    THE PCH IS A BUCKET LIST RIDE FOR ME!

    That was my old daily commute, San Clemente to Crystal Cove, a 2015 Slim in Superior Blue, sadly it was run over in the Trader Joe's parking lot in 2017. Seriously thinking of replacing it with a vivid black one.
    Currently rolling my beloved R1100S.

    Jealous! You have all the toys. Great video. I'd be scared that the drone would never come back or crash into the sea, but it gets some superb footage. I'd do a video of a trip to cold wet Mersea Island here in the UK, but I don't think it would compare well.

I`m from the UK and last May I came to the States hired a 2017 Heritage Classic and rode HWY1 from San Francisco to LA. I`ll never ever forget the experience. Great weather great scenery and a road made for cruising. Just wish I`d worn a helmet cam. I look forward to you doing a mini tour from say Daly City to maybe Monterey or maybe Cayucus to Malibu. Nice Street Glide Special.

    FAA supposed to crack down on drones by requiring those at a certain size and above to be registered and marked like a plane. Doesn't make sense because ultra glide air craft sort of follows the same rule as motorized scooters in the sense that you don't need an endorsement 150 cc s or lower. But above your required to. The drone issue is due to the popularity of the ones that are bigger than say a serving tray

    Matt beautiful bike. Congrats! So here is a question to a guy that knows all these bikes very well - I tested both SG and RG recently, I liked the looks and the ride on the SG. Only every dealer I went around here totally trashed street glides “oh the wind” this and that but I din’t feel a thing. I actually felt SG to be lighter and gave me more frontend feel. Maybe since I ride a dyna I don’t mind a little shake but would like a honest opinion which one to get. Is wind really a factor when considering a SG? I do go on long trips and often ride 80+ mph . I’m 6.2 and I was SUPER comfortable on the SG with the 12” monkey bars.

    Nice bike, I have concerns that a bike like the Street Glide on any Harley that has the forward controls because of my bad back and my tailbone that is very fragile. Can you put mid controls on these bikes and if you do will you be able to absorb the bumps thru your legs like my FZ09.
    I live in Costa Mesa and cops will not ticket these street racer V8 cars and trucks with stock car loud pipes, and I want to go and stick a potato up their exhaust.
