Thanks for actually taking the time to show us the bike. A lot of other channels are just riding the bike as they review it, and you don't really get a good look at it. Great overview of the bike.
Yeah I noticed that as well. I watched one where it was just riding and music. I guess that’s cool to watch but leaves a lot to be desired by those trying to learn about the bike. Thanks for the love.
Great review! You could have ridden it if you wanted too. I just came in from installing a lay down license plate holder on it. The slant flows perfectly with the bags and tail light. My wife Michelle and the Timms staff surprised me with this bike. She knew how bad I wanted this one to sit beside my original ‘87 FXRT.
Are you still happy with your ST? Also do those little wind deflectors me a difference? Thanks and take care.
@@mikeessary4925 100% and yes they do.
@@shovelheadsforever thank you kindly for your reply!
I just ordered one in black. I traded in my 2018 114 Fat Bob, I wanted the fairng & bags along with the bigger tank, but I wanted the performance and handling that the softail has versus the touring chassis. The only thing that sucks is I have to wait for it to come in.
Mine should be in next week. I've been waiting 4 and a half months and you're right, it sucks.
Im pre-ordering a 2023 ST right this week. For once, Harley finally made a bike that does meet my style and expectations.
You are going to love it!! Congrats!
Good review on the ST, I saw it in person at my local dealership. I’m considering getting one for the price it’s well worth it.
Yeah they got this one right for sure .
I agree, great value for the money. I was actually surprised at the price point. Now I'm considering this bike!
Finding one at MSRP is gonna be tough though.. sadly…
I have had mine for 1 week now. Love the bike, only thing that has to go for my liking is the mid controls. Have a forward control kit on order. If you are 6 foot tall or taller, the mids are quite cramping.
Agree. Forward controls would be a must for me as well.
Thanks for the review. I have to say that the lack of an analog speedometer and tachometer is a big miss on this bike. Hopefully they’ll have an option for adding them.
Big miss - need the analog.
You should definitely buy the ST! I would love to see some more ST content and see how you would build it out!
Excellent review, I love the ST and wouldn't change anything other than upgrading the two in to two exhaust (which I like) for something a little louder, as soon as it arrives on this side of the Atlantic (UK) I will be handing over my hard earned cash to my local dealer H-D to acquire one.
We have a 2022 Low Rider S and have a Low Rider ST on Order. We love the Low Rider S and can't wait to get the ST.
Excellent review. Bike is awesome and I’d defiantly love to own one. I imagine I would just find a sport glide bag for the right side and run a 2 into 1 pipe.
I love the Lowrider ST and I would absolutely buy one!
Cosmetically, looking at it from more than 10 ft away, it's one black blob sans any contrast that would give it form. Nobody is even going to be able to discern that it's not a Honda, let alone notice that the bags are different.
Am glad to see HD finally did the bike right in the suspension dept. Hopefully, someday they'll bring one out that looks like a Harley.
I love this bike, and I am considering signing up for one. However, if I were designing it I would have gone 2-1 and made the bags the same size. Love it, but that is a head scratcher for me. In fact, I think that will be an option in 2023. They only have to buy one mold to do it.
Yeah I’m not sure why they didn’t do that unless they had a massive amount of sport Glide bags left over.
Well the bags are from the Sport Glide which does have a two into one exhaust as standard and that right hand pannier won’t fit if bags were same size. I owned a Sport Glide and it’s really obvious why Harley did this.
really good video tho, I love how you do the side by side comparison video for people online to understand the difference between two bikes
hope you can keep on making the good quality content
Lowrider ST is really a good looking bike of softail family, especially the streetbob style gauge just hit my spot
not really a big fan of revolution max engine
I ordered and payed in full mine in April, only because it was the last one in stock in Belgium. I still didn't get it and from the shop here in Belgrade they told me that folks from Harley told them they will deliver all the prepaid bikes in two weeks.
My man!!! I'm waiting on mine for like 5 months now... Great review. I will run a 2 into 1 exhaust, unfortunately...
I want a street glide special, in battleship grey so bad. But my budget says otherwise, and this bike catches my eye. Having not seen one in person, how tall person friendly is this bike? Would forward controls ruin the ride of this bike? Love the channel, hope you buy one!
The guage on the S is better than the one on the ST. Kind of surprised they did that.
I’m with you on buying one, if anybody can afford it it’s cheaper then building it yourself 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
That is definitely "The Bike" for me. I like the bagger bikes yet Im short and don't like how I look on a RoadKing. This bike solves that issue and a performance bagger to boot!!!
Yeah it's gonna be REAL hard to top this one.
Much prefer the gauge . One of the things I really like about the Sportster S.
Finally the video I was waiting for!!!
Just perchased a BMW R18 and that bike blows the Low Rider ST a new hole in so many ways.
I'm between this and a Fat Bob. Going to be my first Harley.
Really like the the review brotha. Definitely going back and forth about this bike and the LRS. I will be getting a new bike very soon.....🤷♂️. Decisions, decisions! A versus review would be super cool. 👌
Great review. My dealer has 20 with deposits down, but only 5 allocated.
Here's a idea, what if the 2 into 1 exhaust pipe rode high like the top muffler?
I like it a whole lot. I was considering buying the ST, but (1) it was near impossible to get one, (2) it costs a few thousand more than the S which I know is still a good value for what you’re getting, but for a second bike I needed to stick with the lower price, and (3) I wanted something completely different from my Ultra Limited. Not having the fairing on my Low Rider S makes it completely different to me. I’m LOVING my Low Rider S. I’ve had it for about 8 weeks now.
Yeah man in your situation I would have done the same thing. I was thinking Lowrider S or Road King S so this bike kinda falls between the 2 for me.
I liked this video, subscribed, and then went on to watch and like the rest of your videos. All because I support your hopes and dreams in getting this bike for yourself. Lol. Be great, friend. Lol.
Hey Blair, love the channel, especially the model walkthroughs and versus videos. One critique on this one, looks like you have a little bit of a duplication around 08:35 and 08:39, with the "or make the left side..." sentence.
Thanks! I think I remember thinking don't forget to fix that and then I forgot!!! haha
I just got one,now waiting to receive
Been wanting to ride one. Such limited availability it’ll probably be a great while til they have one on the truck. I’ll also probably wait for a better color choice. Tha me for the review!
The motor company hit it out of the ball with this one...
I can honestly say its a bummer they discounted the sport glide, Had it gotten the ST treatment, variety is key . I mean there's a street glide for a road glide, and there's too many of this particular model.
Do you think Harley will eventually offer a same-sized right-hand saddlebag? For those of us who ditch the stock exhaust, ofcourse. Love this new machine from HD!
I sure hope so. Would be a GREAT business for someone else to get into if it could be done without getting in trouble.
it is a great looking bike! Harley nailed it on this one!!! I will not trade it in for my 2020 Lowrider S, especially with all the mods I did to it, but I can understand people trading in for this one
Yeah I wouldn’t do that either if it’s setup how you like it. Are you running any bags on yours?
@@throttleblip9854 no bags at all ... not necessary for the type of riding I do
My st just arrived at my dealer. I will pick it up on Monday. My speaker are on back order. Deliver of the speaker is 6 months out. I had ordered mine at the end od jjan.
Congrats! Bummer on the speaker though. I've heard it was on backorder but didn't realize it was that far out.
This bike looks amazing except for those saddlebags being different sizes it messes with my OCD 😂
Great video. Got mine on order.
Happy for you. Very jealous but still happy! hahaha
I agree on the absence of the audio equipement, to not raise the price.
But I disagree for the two people seat and additional pegs : all bikes company are basically providing them for no price increase (in fact, price increase often comes with the 1 people seat option...).
The Motor Company is litteraly bullying it's own customers on that point.
Yeah if they wouldn’t have charged more I’d definitely say include 2up. However it’s Harley and they always charge more haha. So in that case I’d rather not pay more for a seat I’d replace anyway.
Great video! Here in Canada no dealers have any but I ordered one anyway. Questions
1. I’m 5ft 11 - should I add the forward peg kit.
2. Does it have DC power or USB built in.
Thanks
I got one. It's awesome.
It's a good bike. I just don't like the gauges. I much prefer the single gauge on the S. Could you fit that ST fairing on the Fat Bob?
I’m sure you could but not a direct bolt on. You’d have to change the rectangle head light since the hole is for a round one. Frame mount should work. Bracket around the headlight might be specific but I’m sure could be modified. I’d love to see someone try it
Very nice...thanks for review - so right straight out of the crate.
Yeah that’s what’s great about this one, throw exhaust on it and ride.
Did the dealer charge MSRP? A dealer near me was going to charge $28000 out the door.
I think that’s about what most dealers are asking for theirs. Don’t think this one was that much.
I like it well enough that I am thinking of trading in my 2020 Road Glide for one. This is the best deal you can get for a performance bagger(type) from the factory. The way it is set up, you can take it straight to the track.
I was looking at the Road Glide ST. It looks good, but for the money it is very lack luster. 30K plus with a mostly stock suspension and a Boombox? Why would you put floor boards and a Boombox on a performance bagger? I would rather make the radio an option and offset the cost for the Ohlins/racing suspension. The Touring STs are a gimmick with a CVO engine. The Lowrider ST is definitely closer to the mark!!!
hopefully thunderheader will make the pipe for this run up closer to the saddlebag so there isn't a big useless gap, and providing more lean angle.
That was actually the secondary reason they made that bag smaller. Heard an HD engineer talking about how lots of the 2 into 1 systems kick the muffler up for clearance. They know the exhaust is going to get changed out no matter what comes stock.
I'm just waiting for the man to call me and say TJ come pick up your low rider ST can't wait
What?? Your not going to nick pick the fact still no led turn signals?? Still don't know why Harley won't just go ahead and give use full led lights. Still an awesome bike though.
Yea, it's 2022. LED's should be standard all way round. I prefer the S in this bike. I'm not a bag or fairing guy. I haven't seen anything yet that makes me want to get off my Fat Boy. Except for another Fat Boy :)
@@brianfreeman3192 exactly and with the premium you have to pay for Harley's I feel like we shouldn't have to spend another $200 bucks just to upgrade the signals to LEDs like another bike company already has
@@lamarboyd819 very true.
Love the bike , but don't care for plate location, prefer location of plate on sport glide
Has it got full LED lights/turn signals? Also, I'm also a huge fan of symmetry - that bag setup might be a deal breaker for me...thanks for another great review!
Headlight halo LED and main brake light is LEDs. I'm replacing the halogen rear turn and front running/turn signals with LEDs for about $150
I got one...wow love it
I could have bought a 2021 at a fair price with under 4000 miles , I am sure it’s going sell out for this and maybe next year , please give the bike forward controls Harley-Davidson
Those different sized bags looks silly and not right IMO , why didn't H.D make a single exhaust and make both bags the same size
I’d be very curious to hear the answer to that one as well. Could be as simple as they wanted to launch the bike without making a new exhaust and mold for the right side bag. If that was the case and they just wanted more time maybe they will do that for 23? Would be some mad 22 owners but if they already had the 2-1 they would just have to buy the bag.
Funny thing is the bags have been this way the entire time on the Sport Glide, but this model is so high profile it is now coming into view. Personally I do not see them changing it. I think, as stated, many previous ST owners would be very disappointed. It really is a small thing that after a minute with them you don't really notice
Didn’t they put LED headlight, LED rear lights, but leave the front turn signals as halogen? That gives you one thing to nit pick.
Not one thing? Hiw about the miss matched saddlebags? I mean I get why the right one is smaller. so why nit just make the left one match it? Thats just dumb.
Would I get one. Yes indeedy!
I think I’ll buy the low rider s and then add a fairing , sissy bar, and saddle bags. A lot cheaper that way
Plenty grey primer ones available here now.
Indian did the same cockeyed bag thing with the new Chiefs and I don't like it there either. I wonder if regular touring bags would fit on it?
As always I enjoyed your review. But, may I offer an alternative. “What a lash up.” Tank - why not fit a new plain tank rather than the old one with a big lump of plastic on the top of it. Exhausts - obviously needs a two into one which would alleviate the different size of the bags. However, the bags still look ridiculous as they are mounted too high and look like an after-market after thought. Gauges - can you actually read them in the sun. Why not stick with the new semi analogue one which you can read as it is mounted at a higher level which everyone was screaming for. Fairing - I know it harks back to the original and it has been improved but would it not have beeb better to have started with a clean sheet because in my eyes it is still ugly and looks unbalanced giving the bike a heavy front end - just saying.
Yes Buy a Lowrider ST!
Greet video. Thanks for sharing.
It's a Lowrider S plus $4,000 for bags and fairing.
Buying these things at my dealership. They’re starting at 26k. I passed. I want one bad though.
Buy one!
Don't encourage me. Fortunately Timms is the only place I'd buy one and all of theirs so far are pre orders for other customers hahaha
I think you should get an FXLRST
I definitely want to. I was kinda between a Lowrider S or a Road King S. The Lowrider ST seems like a good option.
Savage bike! Daddy like.
clicking as hard as I can brother, but you might need to up your gigolo side business... P.S., they could have made them both full size and put a 2-1 pipe on in the first place....
just ordered mine 2024 ST Maui. $30K
Everybody wants one, even me!
We deserve it,
So doooope!! 🖤🔥
Been waiting 5 mothers for mine
That would kill me but must feel good to know you have one coming!!
in 23 I will get one.
Great review..you're definitely getting one haha
I want one so bad! Hahah
Good review but im just not feeling this bike. Maybe its for a different generation
Save 2k and put your own stuff on the S. You get a better guage.
This is the one "newer Harley " that I MIGHT consider trading up my 110 dyna street bob but like you said good luck actually getting one or not paying an insane markup on it 😑
Hey a 110 SB isn’t the worst thing to he riding around on while you decide!
I have to say, IMO, it’s a Sportglide with a 117 but an ugly fairing. I get what they were trying to do, I’m just not a big fan of those bags or the fairing.
Thanks for the review. it's an awesome bike. But I think you should wait till the end of the year for something better. spoiler alert 😉
E-mail it to me. I'll sign a NDA hahaha
That crinkled black looks cheep, rather see a flat black or gloss finish. The bags look like crap, only thing going for the bike is a 117.
really like it but can't afford one LoL
Same... have to pick up a second job haha
the fairing looks like a chopped roadglide
Too much wrinkle black on these new ‘22 softails.. I get it on the motor here and there but there’s no need to have it like that on the risers, the top clamp etc.. it looks like rhino liner
I guess I never really paid much attention to it so it must not bother me as much. I definitely get your point. Painted or chrome parts look great when they are clean but the bike looks trashed when they are dirty. The wrinkle kinda hides that to an extent. That said if I was building an older dyna or softail I wouldn't have any textured parts so maybe you're right. lol
That pricing is way to high for what you're getting.
really? a seat and pegs would drive up the price of a bike that's already stupid expensive? good video up until that point.
1st comment!👑
Lets GO!
well over 22000 did I hear you right ? Ok then
I've talked to 3 people who have one. Prices I was told were 24, 26, and 27. Thats why I don't have one lol
hate, Hate, HATE that shrimpy digital gauge. Really prefer analogue gauges with big needles sweeping across the face of a gauge clearly printer with numbers.
Needs fatter risers. Fatter bars and already hearing that the display is useless in the sun.
Good value … no it’s overpriced cause of the name that bike should be 15k the s should be 12k
It’s FXLRST not FLXRST
I’m not a fan of the fairing on this bike. I saw on on the show room floor in Covid Grey. In my opinion it’s a butt ugly bike :(
That's one ugly bike. Looks like something from the 70's or 80's 👎
What's wrong with the 70's and 80's?
@@throttleblip9854 ugly dude ugly that's what's wrong. I just don't like the bags and fairing.
That’s Harley though, they’re all modern classics, retro inspired for the most part
@@Bergamot88 at least it seems to be a hit with a lot of people and selling well 👍
I don't think it's that ugly but I do like the regular S version a lot better as far as looks go.
Hey Blair! I hope you get enough from the channel to buy one ST soon!!😄😅
I am from India and I love this bike so much, wanna buy one however, I dont know when it gonna launch in India🥲🥲
Do you have any idea?
Thanks for the love! I’m not sure why you guys didn’t get it. When I see my contacts at Harley Corporate in June I’ll try to remember to ask them.
@@throttleblip9854 I'll save the date and i will remind you to ask them! Thanks a lot mate..Godspeed
