intimidated. Your vid spoke to every thought and fear I had… and how I need to overcome it

Spot on about the 475 with a 2-2 exhaust and losing a few hp! I have a 132 BB low compression and opted to keep the 475 and keep my Vance And Hines Mini Grenades over going bigger cam and 2-1 exhaust because of the raw bad ass sound! Ill take the few less horsepower and smile every time i hear the exhaust and cam lope. Once you hit 150hp, it doesnt matter anyway lol!
