I don't have the money or inclination to upgrade anything on my bike but I still watched the entire video. Well done. Great music and good energy. Now I want a new bike so I can play with you guys and get some new upgrades. :)
Thanks Clint. Adding on can put a dent in the pocket book, but man it’s fun. Lol. We’re now approaching the release of all the 2021 models which leads to temptation, and temptation leads to...well, you know. Let’s ride.
I got a 20' roadglide limited with a131, it came with heat deflectors and in 95 degree Texas heat i gotta throw my leg up on the highway pegs at stop lights 🤣, it gets haaaawt lol. The seat (from my experience) is such a personal thing, my brother and i are just a couple inches different in height but the seat and bars on our bikes are wildly different lol.
Good vid. You've inspired me to go get the engine heat deflectors as I gear up for a run on my 05 Road King to Sturgis and back from Ohio. I didn't know they existed until I checked out this video, so thanks. I checked out the ones on Amazon and the reviews were pretty terrible due to no instructions and completely useless hardware. Gonna go and get the Kuryakyn ones for $20 more from either J&P or Revzilla.
I too ride a RGS and am also 6'-3". I agree with everything you just said. So far I'm 4 for 6 on your list. Suspension is next on the list. Hoping to do it in the next few weeks. I did Yaffe 12" bars, Avon grips, Kuryakyn mini boards for highway pegs, Memphis Shades 8.5" smoke windshield and ASR seat by Ciro 3D. Love all of it. Still haven't done the air deflectors. Don't know why not. After suspension upgrade, which will probably be Russ Wernimont RS-1 shocks, I'm looking at doing a cam upgrade. Then it might be time to stop playing with it. But probably not!
Hey man. All great choices. How do you like that ASR seat? I’ve been thinking about it. You’ll absolutely love the suspension upgrade. I too went with a Stage 2 system with the torque cam. Other than the Stage 2, the suspension has been my favorite addition. As always, thank you for watching and ride safe.
@@FullThrottleHOG I really like the ASR seat. I've got about a 1000 miles on it with a couple of all day rides and have no complaints. Nice and narrow at the tank, let's me sit deep on the bike. I got the backrest too so I can sit back cruise for hours. I've got a question for you on your helmet setup. I have a modular bandit and I'm thinking of getting the Sena 10c Evo which it looks like you're using. How's the audio quality for music? The bandit isn't the quietest helmet (it is the coolest though) and I have been thinking of doing the stage two audio upgrade but if I can get good sounding music in my helmet and get the benefit of a built in camera for a lot less money that might be the right move. I have no communication setup in my helmet right now and have never used any so I have no idea how good it is. And video reviews are mixed. Thanks, Dave
Hey Dave, Yeah, the Bandit is loud for sure. As far as the 10C EVO, if I had to do it over again, and needed a camera, I would go with the 10C Pro. The picture quality is better IMO. The EVO is very contrasty, and difficult to color grade. Additionally, at this time, you cant shoot with any other picture profile. I know the pro does not shoot in 4k, but rather 2.7k, but Id prefer the better video performance. As far as sound quality, SENA has just released new HD headphones I wanna pick up. The sound stock is okay, but again, If i did it all over again, and didn't need a camera, I would probably go with another brand that already developed HD headphones like, CARDO. I will always choose to have music in my helmet vs blasting music through the speaker system. Furthermore, its kinda nice to be able to make and answer phone calls with the system. As soon as I get the upgraded speakers for my SENA I will do a review. Hope this info helps.
I’m with you 100% on all the upgrades but I would include a seventh and that is fork to inserts I have the legend Axios but there are other brands and I love them huge difference and handling cornering and breaking
I know my 2020 FLHCS isn't really a touring model(Harley think so)...but every bit of buffeting comes from under the bike.With stock windshield its bad and if you spread your legs....holy shit is it terrible. Highway pegs are a no go if you don't want your teeth rattled out of your head.Lower fork deflectors worked great for me.....had to modify the ones off.my 2008 to fit....but its a hell of a difference.
Add all that crap you like, when you get to 0-60 in 2.5 sec,0-100 in 6 seconds and can run a 10.20 1/4 mile you MIGHT be ready to pull up beside my stock fjr with 150,000 miles.
Great video! And yes, that seat upgrade was a must!
My most critical 6: Bars, seat, rear suspension, windscreen, all LED lights / more lights for visibility and highway pegs.
Great points. Thanks for watching.

I like and changed the grips to the soft foam grips. I live in Alaska and our roads are like back country roads for you guys in lower 48!
Got my dreams set on a RGL so my upgrade wishlist is slightly different but thanks for the video from an experienced perspective.

Very cool. I appreciate you watching. They make a big difference. Ride safe. 🤙🏻

Do you have a video that talks about vests and patches?
I would add more lights and slip on exhaust

But, at the end of the day, it’s not a Harley.
Maybe some gloves?
