I’m about 75% done with my 2017 dyna build, now I see this!!! Thanks a lot! Really though, I love the style and seeing it on the new model has made me a fan.
Beautiful build!! I get the point about the ride quality but a 21inch fat spoked front tyre and fishtails would look sick!! Just curious if the samson fish tails will fit the 2018 Deluxe frame. What do you say mate?
also needs new turn signals, bullet look the best !! Cant go wrong with black and chrome.. What about rebound adjustment on the fly, or is it just a bag ?? Shotgun shock has it !
You dont have to be a gangster to like this style its just universal beautiful i think like the most beautiful style of bikes out there classic gorgeous i love it!!
Hey Matt, thanks for the video(s), please keep them coming. Can you please help me ID the cables needed to install these exact bars? Thanks in advance!
Matt, that's a beauty! I want to do that with my heritage. I have to try to make my mind up on 14s or 16 apes. And now that I saw that air shock I'm thinking I need that too. I'll see what's available for my 2016. I like that look though. Thanks! As always!!
Curious as to how that air ride feels. I had an air ride that was just awful. It essentially turned the bike into a hard tail. Every time I went over a buckle in the pavement a jolt of kinetic energy would go straight up my back. Had to go back to a custom mono shock. Do the airbags give it a cushier ride?
I like the look of the high rise handlebars on this Deluxe Harley. I've always wondered if it makes for an awkward ride in terms of steering and general control of the bike. A beautiful bike! Should have watched to the end before my comment above. Ah, yes, the hangers are to do with style and not much else. They look great on the Harley.
That bike looks very cool. Just the right amount of styling. But one question: what is the sense of this airride thing? Just coolness? Besides I don‘t like the sound of pumping it up
Roadster FB One use is for shorter riders, air up on the highway and air down in town or traffic. Much better than a straight drop kit because you still maintain full use of your suspension. And it looks cool! There’s always that!😬
Did factory 47 hook you up with the cabling for the apes or did you have to go somewhere else? I'm getting a 2018 deluxe and wanna throw some apes on it.
Can you do the same vicla look on a slim? It would be a little more affordable , you think ?not to take away anything from the deluxe that is a great idea I know you might be giving HD ideas they should compensate you for .its just my thoughts. Keep up the good work Matt .
Matt, if a person called your parts department would they be able to hook a guy up with all the part numbers and or parts needed to install 14" Carlini Gangster apes on a 2014 Fatboy lo? The dealership in my area told me that they do not know what length cables would be needed unless the bars were first installed on the bike to measure cables, wires etc. pretty much making me to have them do the install. I would rather install myself to save money.
@@MattLaidlaw I see the straps rolled around the roll, but I am trying to figure out how to attach it to the fender so it doesn't scratch the paint and fly off.
Love your work man! For my next bike I’m thinking I’m either going to Warr’s Kings Road Customs in London or to you my brother but I’ll definitely be paying you a visit in the near future! I’d call this build “The El Chapo”! 🔥
Well here it is spring 2020 and the Motor Company still has very little to offer as far as custom accessories are concerned. Same goes for the aftermarket, sad because I truly enjoy my 2019 Deluxe. Personalization is a big part of the HD experience thus leaving a big gap in ownership...
Hi Matt, great vid as always. Need some unassociated advice if possible, i have a new 2018 Twisted Cherry BO, unfortunately I dropped it off the stand while cleaning so there were two very small dents in the tank, tried to get them pushed out by a pro but the paint blistered. The problem I have is that i live in the Philippines and the level of service in all aspects is of fabrication/painting etc is not up to the requisite standard and im finding it difficult to get this done here? So, the question I have would it be possible to purchase a new 2018 new Twisted Cherry tank for my Breakout and at what cost. Appreciate you advise on this pretty stressful issue :(
Howdy Matt Great video like always hope to make down to your dealership one day. From up here in Seattle, Wa Question what fender bib did you use. And will it work on the 18 heritage as well. Cause HD parts catalog has no reference saying it will.
Mike Canazero the same bib that fits the deluxe should also fit the heritage; that is what I found on the mustangseats website anyway. I have a mustang bib on my Slim and love it.
How tall is the guy on the bike. Because I am too short for those 18s. But I really like the style of that bike with those bars. I am 5foot 8 by the way. What are some of your suggestions Matt.
Personally, it's not my style of bike, but with that being said, it's not my bike. I do however appreciate the modifications performed on the bike, but I would change every chrome piece to black pieces, drop the height on the bars by about 3 inches, and leave the chrome wheels, but have thicker spokes. I will say that I enjoy your history bits on certain bike parts you showcase, hella cool. I don't know the reliability of the bag suspension, but I LOVE the look! Where did you his the compressor/tank for the setup? That's trick! I dig the theme of the build! Give me more Dynas Matt!!!🤟
Something I would've turned my nose up at years ago...really has grown on me. Done with sportbikes. I'm ready to enjoy the ride no matter what speed. Like turning from a jockey to a cowboy. Now only if Ontario Canada laws didnt make these bars illegal.
you guys make some great bikes great videos ive commented before and you answer alot of your mail thanks bro great job the mexican bed rolls where do you get them from? thanks again
Man, killer build! Honestly one of the few new Softails that looks good to me. Not hatin on 'em, they're just not my thing. But this one....I'd proudly ride! Just add wheels and exhaust and DAYUM! Complete badassness. Curious, how does that air ride suspension compare to stock?
Cool bike! Not my personal style at all but a well executed build. Interesting to hear the history about that whip there too. Maybe those kind of short "history lessons" about details on bikes could be a thing to have in your videos Matt!? Small details like that adds even more substance to these already informative videos you are known for! Keep em´coming sir!
This bike is only really missing one thing for that style, a wicked paint job. Get this thing down to a paint shop and get it a Los Muertos coat of paint.
I’m about 75% done with my 2017 dyna build, now I see this!!! Thanks a lot! Really though, I love the style and seeing it on the new model has made me a fan.
It is July 2019 and I still keep coming to this 📹 Vlog 👌👋💪
Nice looking bike, Softail deLux is a good platform for customisation 😎👍
Yes Sir!
Yvan R. Just go online & get a rough idea of what you want, then start narrowing it all down, it's a very personal thing customising the bike 🖒🖒😎
I've been bouncing back and forth between what Harley I want, and this video just sold me on a softail deluxe. Thank you Matt!
Enjoy! It’s a great bike
Metoo!
Hey Matt, bad ass classic gangster look Motorcycle
Good job 👍🏼
Gangsta Matt all you need are fish tail pipes
Yea, Thank you CARB.
I would love to see fishtail pipes on a 2019 trike, could you do that Matt?"
I am from Phoenix, AZ and was just there this past weekend but unfortunately I did not see any Vicla styled bikes there at all.
Badges?, "Badges??, We don't need no stinking Badges!!!
Those white wall tires are SICK in the best way possible. I love it.
I love the Vicla styling points. And the Heritage works well yes.
The Deluxe is beautiful stock!
Yea, it looks really good this year.
mr2bmw aye just wanted to ask what would be a good first time bike to get?
I'm not sure if it's intended or not but I love how you are showing both tall and short on bikes.
Sick bike , im torn between going this route or street glide
very cool, needs a 21 or 23 up front and some fishtails to complete the transformation to Chicano Style vicla
I agree
Anyone know how that legend air ride holds up over time?
Every time I watch one of your videos I think, I wish we had lane splitting in Wisconsin.
Man that's so gangsta and I love it! Going to get a new one for me this Christmas.
Thats exactly what I'm looking for , we're are you guys located,
Parts list & #’s for fender, tank accent pieces please!! Just bought an 18’ deluxe electric blue!
That would be my choice for customisation.
Greetings from germany!
Bought one of the last 2020er Deluxe last month. And i love this style in the video! Good job Mr. Laidlaw👏🏻
Beautiful build!! I get the point about the ride quality but a 21inch fat spoked front tyre and fishtails would look sick!! Just curious if the samson fish tails will fit the 2018 Deluxe frame. What do you say mate?
Finally - someone that realizes the bedroll can be more than a hood ornament - it can be a back rest!
The ape hangers are not for an old guy like me but they are very cool. Beautiful bike..
You think the 2021 Softail Standard could pull off a look like that?
Hi Matt, great video, gorgeous bike! Would you be able to provide a link or website for the “get back whip”. Thank you In advance!
Nice scoot. I'm thinking of getting another Harley. What's the best way to keep the exhaust studs from rusting?
Love that softail deluxe Chicano stile . I live in Jersey wish I can get that stile here .
I need this song on repeat when I ride
also needs new turn signals, bullet look the best !! Cant go wrong with black and chrome.. What about rebound adjustment on the fly, or is it just a bag ?? Shotgun shock has it !
You dont have to be a gangster to like this style its just universal beautiful i think like the most beautiful style of bikes out there classic gorgeous i love it!!
Badasser timeless design, luv it!❤️
Love it,the whip,the star,time for a limited run of "Laidlaw So-Cal" models.
We probably should. Thanks for the Idea.
Matt Laidlaw y'all did a good job with this one
Those chrome switch housings are not available from Harley as "2018", only the ones with cruise control. Maybe earlier versions fit, how would I know?
Yea, it can be done. I think maybe we put the 2018 ones on with the cruise. You can call our Shop and ask. I forget exactly what we did.
Great looking motorcycle love the 50s look thanks for the video Matt take care
Can u get one that style with the 114 in it?
Would riding for an extended period of time start to make your arms tired with those raised handlebars?
So does it come stock with cruise control???
Gerardo Ruiz No. not available.
Damn I want that bike so bad
Hey Matt, thanks for the video(s), please keep them coming. Can you please help me ID the cables needed to install these exact bars? Thanks in advance!
Great bike! What's the height of those ape hangers?
16 inch I believe.
@@MattLaidlaw hmm..seems to me like 18 or 20..or maybe this guy isn't very tall. Anyway thanks for the reply
Matt, that's a beauty! I want to do that with my heritage. I have to try to make my mind up on 14s or 16 apes. And now that I saw that air shock I'm thinking I need that too. I'll see what's available for my 2016. I like that look though. Thanks! As always!!
No heel toe shifters on 2018 and newer..?
That's my dream bike.🙂

Should have watched to the end before my comment above. Ah, yes, the hangers are to do with style and not much else. They look great on the Harley.
They are easy to get used to. It's a fun riding position
Ill never go back to low bars plus the bike is so balanced i think it feels even better than stock
How about a 19 or 21 inch front wheel ?
My god, what a sexy bike!
That bike looks very cool. Just the right amount of styling. But one question: what is the sense of this airride thing? Just coolness? Besides I don‘t like the sound of pumping it up
Roadster FB
One use is for shorter riders, air up on the highway and air down in town or traffic. Much better than a straight drop kit because you still maintain full use of your suspension. And it looks cool! There’s always that!😬
Mike Jones exactly.
Part number for engine guard please!
Good video Matt
You mentioned that the rear fender bib is a Harley Davidson part - I've been looking for one of these - do you have a part number? Many thanks
anyone know what tail light that is?
Love this style!
You had to add the engine guard too if i'm not mistaken. Love the build. How much did the entire build cost?
Did factory 47 hook you up with the cabling for the apes or did you have to go somewhere else? I'm getting a 2018 deluxe and wanna throw some apes on it.
Same question in my mind..
Nicely done!! Love the look.
Thanks Matt. Other good video, it would great but "higth" it's a 'T' man, com'on!
Awesome bike, and what's the name of BGM？ I can't find in the website which you given.
Can you do the same vicla look on a slim? It would be a little more affordable , you think ?not to take away anything from the deluxe that is a great idea I know you might be giving HD ideas they should compensate you for .its just my thoughts. Keep up the good work Matt .
Hi Matt, did you also need the adapter kit when installing the nameplate on this Deluxe?
Not to my personal taste but stunning looking bike, excellent review as usual.
Where’s the samsons ?
Matt, if a person called your parts department would they be able to hook a guy up with all the part numbers and or parts needed to install 14" Carlini Gangster apes on a 2014 Fatboy lo? The dealership in my area told me that they do not know what length cables would be needed unless the bars were first installed on the bike to measure cables, wires etc. pretty much making me to have them do the install. I would rather install myself to save money.
Formidable Fragment did you go with the 1.25” or the 1.50”?
powerman1972 1.5 in all day. Doesn’t make much sense for me to get Carlini’s and not get 1.5 in
How is the bed roll attached?
Two belt like leather straps.
@@MattLaidlaw I see the straps rolled around the roll, but I am trying to figure out how to attach it to the fender so it doesn't scratch the paint and fly off.
sick bike!! any street glides with air suspension??
There are plenty out there. We haven't done a new one for the floor though. We have installed plenty though
Sick bike
Can’t wait till my 2018 Deluxe has this starting point...Just waiting for the 2018 deluxe fish tails..
Wats the # for knot heads or wats web site tanks
Dude, tell us the price please👍
Love it!!! ❤️❤️❤️
That bike sounds good stock, now imagine with some pipes? Damn! That Milwaukee 8 will sound even better, great engine. Love the video man, thanks!
I got cobra neighbor haters on mine. Sounds like a hog should
S&S slashcuts on mine, sounds great cant wait to go to the basani fishtails
Love your work man! For my next bike I’m thinking I’m either going to Warr’s Kings Road Customs in London or to you my brother but I’ll definitely be paying you a visit in the near future! I’d call this build “The El Chapo”! 🔥
Haha, Sounds good my friend. Come see us
Is that rear suspension more sporty?
The air ride suspension is softer and less reactive then a spring suspension. So if you’re looking for “Sporty” then stick to the stock.
Well here it is spring 2020 and the Motor Company still has very little to offer as far as custom accessories are concerned. Same goes for the aftermarket, sad because I truly enjoy my 2019 Deluxe. Personalization is a big part of the HD experience thus leaving a big gap in ownership...
Whip goes on the clutch lever, not brake lever.
Where did you get the cables?
Yo Matt, love the Vicla I'm hooked.
👍🏻👍🏻

Who wins in a brawl between u and ur bro?
Me of course.
How tall is the guy on the bike. Because I am too short for those 18s. But I really like the style of that bike with those bars. I am 5foot 8 by the way. What are some of your suggestions Matt.
Chrome is king. Love everything except the whip and the blanket role thing. SE slip-ons would add the required noise (and street legal).
What's the name of the background song?
Personally, it's not my style of bike, but with that being said, it's not my bike. I do however appreciate the modifications performed on the bike, but I would change every chrome piece to black pieces, drop the height on the bars by about 3 inches, and leave the chrome wheels, but have thicker spokes.

Coming soon my friend. Fatbob custom build coming.
Matt Laidlaw Thank you my Brother, I'm definitely looking forward to that vlog!👊
What was the other bike, the red one? New roadking with a m8?
Fred GFY Smith it’s a 2006 Softail Deluxe
Beautiful bike but the whip thing is just plain weird!
Is that a Dog lead ????
Cool video, we don't see many of these styled bikes in South Africa. What jacket is that, you use it on most of your test rides. MHL&R
Its just a Dickies Jacket that I've sewn a bunch of patches onto
Air ride is dope!
That is one bad ass looking vicla! Keep up the great content!
Thank you! Thanks for watching
good video as always, would that leather bib fit on the fender of my 2017 CVO Street Glide I never have the passenger seat on it? Regards.
Yea, I think it would. I'm not 100% sure though
I can't find that bib on the Harley online store, they only go to 2017 (which I bought and had to return)
Captain Itch made me what I was looking for: shop.captain-itch.com/Fender-Bib-plain-Fender-Bib-plain.htm
Something I would've turned my nose up at years ago...really has grown on me. Done with sportbikes. I'm ready to enjoy the ride no matter what speed. Like turning from a jockey to a cowboy. Now only if Ontario Canada laws didnt make these bars illegal.
Just ride dirty my friend. Screw the law
Apes are more comfortable than low bars, I can't imagine ever riding with drag bars ever again!!!
SuperBad that air ride seems to have a lot of travel nice n low
For sure. It's a nice system.
you guys make some great bikes great videos ive commented before and you answer alot of your mail thanks bro great job the mexican bed rolls where do you get them from? thanks again
scott willoughby I’m actually not sure where they got it. There are a lot of local shops around here like swap meets etc that sell them.
thanks great videos keep up the great work really great videos
Matt, unrelated, but I gotta ask. Whenever you find yourself out of state do you ever consider sitting lanes?? C'mon man be honest 😄
All the time man. Some times I just do it.
Matt Laidlaw, one sympathesizes, I couldn't imagine not being able to split. What would u do if u ever got ticketed for splitting?
Road Glider pay the ticket and be done with it.
Man, killer build! Honestly one of the few new Softails that looks good to me. Not hatin on 'em, they're just not my thing. But this one....I'd proudly ride! Just add wheels and exhaust and DAYUM! Complete badassness. Curious, how does that air ride suspension compare to stock?
H Wallace it’s nice. It’s like a Cadillac feel. It takes away from of the performance aspect.
Matt Laidlaw Thanks, Matt. Again, great job! Just bought a SGS, but gotta admit...this Deluxe has me a bit jelly I didn't look at the Softails.
Sick ass bike... tombstone
Thank you
