If you can't afford a Harley it is ok to not comment. That is all most people can complain about. Overall that Street Glide is a sweet ride. Love the color!
I finally bought my first new bike, and im a broke dude. But if you save and trade in that hunk of junk, you can do it. Now its harder to upgrade my bike more than affording to ride. Like all my old bikes "used" they all came with pipes and a bunch of other stuff that now Im not going to do for a wile. Not saying its a bad thing, just going to take longer.
I bought a new 2017 Street Glide Special last July and I looked around at Indians, Victory's and the Metric baggers but the Harley wasn't the most expensive. The Indian was far and away more expensive than the Harley! I always thought Harley's were so expensive but they're competitively priced!
TheGeorgia16 fan I bought my 2017 chieftain indian for 22000 out the door for 0 percent interest if Harley could have came close to that I could maybe agree with that statement. But I was not paying 7 percent interest.
I like that the only thing Harley riders say is "you just can't afford it." So because you paid twice the price your bike is better lmfao bunch of morons.
OHHH BABY!!!!! I have been looking at a 2018 Bonneville Salt Denim SG and just rolled across this while going through your old videos. This makes me want to pull the trigger even more.
Implementing new bikes is the best things you guys have done.... The mixture of the older models with the new is going to be beneficial....Your subscribers and subscriptions is going to shoot up.. Watch and see..
just rented this bike the other day with Eaglerider. Probably one of the best bike experiences ive ever had. It was super windy when I rode it too and the bike still felt extremely stable.
all those fairings are acquired taste but i need speakers and the road glide has a weird fairing and weird double lights. I guess i like the road king but i need sound and nav occasionally.
I love the bike and have been tempted to go and get one. On the other hand every bike I have owned I have paid off cash or traded plus cash. I can’t see myself paying that price when I can get another bike that can come reasonably close to it for half the price. New victory bikes have some crazy discounts and they promised parts for 10 years.
I like the street glides but be honest...how reliable are they? I had a Honda CBR and it never just crapped out for whatever reason. Am I going to have to tighten or fix something every 500 miles?
The exhaust needs to be changed out and handle bars for taller riders had had to hunch over to ride switched my 2014 sg to 10” mini apes and perfect ride
I've noticed that with new Harley bikes. I kinda wish they'd just sell the damn things without exhaust systems seeing as everyone changes them out anyways. It's save people some money..
Srkcycles cool, great video, I hope you got to ride a few more models. As you know the challenge living up north (I’m in Maryland) is finding a weather break or traveling to get in some rides during the winter. Ride safe!
I have an older street glide and love it! But I do like the riders triangle of the road glide better but the street glide looks better. Its a tough decision between the 2
He's tall probably why haha. I am shorter, but do sometimes hop on the right side. I usually just get on whichever side of the bike I happen to be at when I reach it haha. I have to kind of hop a little bit to keep from racking myself on my Vmax though. Probably looks ridiculous to bystanders haha.
Constructive criticism here bro. Like the channel and I am subscribed but bro you gotta learn how to video without jerking the viewage around. You gotta smooth things out man. Other than that good video man.
I just traded a 07 Ultra for a 2012 Street Glide and it has a 103 the 07 has a 96, lot more power and smooth! It has the throttle by wire lot more responsive than the throttle cables
Exactly why I don`t like the new 107, after my test drive last year I came to the same conclusion: It does feel more like a Honda than a Harley! I ride my Harley evo because it doesn`t feel like other bikes and has the heart and soul of a though bred, and also incredibly reliable. Certainly this is a refined Harley and will appeal to many, just not this 60 year old at this time!
I stopped caring whether others dress for the slide. Their choice, they're old enough to know what's good for them. I only care when they give poor advice to new riders. I know I'd like to get back on a bike after an accident as soon as possible, whether that's right away, or after it's been fixed or replaced.
Wasn't a good test ride as you had no interstate time. I do own one, If you are less than 190lbs, the suspension is poor as there is no suspension sag with rider even with rear shock is adjusted to the lowest/softest level..this means the suspension is greatly compromised. I also find that gloss painted inner fairing on the Specials gives an annoying reflection back to the rider..Be sure to understand of the 2018-2019 oil pump and sumping issues before you buy.
I love the look of a Street Glide or Road Glide riding by, but from a rider's perspective, nothing beats the Road King sans windshield. I loved my 2018 Industrial Gray Denim Road King Special. It's gone now, but I'm gonna get a new one. Been eyeing the 2020 Road Glide Special in Patriot Red/White, but decided to go for the Road King in River Rock Gray Denim, because the other colors are not my thing. Loved last year's Bonneville Salt Denim and Midnight Blue, but this year the colors are meh. RRGD is the best of the mehs. Could also wait until they announce the 2021 colors in November, but I prefer to be riding before next spring.
There is a reason why they make all kinds of bikes,some like the Harleys some like others,just like Mustangs and Cameros,an a few people like Chryslers.
I didn't realize street glides were that new haha. I thought Harley had made them for years. Interesting. I never have had much interest in Harley myself though. They just don't make a bike that suits me.
I don’t know how much this bike costs in US but in Finland HD and Indians are very expensive. I believe this model is almost 50k euros or even more. I mean you need to be a real fan of Harley to accept that price for this bike. Obviously I am not a fan because any other manufacturer offers a lot more bike for much reasonable price for me. But as a sales person I absolutely admire HD for their branding strategy. There is no other bike manufacturer who is even close to them in that sense. Some weeks ago I had chance to test softale flde deluxe and it was ok but nothing extraordinarily. But again it is 30k Euro bike in Finland and I just keeping to compare it with others, doesn’t make sense to go with Harley. I guess Harley is the matter of soul that you might have or not have, obviously I just don’t have enough of it. I like the look and sound of this model. 👍👌
I am sorry BUT I do not like this look on a HD. There is too much stuff up front and the motorcycle is starting to take on the appearance of a maxi-scooter. I would feel too much like a MOD riding this Harley. Triumph is doing it better than Harley these days, still this Harley is better than an Indian so that's something I suppose.
You sound as if you are into technology.All you see is a radio, navigation so you never have to stop to read a map or ask people where to turn. , and cruise control.
Look I like your videos. I like the funny way that they are presented. I appreciate the idea of a youtube ride before making a sale. It is all good good good and if I lived in the USA I would probably buy a motorcycle off you. I just said that I did not like the funny bat wing thingo on the front of this Harley. At 65 years old I suppose that I am stuck back in the era of naked H-D's and am kicking at the modern fashions. Most other modern bikes look like something out of a star wars movie as uncomfortable pieces of BS. I just bought a new bike and had a hell of a time just getting something that I consider even looks like a motorcycle should look. Give me an uncluttered naked Road King any day. This is a representation of what a real motorcycle should look like. PS do you deliver into Australia. ruclips.net/video/m-ntnftPG0Y/видео.html
Not my video, just saying tech can be a good thing sometimes.It can be a pain to have to ride through side streets in a state you never been, do to a highway closer, and get lost.

I agree Freddie!

I agree with Solomon. Mixing in some new rides along with your inventory of pre-owned bikes will keep your subs watching. Well done!
I thought it had a woodgrain dash at first, then I realize it 's the reflection off your jacket. Woodgrain would be spectacular.
I'm a fan of the road glide ! Had a tour glide in the 90s and loved it
just rented this bike the other day with Eaglerider. Probably one of the best bike experiences ive ever had. It was super windy when I rode it too and the bike still felt extremely stable.
So after riding both what's your opinion between the Street Glide special or the Indian Chieftain?
all those fairings are acquired taste but i need speakers and the road glide has a weird fairing and weird double lights. I guess i like the road king but i need sound and nav occasionally.
That's a masterpiece!
I love the bike and have been tempted to go and get one. On the other hand every bike I have owned I have paid off cash or traded plus cash.

You were on my dream bike. But I'll be happy with the purple Dyna! LOL. Good job.
I like the street glides but be honest...how reliable are they? I had a Honda CBR and it never just crapped out for whatever reason. Am I going to have to tighten or fix something every 500 miles?
I love the Street Glide. Pure Harley
Great Review man! Matt Laidlaw has the same SG
I'm going to check them out in Palm Bay this weekend
Are they automatic or manual
If I had the money and was in a Harley dealer I would buy same color street glide. That looks awesome
The exhaust needs to be changed out and handle bars for taller riders had had to hunch over to ride switched my 2014 sg to 10” mini apes and perfect ride
I've noticed that with new Harley bikes. I kinda wish they'd just sell the damn things without exhaust systems seeing as everyone changes them out anyways. It's save people some money..
How long hv you bin riding
Where are we test riding this bike? It does not look like PA. It looks like the streets where Blockhead test rides in Orlando.
you sir are correct this is blockheads turf,
Srkcycles cool, great video, I hope you got to ride a few more models. As you know the challenge living up north (I’m in Maryland) is finding a weather break or traveling to get in some rides during the winter. Ride safe!
I have an older street glide and love it! But I do like the riders triangle of the road glide better but the street glide looks better. Its a tough decision between the 2
Nice video man. Which cam are you using? Details please
60,000 miles of smiles on my 2018 SGS. My next big install? A Wilber’s suspension system. The stock suspension is OK but overall, weak.
If you don't mind me asking, how tall are you? You look like you're in my height range and wonder how comfortable you were on that Street Glide
He's 6'2
Is this bike more powerful than the kawasaki Vaquero???
Never saw anybody get on a bike from the right side but you seem to mount up like that all the time. Any reason? Just wondering
I get on from the right sometimes
I mount from the right side too. Kept getting scolded at the motorcycle safety course. Not sure why it matters though.
I always get on from the right side. Cops mount from the right side too.
He's tall probably why haha. I am shorter, but do sometimes hop on the right side. I usually just get on whichever side of the bike I happen to be at when I reach it haha. I have to kind of hop a little bit to keep from racking myself on my Vmax though. Probably looks ridiculous to bystanders haha.
Cops mount from right because when on the side of the road the bike is between you and traffic.
I’m so not sure if I want the Streetglide or Roadglide...
Constructive criticism here bro. Like the channel and I am subscribed but bro you gotta learn how to video without jerking the viewage around. You gotta smooth things out man. Other than that good video man.
I just traded a 07 Ultra for a 2012 Street Glide and it has a 103 the 07 has a 96, lot more power and smooth! It has the throttle by wire lot more responsive than the throttle cables
Awesome vids man
Aw that white is exactly what I want!
What’s the price?
I see your test Riding in Orlando,Fla
you should do a review of the 2018 heritage 114
thats a great idea

no gloves + accident = No motorbikes anymore for the rest of your life...
I stopped caring whether others dress for the slide. Their choice, they're old enough to know what's good for them. I only care when they give poor advice to new riders. I know I'd like to get back on a bike after an accident as soon as possible, whether that's right away, or after it's been fixed or replaced.
At first I thought global warming had made it's way to Penn. and you guys now had palm trees. But then I recognized Blockheads test ride route.
Wasn't a good test ride as you had no interstate time. I do own one, If you are less than 190lbs, the suspension is poor as there is no suspension sag with rider even with rear shock is adjusted to the lowest/softest level..this means the suspension is greatly compromised.

If they said ride anything you want I would tried for the CVO Road Glide.

PA looks like the fucking Yukon at the moment so I was confused for a second when I saw this video pop up.

Metric are almost as much as a hd unless u get a cvo...
Wish he would have answered, White.
It’s not white go to a dealer and take it out in Sun light really a great color
First denim color I would consider the gloss is amazing
It's white!!!!
@@vincentmcclain6642 Bonneville salt denim is one of the most beautiful colors Harley has offered
New bike smell?!? Lmao!
Nice bike price not ok.
I love the look of the bike BUT... that fairing is just so big and ugly man I don’t think I could get over it.
Who would buy old dross like hd
and this bike is only
32,000,000,000 $
all good harley finances 10,000 month loans
lol
Only 😁
ahmed z no lol. Just bought mine for 27,000 😆😆😆
Brad, good choice. Very pretty bike.
I hope you enjoy it for years to come.

Love street glides and road glides but I love my Vaquero 1700 better lol
i have fallen in love with many a vaquero
Im thinking about getting either the vaquero or a road glide in a few months but i cant decide!!!
3rd
"Feels like a Honda bike?". 👎👎
Honestly, HD doesn't reallly impress anymore. Way over priced for what you get.
That’s one ugly motorcycle, motorcycles should be small and nimble...
