@@StillMansa it's definitely nice having a store nearby with so many options.

@garywebb7481 its funny you mentioned that, we were down there by it this weekend, but didn't ride it. We've ridden it several years ago but plan on doing it again soon. I just posted some pics of our trip on Facebook.

@ericglasgow1616 that's awesome! We may be heading out that way this weekend. Plans are still up in the air.

I hope that i still have the weekend off if so i will be out and about maybe i will see you

@@HarleysDinersRides nothing wrong with that....we love to ride also!

@@2wheelwhit cool little place

@@michaelnapper4565 that's awesome! Appreciate you watching and commenting

@@bikerbrinrac thanks! Yeah, I'm glad I finally made the change to taller bars. Definitely feels better.

@james82744 I looked at the Yaffe bars, and they looked like a good option. Yeah, after riding with these for 2 short rides, I think 14" was the right choice. I'll know more after some long rides.

@@dvferyance we're looking forward to heading back up there. Beautiful area!

Thanks!

@@motorcycleden thank you!

Thanks! Yeah, pulling the fairing off does add a little difficulty to it. I was on the fence, but so many people mentioned how the polyurethane bushings introduced vibration that they didn't feel prior, which was the last thing I wanted on long rides. Honestly, I've had the bike out twice now, and I think the movement feels the exact same as with the stock bars. I had purchased HD brand poly bushings, but I know several mentioned there's a difference just between the different brands. What did you like about the polyurethane over the stock ones?

@@motorcycleden I had a problem where my bars moved when I pulled the bike backwards to get out of the garage. I thought it was the bars moving in the clamp, when I took the fairing off o could see the whole clamp rock (not a lot) so I replaced the bushings to try that. Been good since. And a little bonus is the bike is more responsive to bar input. I have a pic of the old bushings on my IG I think. The vibration is not enough to worry about to me.

Thanks!

Always stay with your rider. Your shoulders should always line up with his. If he leans, you lean. You won’t be that big rock if you are leaning with him. If you need to move, tell him first. Need to adjust your legs, lean back, lean forward, tell him before you move and never do it in corners. If you are riding on a straight road, you can move but still check with him because he can see things you can’t. Maybe a corner is coming up, or there is something in the road he needs to get around. May I ask what video you are referring to? Maybe I can answer you better if I know exactly what the video says.

Hello. What bike are you on? With a cruiser or sport touring bike, If you sit more upright, closer to him ( not lounging back against backrest) it’s easier to engage your legs to control sliding around, without wearing your legs out. Also keep your hands on his hips, you will feel him starting to move before you are actually moving. The more you ride the easier it is. Another thing-is he cleaning the seat? The cleaners do make it slippery and will calm down with time. Hope this helps. Let me know

@2wheelwhit people talk very highly of it. It reminds me too much of our Yamaha FJR and that's not a direction I ever want to go again. But that's just me. I'm sure it's a great motorcycle!

@lazylightning9378 never know what you'll find out on the road

@markthomason8396 thanks! They are Ciro3d. I like the looks of them, but they are about $100 more than Custom Dynamics. At least last time I looked.

@bikerbrinrac yeah I'm liking it! I like that I can plug it into a USB and it connects to my phone Bluetooth. I think I'm going to put my phone in trunk or glove box and move it up near where my phone is now. Definitely a fairly cheap way to get Android Auto or Apple CarPlay

@@Ucmpigs thanks! I am definitely impressed with it.

@kirkasplin776 I haven't ridden the '24 yet, but want to. I sat on the '24 Road Glide and it's more of a relaxed seating position than our 2020. I was wondering if they would change the Road Glide Limited for next year. A salesman at a local dealership said they are phasing out the limiteds. Not sure if that's true. I think he was trying to sell us a new Road Glide. Choosing between the two can be tough. We had an '18 UL and both styles are great bikes. With the Mrs, she said the airflow was better for her on the RGL.

@@motorcycleden wow I can't imagine them phasing them out. That'd be horrible. I was thinking maybe they'd change the RG Limited front end to the same as the 24 road glide. But the reason I'm waiting is more funds related 😄.

@kirkasplin776 I was thinking the same thing, that Harley may change to the newer style RG & SG on the Limiteds. The one thing I think would happen is they do away with the Limiteds and then if someone wants the extras that came with them, they'd have to purchase it separately. You know how much more that would cost! When we looked at new RG, they were telling us the prices to add a trunk and other things. Let's just say it wasn't cheap.

@kirkasplin776 The Ultra is the looker, but the RGL is the superior motorcycle. The fixed fairing makes handling better at all speeds, and at night it improves visibility in the corners noticeably as the headlight points straight ahead instead of turning with the bars as you counter steer and lean in. I have a '24; it's simply an awesome machine. I traded in a '19 Road King that had been my dream bike (and was nicely upgraded for comfort, performance, safety, and reliability) but now that I have the Limited there is simply no going back. I've ridden almost every bike that Harley makes (and have owned 4 M8 bikes) and I'd even take this over the Street Glide and Road Glide CVOs. Also, the upgraded Rockford Fosgate system is dynamite, if pricey. Get it if you can afford it.

​@@jonathandantonio649 Thanks for the info! From everything I've seen and read I have to agree with you. And actually, the wife prefers the look of the Road Glide Limited anyway. And of course if she's happy, more miles for me 😂. It will be the Road Glide if we can make it happen. Thanks again for the input, ride safe!

Thanks! Well, there has been some miscommunication between lexin and myself. So I'm not sure if I'll be doing a review. I'm hoping to, but it's still uncertain. If you'd like to contact me at motorcycleden@gmail.com we can discuss the intercom.

@@motorcycleden I might do that. Thanks.

I am impressed with it.

Thanks!

It is! I definitely like it.

Ah, I don't need gauges. The info screen tells me my speed and I can pretty tell what the rpm's are. I will probably move it up by where my phone is and keep my phone in the glove box. We'll see where it fits best

@@motorcycleden Got Ya. It’s a bit too “GoldWing”for me. 😀👍💯

I can see it for bikes without the Harley 6.5 GTS head unit but why not use the Android Auto or Apple Carplay on you bike that is already built in?

@RRatedCustoms I get what you're saying, but I had to connect wired to the harley and I for whatever reason I didn't get voice directions in my intercom. When I'm using just my phone or this device, I do. Probably had a setting wrong. But this unit is mainly designed for bikes without any type of navigation or infotainment system.

@@motorcycleden Are you saying for Android Auto - your headset was connected to the bike or the phone or both? Also are you talking about Android Auto was not talking to you or it did not recognize voice commands? My 2019 has the 6.5 GTS and I have not run into any Andoid Auto problems so far. Still learning more every day.

If I said 10,000 a month, I meant 10k a year. I wish I had the time and money to ride 10k a month. I would love it! There is something cool about seeing all the different bikes.

@@motorcycleden Ah 10k a year riding then sounds pretty normal to me for a weekend all weather bike rider 🏍️👍 Ps I only do about 3-5k a year as we get alot of rain throughout the year being near the coast where I live, and im really only a sunny day rider so do low miles.

@@bikerbrinrac nothing wrong with that. At least you're riding

She sure does help me keep a good balance.

It's one of our favorites on the east side of the US.

Thanks!

I think you have a great view on the subject! Thanks for commenting

@@motorcycleden As someone who considers themselves addicted to motorcycles, recording, video editing, amongst other things, and sometimes I want to stop each of those, I've put a lot of thought into this.

We have actually met a couple during a lunch stop and it worked out great! Sometimes it can be difficult if we are on a 400+ mile day, which doesn't leave much time at our stops. We love riding in Kentucky! I don't think you can go wrong with Kentucky. Which state are you guys coming from? If you decide to head to Kentucky and have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them if I can.

@@motorcycleden Georgia.

@BackRoadzRider Kentucky wouldn't be too far and a lot of good riding. You've probably seen it, but backroadsofappalachia.org/ is a great site. We haven't ridden very many roads mentioned on there just because it's so far south for us, but we plan to at some point.

Makes perfect sense to me.

I've ridden a lot solo but would much rather ride with my wife.

Yeah, for me, it doesn't interfere with my job, but sometimes interferes with my home life. I guess it's all about finding a balance. Thanks!

​@@motorcycleden"home is where the heart is"...

I like that. We'll call it a passion! Thanks for the good advice. Glad to hear you're putting a lot of miles on that build.

That is a good husband. Lol I'm sure your wife will appreciate not losing any parts on the road. 👍

Driving a school bus when retired sounds great! Now, if I could just retire. Lol I know here in Ohio, last week was hot!

I used to smoke, and it can be very hard to stop. I truly believe people get addicted to sugar, and I'm probably one of them. I'm constantly craving something sweet to eat. Wasn't like that years ago, but the older I get, the harder it is to stay away from sweets. I heard doritos spent either millions or billions of dollars last year trying to find the right ingredients that would cause people to crave it. Basically trying to get people addicted to their snack. Now, that's second-hand information, so I don't know if it's true or not.

Thanks. As you heard in the video, I'd drop plans for a ride, too. Thanks for watching

You should! A lot of great riding here for sure.

Does the sundowner sit you up any higher than stock?

@@motorcycleden quite honestly I couldn’t tell you as I never used the stock seat. I had a 2 thousand dollar credit when I bought the bike and had the sundowner installed prior to me picking up the bike. I have as of yet taken any long trips but prior to doing so I will install a backrest so that may improve my experience.

@Rick92153 I love the harley backrest on our bike. It's the one with the cylinder which allows for the perfect adjustment.

It's one of our favorite states to visit

That is a small concern for me, too. I think they'd do a decent job of holding up unless you're sliding on your hands for an extended length. Hopefully, I don't have to find out.

Thanks!

Sorry to hear that happened to you guys. It makes no sense to me why a deer does that, but we watched one run clear across a golf course and intentionally hut the side of a van. Had to scared the people in the vehicle. It was a big buck and crushed the side of the van in. Glad to hear you got another bike and I'm sure you're extremely alert watching for deer.

That's awesome! Thanks for all the tips.

@@motorcycleden , Natchez Trace Harley also has T-shirts with the entire map of the Natchez Trace on the back. They are 18 miles east on 72 in Tuscumbia, AL

@@Dave-sw2dm I want to get one next time we're down that way!

Our FOB doesn't have any buttons either. The pager I purchased for the alarm does, though. The alarm itself is silent (at least on the later models). Now Harley makes you purchase the siren if you want it, and it works in conjunction with the alarm. It's my understanding that once the FOB is close enough to the bike, the alarm will stop.
