I actually didn’t even notice the back rest when you pulled up next to me by destination Daytona and I asked if you had any bites for buyers. I’m glad to see your keeping it.
I did the HD rear Olin ,like them so much doing the front Olins . I think a big difference coming from sport bikes and BMW . Front end dives a little with the front break . Also we’re did you get the one on the tank .
Hey man.. I just installed the screaming eagle version on my 21 RGS they are sweet! Loved yours when I seen your install. I love the gold but could put my hands on the SE immediately so grabbed them and honestly up here in the NE my local Harley dealer does an MVP program and with 15% off was a smoking deal. Question, when I installed them I had to adjust them at different lengths to get them to bolt up. I have heard of this that the stock shocks being up to 1/4" different in length. Does not seem to effect anything, I have heard it is common but there is not much online about it.
Good video as always. Think maybe I wouldn't be as turned off with the reservoir location if some effort had been made to "disguise" the tubing. CycleFanatix has the same shocks I believe but tubing to the shocks is definitely more discreet. Don't want to sound like I'm dumping on you or your bike because I like your bike and your videos.
I’m a new subscriber. Love your channel! I’m from Michigan as well and I keep my ‘22 RG CVO up at my place in Gaylord. I’m blessed to be able to ride with my son! I’m looking at the same setup as you and your Dad went with. I’ve been on Ohlins site and it looks like they’re geared mainly for 2-up riding. I never carry a passenger, and I only do day trips with 20 lbs in my saddlebags. With gear, I’m in the 190 range. Just wondering if you could make a recommendation on my situation? Could the Ohlins be dialed in for me? Thanks and I look forward to more great content!
All you guys with SE versions, anyone try to re use them for the ‘24 Road or Street Glide? I’m trying to but it seems the bracket angle won’t allow them to fit! They contact the new taillights. Any solutions? Apparently HD is working on a new bracket and kit?!
I was out there and considered those but was just too busy that day... and still looking at the Legends. A lot of things have been on backorder when you shop online. Still waiting on a part from Arlen Ness to finish up my T-bar set up on the road glide.
I have the SE Ohlins from Harley basically same thing. Difference is awesome but they show how bad the front standard shocks are. So having the Ohlins front shocks being fitted to sort that out lol
Looking at picking up a 2019 RGS in black. What is the main differences between a '19 and '22? Hydraulic clutch for sure but what about the infotainment system?
Now that you've had a chance to ride with the new Ohlin's shocks installed, what is the difference in the ride, including cornering, passenger ride, etc.?
Much more plush, handles the bumps in the road with ease, don't even feel them in the rear, just feel them in the front. Passenger riding is much better. and the bike handles much better around corners as well. You don't feel the rear end wobble anymore around corners..
These shocks were my Christmas gift to my bum!! By far the best shock out there. Same here not sure on that gold reservoir’s. Thinking of getting them wrapped 🤷🏼♂️ to keep that blackout look 👀
have you done the front forks? I did a complete legend set and it was night and day. no matter the brand, 100% better than stock. front end dive is probably 80%-85% better. Ohlins is legit top shelf so congratulations on the purchase
@@DOOWORKMOTORSPORTS yessir. im sure you already know but well worth the investment for a performance bagger. keep putting in that work and ill keep watching
I too am not a fan of them sticking out like that but I do like everything else you've done with your bike - and love your channel. Did you change from a 2-1 pipe to something else?
Thumbs Up! Harleys have really bad stock suspensions and ride like bricks - yes, even the baggers. His statement about the "best investment yet" is truth. I wish I would have bought the Ohlins for front and rear on my 2017 SGS, but I tried the Legend REVO-A shocks on the rear and they were barely better than stock. They definitely were not worth the over $900.00 price tag. First mods on HD should be suspension upgrades, and then exhaust, air breather and a proper dyno tune by a skilled pro. This will greatly improve the bike and your enjoyment of riding the bike - hands down...
You can hide them with different mounts.. I liked the look of these exposed mounts. They don’t get in the way of my docking hardware for my backrest when I use it..
Unless you were riding at your limits for hours or racing it I bet the $1000 ones without the remote reservoir will perform just as good. Save $500 and not have the reservoirs sticking out unless you happen to like the way it looks. Not dogging em I know to each is own.
What about doing a upgrade to the front I still can’t get over the fact that Harley charges all this money for their motorcycles and gives subpar shocks and etc.
They look sick, that’s why I bought the exact same shock two weeks ago. Best of the best for me and my back. Go 044
They look fantastic.

Good to hear . Just got the screaming eagle onlins with reservoir. Gonna install this week . Can’t wait

I'm getting these as soon as I can. Fronts too. I only wish they would be coming to a rally closer to me. I'm in the North East.
I just bought these and for my 22’ Road Glide ST. Can’t wait to feel the difference!
well??

Hi just wanted to say you and your Familys bikes are so well done.
Thank You, Appreciate that!
What did it do to the ride height ? I was really hoping you would compare like previous suspension installed
Love em! What brackets did you use to mount them?
The extended brackets from Ohlins.
Are these the 13” shocks and if they are, are you having any clearance issues with the exhaust and the rear axle nut?
Yes they are, and no clearance issues!

Cycle fanatix has legends, the mounts are different
Yeah, the remote reservoirs aren’t for everyone.. I like the way they look coming off the back like that.
Are you gonna do the front forks ?
Yes, eventually..
Hi, how much do you need to tighten the bolts with a torque wrench? (ft-lb) Nm
Didn’t do anything with the front forks….. I suggest doing something to the front too, it’s so much better!
Planning on it!
I like the shocks if the reservoir could be hidden
Throws the look of the bike off with gold reservoir bottles....

Yes, Ohlins Shocks can be dialed in for your height and weight.

Excellent. I’ll give them a call.

Looks good. How long did it take the pro to install the shocks? What was the installation charge?
20 mins.. Free install when purchased at bike week :)

Yessir! I know right?? Its crazy how much of a difference it made. Planning on doing the front now soon!
@@DOOWORKMOTORSPORTS getting mine done this Wednesday 6th April . looking forward to it
@@glennsands4675 Sweet!
Were those brackets offered in the deal?
Yes!
nice bike! does it have any difference in height?..im not a tall guy im just scared that itight go up way higher.pls let me know.tnx
Yes, it raised the bike 1".. I am only 5'7 and I can touch..
@@DOOWORKMOTORSPORTS thanks
Do the reservoir lines clear a luggage rack on a SGS or RGS?
Yes
Looking at picking up a 2019 RGS in black. What is the main differences between a '19 and '22? Hydraulic clutch for sure but what about the infotainment system?
Infotainment system is the same as well..
Those look sick
I can’t believe it took you this long. 👍 now it’s time for the front😬
How much was your front suspension on the ohlins? Lone star rally coming and I’m wanting front suspension to go along with my rear ohlins
I believe it was around $1,500
Looks very cool
Very sharp!
Can u lower the shocks 1 inch

@@Dirk1961-l7y Thanks for sharing that video, very informative!
Do those brackets for the resivors come with the shocks?
They did when I bought them from the Ohlins booth in Daytona! Not sure if they come with the shocks when you order them online..
I too am not a fan of them sticking out like that but I do like everything else you've done with your bike - and love your channel. Did you change from a 2-1 pipe to something else?
No, I still have my Fuel Moto Jackpot 2 into 1 pipe..

do u have front stock suspension ? hows it react with the stock front end..
Yes, I have stock front suspension still. I will be upgrading to Ohlins in the front soon.
We’re did you get the number 1 for your tank .
Brian at Choice Cycle.
To each there own, but I prefer Legends on my glide. Anything is better than stock. Ride safe brother!
And legends looks better and don't stick way like these do.
But maybe they have different lengths.
Yes they sell different mounts so you can tuck them if you don’t like this look..
I’ve had both and I way now prefer ohlins!! Had legend on 2 of my old bikes. And Wow Ohlins wins by far! So much happier now
Nice suspension! I have the SE versions and they’re great. Ride safe! 2147 Crew…
Love the shocks, but don't care for the reservoirs being mounted on the back. For $1500, I'd want it to be hidden somehow.
Yeah these seem to stick way out more than Legends.
They have a different bracket if you are rocking a tour pack, the reservoirs are tucked a little lower
You can hide them with different mounts.. I liked the look of these exposed mounts. They don’t get in the way of my docking hardware for my backrest when I use it..
Ohlins mounts are a little different than the legends.
agree
