Not tired of the builds, I am still diggin them :-)
Matt , that Thunderheader says “ I’m here ! “ Jed has got a very nice scoot , well laid out !
Now this is my kind of bike. Nice build! That fairing has really grown on me on these M8s.
Never get tired of the fxrt styling Matt. Just needs the fxrt baggs to complete
The integrated turn signals are excellent! Totally cleans up the front. The cops siren 🚨 was GOLD! Like here we go another ticket for our boy Matt 😬 but not today 😎... we good!!!
I definitely feel you should shoot some of the older bikes in the collection, a lot of the M8s and touring bikes a similar in terms of ride. I wanna see you post about some of the older bikes and how they compare to today’s bikes etc.
Bro.... you living in the past!
I understand where He's coming from,,,the new bikes ARE pretty similar,but you have to understand,,Laidlaws sells NEW bikes,,,so there you go...I have me a custom 2020 RGS W/ 131 and a 2020 custom sport glide,,almost the same as above,,love both of them!!
George Ash only reason I recommend he do videos on some older bikes is cause the family have a collection of old bikes which would be cool to see. It’s content after all. He’s done videos on almost all of the new M8’s. I own an 18 Fat Bob so I liked watching them but he asked for suggestions on new content. It doesn’t hurt to see some classics.
@@iancrandall9803 Agreed!!
Hopefully with the new CEO making big changes and sales driven he will notice what is going on in the industry. Harley could take the sport glide, which is the original name of the first FXRT, and place the FXRT fairing on it instead of the Rick Doss fairing from the early 90's. The only other things it would need is dual disk in the front and different wheels. That would be a great platform to start a build with for less than $20k. Maybe they will listen to the dealers and the public, and see what everyone is asking for. Not everyone wants a big dresser with all the weight.
There’s nothing like seeing a custom bike similar to your own being reviewed by Matt 🤙🏽
Love your work buddy, keep it up!
After watching tons of your (always excellent) review videos, I wonder why Harley allows $$$ to flow to competitors. If suspension upgrades are THAT noticeable, and many folk do at least the rears, HD should offer a suspension stage 1 (rear) and stage 2 (front and rear) and install the good stuff at the factory. Or release a CVO version with better suspension?
I think every make and model I’ve ever ridden could benefit from suspension, most of them much more than the new softails. The new softails actually have really good stock suspension. Theres a couple KTM dirt bikes that I wouldn’t upgrade suspension on. Anyways unless the price tag is way up there all bikes have room for improvement. Most the bikes I feature on my channel are scenarios where the owners spared no expense and went “all-in” in different aspects of the customization. The way this bike feels going down the freeway is better than just about any stock bike out there except maybe if you went to a Goldwing or other full dresser. Then you’re buying a “touring” bike. Any mid-size cruiser in the world, this bike is going to have a far superior ride. So comparing stock to stock in its class no one is better.
What I would like to see is HD go to the extreme with a CVO performance bagger and do like full Ohlins with an inverted front end etc.
Hi Matt, Amazing builds. I have a low rider S and would like to live close to a dealership like you to customize my bike. You guys represent the direction Harley should go. Congrats and thank you for the great content.
Never gets old if these builds still looking forward to get my fairing for my lowrider s 2020
Very nice bike. That style has really grown on me and you can never go wrong with a black bike. Thanks Matt for sharing.
Thanks Clint
I’ve thought about trading in my 18 Fat Bob for a Low Rider S, this one is pretty cool!
Man I want that FXRT fairing for the FXLRS!!!!!!
satchelSCROLL I can’t afford to have 2 but I wish I could! I love my Fat Bob but I love the larger tank on the low rider.
satchelSCROLL i do love my fat bob, I’ve put over 25k miles on her in the last two years no issues at all.
Fat bob is also sick.
@@ntdfmaverick ...Torn between the two myself.
Smart upgrades/ specs! Modern day FXR, for sure! ⚡️
Lol the fairing didn’t make the FXR, the frame did. This bike looks kinda cool but that’s about it, that bike handles like shit compared to the one and only FXR!
I know. I ride an ‘85 FXRP and ‘86 FXRS... but this Lowrider S is the closest they’ve come so far to the FXR. I have to admit that you have to get upgraded suspension and drivetrain to be able to still beat this model. I wouldn’t mind having this bike alongside my two babies! 🤘🏻
I don’t think I can get tired of your builds . In my opinion you guys are still the kings. 👑
Really dig it man. Your videos always inspired me, and I'm happy to say it's been 3 years now since I've had a 02' Dyna Low Rider. Happy with it but always thinking on what's next, this setup always caught my eye
Hey Brad, they got your pegs on here! Killer bike! Now to remove all the truck bed liner spray-on black from the trees, primary, and fender struts.
You guys are still the “ KINGS” .
Thanks ! 👑
Looking for a Road King Special ST Video ! Thanks Matt! Love the videos!
Well there is no Road King ST but I posted a road king special video recently.
What would be nice once in a while is showing a vintage bike and how I'm it's time had something new coming out on it's year . Maybe compare the bike to today's bike just to show how things have come along . I still ride my shovelhead to this day and I compare it to newer bikes . Still appreciating the older bikes and newer making advancements over the years .
I’ve bough 3 bikes from Laidlaws! Still have them all! Next one is a Tri-Glide.. best dealership I’ve ever done business with hands down!!
Id love to see an old early 80's fxr with a built motor
May have you already have done a build but a Road King set up with those bars and fairing would look great.
Awesome bike, I dig this style! Those bars were a sweet choice as well. Would’ve loved to hear the sound of the speakers but I understand the copyright bs.
Older bikes too, Hell yes! Custom, Classic, Vintage, I enjoy seeing them all. Grab an original Sportster and a new Sporty and run a comparison. I like your ride videos too where you have a destination and some sweet roads to get there.
I wish i would have demo’ed the speakers. It never really reflects the true capability in a video though.
Matt Laidlaw True. Someday they’ll have a small action camera that will capture sound and scenery well, doing them justice.
Great choice with Thunderheader. 2nd choice would've been D&D.. and great choice with Westcoast Tbars. Def the best 🤘
Classic, stripped-down builds would be SICK... at least until the new models come out... if we ever make it to 2021~ Absolutely enjoy your vlogs Matt! Thank you!🤘🏿🤙🏿
Jed’s got a nice FXR!
I like to see bike walk around/explanations, and exhaust clips, but I’m a big nerd. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I'm a 19 Street Glide owner and love it! That bike is nice too I'm just more of a bagger fan.
Keep these custom bike builds coming! Harley has never built better bikes and these custom builds show exactly why H-D remains #1.
Thank you!
Love to see more performance bagger builds. Loving my Softail street bob at the moment but will definitely get into the bagger world in a few years 👌🏼
Love this bike! Have a Fat Bob 114 but not comfortable on long rides or easy in the city (office near DTLA) . Rented a Heritage this past week for a ride to Joshua Tree. Still not what I'm looking for. Felt like I was riding "Dad's" bike... I think this may be it. Will test ride soon .... Love your vids!
Lovin the builds, keep them coming! "Block Head " just did the 131 kit on his. Dyno with S/E tuner. Now switching over to the Thundermax tuner.
The clear advantage of a bike like this is its versatility.
The fact that it looks amazing is secondary to its functionality in the city as well as longer freeway riding which are equally important for those of us living in the metropolitan areas of California.
What’s taking HD so long to sell these off the showroom floor?
I love it. Would love to see some builds on the FXST 2020.
Great bike! That fairing should be standard (or at least an option from Harley) on a softtail.
I agree you pay that kind of money for a Harley and you have to spend a fortune to get it right or at least the way you like it and perform better Harley should see this other manufacturers are doing it better suspension better seats better handlebars the new road glide handlebars are ridiculous!
Love the S. cracks me up when he said you hook up and put it in your pocket lol. My indian does all that from factory. Harley is tanking for a reason.
I’d love to see a mint ‘42 Knucklehead in action.
Not at all tired of these, haha, at all! Looks awesome with that taller rear suspension. Looks appropriate. Almost makes me think I'm looking at an FXR. And also, nice to see the new Thunderheader on one. I hear the new ones are really awesome! Thanks.
Like do something like that for my FXFBS eventually. I would just have a hard time changing out my headlight. It looks badass, and works too well to replace.
I’m diggin the fxrt club style on the 18-21 road king special. So damn good!!!
I'm a huge fan of the Low Rider in general. If something were to happen to my FXDL I would almost certainly replace it with another Low Rider but on the Softail frame this time. I'm not Dyna-stalgic if the newest platform is better in almost every way! If I had the flow I would consider the Low Rider S but I'd probably throw some paint on it just to switch it up. Maybe some Performance Green! I know it's not an H-D color yet but it doesn't hurt to throw it out there! Keep up the great work man, appreciate what you do over there on the other coast
Never get tired of seeing these bikes! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I really look forward to these test rides , I thought they finally caught you on the run . Good one !! I always learn something new on upgrades I didn't know about . That freeway can be crazy on a motorcycle ! A test ride on the older Low Riders would be fun to see . Thanks
Hey Matt, would live to see a build out of an older road glide say a 2012, 2013 before fairing was change and maybe pros and cons over the old to the new with project Rushmore. I know there were major improvements to the road glide fairing but I see the stunt riders going old style as well as others still going back to the old over the new style so would love to see an build, what you would change and thoughts for sure. Cheers!
Matt we are waiting for HD’s new direction.
Coming
The new direction is called "Rewire" ; which includes asking shareholders to vote for cash bonus's for the new CEO and board members...
Now, I am pretty sure Matt does not do this, but I believe most other dealers do this.

@Nightingale It is unfortunate. Sturgis is over, and we coming into the fall and winter seasons. Many dealers are scrambling for inventory, which may not show up until summer of next year..... In the meantime, many dealers are asking for forbearance on paying their rent for very expensive store-front. Is no secret, the "whole company" as you say, is carrying over 9 billion in debt, and no clear path forward to pay it back..... We are seeing Chapter 11 for HD in 2021.....
@Nightingale I walked into an HD dealership in nor cal bay area. They were asking 30 grand for 2003 Springer. Looked like a fire sale to me.......
@Nightingale laughing at what ?
I have a built 2020 LRS, 131, Memphis Shades fairing, custom paint TBR pipe etc etc, also have a CVO and have to sell one bike. I do not tour much and haul a bike around with me in my 5th wheel and do short rides, day trips etc or commute to work. I am thinking of selling my CVO and doing some more upgrades on my LRS with a RWD fairing, killer sound system and Sportglide bags. My LRS is fun with the 131 and enjoy the hell out it. So I am thinking this maybe the bike to keep and have a really cool built/custom bike.
Right now, after watching this..im hoping HD don't leave the Indian market 🙏🏼
Love my 2015 fxdl but I have to admit that I am a little jelly. Bad ass build.
Very nice bike, really like the integrated turn signals in mirrors and tail light, gives it nice clean look.
Hey Matt, regarding recommendations on your videos, I wouldn't change anything, excellent holistic story telling in all of your videos.
I just upgraded from Iron 1200 to the low rider s, this thing is a monster, I love it
Haha good to know. We are always trying to make the videos better and not entertaining. Congrats on the FXLRS. Enjoy.
Love to see a Laidlaws history video. Maybe there is one and I haven’t seen it?
Check out my Podcast episode 3 with Bob Laidlaw. I think it's exactly what you're looking for.
I would love to see some older bikes. I like them all really. I especially love my dyna.
Love this set up. Every thing about this bike screams me!!
Waiting for a 131ci Softail built series. Awesome video 👍🏽
Hey Matt I love the videos. That springer patch is the shyte!! I have that tattooed on my chest. Where can I get one of those? I'll put you up in my house in Daytona if you bring me one. You can ride the springer while here
Love the newer builds as well as classic bikes, definitely mix it up. Great upload as always.
Nice. Nice looking Pike it amazes me this day and time how people buy new bike then put that much money into it to make it actually go and handle just my opinion
The suspension was about the only parts that he added to make it handle better although I would argue a lot more has to do with ride comfort. The fairing actually adds weight. The stock bike handles very well and has really good power. This bike will spank just about any any cruiser in its class - stock. The parts were added for style, function, sound, ergonomics, comfort, and even more performance than it already had.
Some guys get to have all the fun!!!
My favorite HD hands down, but I like the Memphis Shades road warrior fairing over this one imo. That, and a set of Sport Glide bags will be my build.
Matt you're getting too good at editing these videos, i said dam this guy got another ticket.
By the way sick bike kudos on with the thunder
Freaking legend man. Makes me want my low rider back....
Love the videos lately, but would love to see some FXR builds
Rad bike. FYI those Whiplash seats are rebranded C&C seats. Nothing against them but you can get the same exact seat minus the Whiplash logo and for $50 less by ordering direct from C&C. I have one and love it much better than the Saddlemen step up.
Great vid Matt, nice looking bike, maybe you could do an older Harley, like an old style Road King classic, thanks bro.
What a fantastic built...never get tired of seeing these converted FXRT fairing bikes..I know MoCo is going to reduce the number of models by 30%, but if they were smart they should convert the Sport Glide by replacing the worthless batwing mini fairing into am FXRT one...anyway got 2 questions...did Thuderheader change the design of their header for the M8s? and do you think the Low Rider S is the most popular model because of it's price point and what you get for your $$ (dual from discs, inverted front end, etc..)?
Very nicely done👌
Essa moto é monstruosa! Espero que ela chegue aqui no Brasil! 🇧🇷 ótimo vídeo!
Love the builds. You gonna do anything with the 2021 FXBBS? Would love to see what you do with the Deadwood Green.
One of the nicest I’ve seen!!! Great job Bad Ass suspension is worth it’s weight in Gold!! People if you get a new bike get suspension First it’s one of the Best mods you can do to the Bike!! Great Bike I’d like to try it!👍💯🇺🇸😎
I’m down to see some old choppers but not if it means less of these builds!!
Great videos! Been wanting to swap out my batwing to the FXRT fairing since seeing your Coast Glide. And of course MX bars too! There has to be a way to put it on an 09 FLHT :) Very nice LRS build
I have a Whiplash Gambler seat on my Dyna. And love it.!!
By far my favorite bike that you have featured!!🤘🤘
Thank you!
super nice bike. i love the look. i have a 2018 heritage and think about shocks. looking at ohlins though. bought some for my sportster and it was night and day. i do like the softails for sure. just quicker than the baggers just being much heavier. i am looking at a new road glide and keeping the heritage. i live in florida or i would get one there. would be cool to sort of see one showing off your service department and some of the guys. whatever you do dont do one on burnouts. i hate that crap. shesssh.
I’m super glad he could read the manual
Love your videos, Matt. Been looking at breaking into the softail family here soon ... Would love a video of the Softail Slim S.
Nick did a nice review video of the slim recently that's here on the channel. He just bought one
I just saw you said Slim S. They don't make the "S" version anymore but I did a few videos on it when it was new in 2016
If the MoCo made something like this it would sell like hotcakes. Beautiful bike CEO. Throw a small black chin spoiler on it and it would look even better.
Holy crap. What a bike
You guys Nailed itAwesome buildTake care Matt
Great build and great video! ... wish Harley would make the fairing a factory option but it’s not like they have the rights to the design or have a slow selling Sport Glide model which could be used build a modern take on the FXRT ... 🤷♂️
Hey Matt Laidlaw love the content, man. Drop a link on the gloves you wear in the test rides. They’re sick
Get tired of custom Harley builds??? Are you insane??!! Keep'em coming Matt!
Haha. Sorry dumb question. I’ll keep them coming.
Build a 99-05 performance bagger
Nice video Matt love to have bike like that
Video production a step up. Nice work showcasing.
Thank you!
Awesome bike Jed!
Thanks!
Love it! What do you think about adding the quick detach hard bags to this build??
Great vid Matt. Love the club style look and I’m still debating whether to change my ‘08 Fat Bob into one or get a Road Glide. Anyway, I would love to see a triple comparison: OG FXR club style modded out vs. Dyna club style modded out vs softail club style modded out. I think it would be interesting to compare them all with similar mods and have a “panel” vote for their favorite. Maybe guys at the shop? I’m sure they’d all sell quickly once finished and compare done. JUST DO IT!
That would be cool. If I can get those bikes all in the same place I’ll try to do that
Matt Laidlaw build them!
Another thought: Can he get more height out of the front suspension? It looks like the tubes are mounted low in the tree. I know it's partially the large end caps. I have Legend Axeos on my Dyna.
the fairing kinda reminds me of that one eyed character on Monsters Inc.
Would love to see a street Bob or Softail standard build
Good to know. I'll jump at the opportunity to feature more of those models.
This is a great looking sound machine ! Nice to see .
Thanks for letting us know an approximate price on putting an FXRT together
Hey Matt! Love your content. Watch it all the time-sometimes over n over again. QUICK QUESTION- I see that you rev-match when you down shift gears.. is that really necessary?! I ride a 2020 FXLRS here in India. Always been curious about rev-matching🤔
Great build - Thank You!
Love these dyna builds! Gets me stoked for mine!!
Softail
The Dyna looked better.
@@splodge5714 yeah im used to seeing the rear shocks
This my fav build on the FXLRS so far... looks sick as fuck
Hi Matt, thanks for awesome video of it 💯😎👍🏽
What part numbers are the plugs for the turn signals?
