Big Vern.... You can go two ways spend a ton of money on a new bike You're getting a little bit more cubic inches and that big fancy touch screen big deal or you can get a 131 motor for 11 grand and blow all them away or buy a kit build your motor up $4,000 for the kit and plus extra for installation You're still cheaper than a brand new bike
Rob, that's a great point I have mad respect for those 131 I seen it firsthand those things can rip, by the way your bike is freaking badass. My only problem that I have is that my bike is a 2018 and I have been looking at resale value. I came across a few older bikes that had motor work done I found out that even with the motor work they still weren't able to get a bigger profit because the bike was a older model. On the other hand you're right my bike has only $3,000 Miles on it and has a lot of potential, great comment as always
@@Bigvernsmotolife well you're talking about resale value so many years after you buy that new 24 you're not going to get what you are going to ask for so you're in the same boat I almost traded my shrink glide straight Bob in for a street glide CVO I'll tell you right now Nice bike but for $58 ....59,000 what they're asking no thanks I'll keep my bike I don't care what motor has in it or anything and it was the one with the $6,000 paint job
It’s your call. But my 128 walked away from the 121 big time. Build your motor or get a 6year note. If you put a Stage 4 On it, those 117 new bikes don’t have a chance. Because I have drag 2 2024’s . 117 and 121
KB, first off thank you for watching the channel man and your show is off the hook. You have showed me a lot of things about becoming a motovlogger and I really appreciate it. Kong is a "Beast" and a build like yours is exactly what I'm looking for
@@Bigvernsmotolife thanks bro I appreciate that. Man I support good people who’s doing good content. I appreciate your support and glad that my videos are inspiring others.
It's a win win !!! Can't ever go wrong with a new bike ! Really doesn't matter if you build up yours that's probably paid off. So do what you want ! I also thought about getting the new Road Glide because of the new look. Then I had to remember I just paid off my 2019 Street Glide and also did a cam , camplate , new header and slipons . It was easy decision ! I paid a lot for my ride and put additional $5,000 into the cam upgrade. I'll let all my buddies buy the new equipment and appreciate what I already have ! Good luck on your decision , regardless what you do both bikes do the speed limit ! 😅🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺😁
Jason, I really appreciate that that is great advice either way I go I win my bike is paid off like you so it's really tempting to go ahead and drop a few thousand on some great engine work. I do like the new design of the Road Glide but again like you said our bikes are paid off and I do not want to start any more payments. I really appreciate you dropping some knowledge
Keep your Bike and Keep the Motor Stock with Stock Compression...Just put a Good Cam from Fueling or S@S with a new Camchest Job....And thats all you need...It will Run Night and Day difference...
Brad, I have been hearing a lot of good things about the S&S if I'm going to go with a cam then that would be the one. I was talking to a motorcycle Tech about engine work and he also recommended that as well great comment brother I appreciate that👊👊 you definitely know your stuff
Build your own bike. I brought a 2021 Road Glide standard 107 back in 2021. It was bone stock. Now I’ve added a 129 power pack from s&s that came with 4.3 big bore cylinder, 550 cam, cam plate oil pump, springs,pushrods. I also added a thundermax tuner, 55 mm S&S fuel manifold, Barnett performance clutch, Legends suspension front and back. Knrome Werks full 2-1-2 headers and exhaust. Man I love this bike because I built it. Take all that Harley stock shit outta your bike 😂
Chuck, your bike started as a 107 and now it's a monster I totally agree with you that's something you built yourself you can never get that in a stock bike good work on your build, you used a lot of great products!!!!
I currently have the bike for sale right now I think I might get more money selling it as a private seller other than trading in but you are right the bike has not been broken in yet I really appreciate your comment and I appreciate you supporting the show hope to see you back soon I got great content coming👊
You always give great tips on buying bikes and making it it look good ...I think no I knew that you are going to buy another bike ....I hope you fine something you really like
If you like your current bike I would keep it and spend 4 or 5k at Zippers Performance. It beats spending 30k on new bike that you will probably upgrade also.
If Nikki came with the bike then definitely get the new bike , no doubt about it , but honestly you can get a 131 create motor or build your motor for around 11K , which to me is much cheaper then spending around 40K for a newer slower bike , your bike is still pretty much new but the final choice is yours to make
Josh first thank you for watching I appreciate it if you are local give me a call or shoot me a text and I will include you in our group text with all the rides coming up we're going to have a blast this year and we would love to have you my number is 330-618-4350
Frank, you are right!!! that seems to be almost 100% of what everybody is saying it would be cheaper to put the performance in my bike because my bike is paid for and it is super low miles and almost brand new
Anthony congratulations on your purchase I got to give you credit those things are beasts and the technology is crazy in the bike I am hooked on them now. I see you got the best Glide which is the Road Glide😅 keep sliding. The new bikes command respect from everybody congratulations again💯💯
@@Bigvernsmotolife Thank you Sir, funny though i had bought a 24 Road King back in Feb. That was going to be my solo riding bike with some mods on it. And still is. But when I saw the 24 RG models i was like “wooooaaaah”. And when i finally test rode it, I pulled the trigger. My RG will be my long distance bike. So pull the trigger! I promise, you will not regret it.
That is crazy because if you go back in my show in the beginning I am all over the road king special that has always been one of my favorite bikes. I got to get like you you are doing it big time!!!!
Gordon, great advice, you made a great Point how you ride definitely makes a huge difference. Thank you for watching and that was an awesome comment!!!!
Keep your bike and take it to All American Cycles for an upgrade. George will build it to what you want. And it will be an everyday rider. I ride a 2021 road glide, 2010 road king and a 2013 street glide. I test road the 2024 road glide and fell in love but its hard for me to commit to them payments when my joints are paid off. I'm going to cop me one of those new road glide in two or three years. It will be used with low miles and the hype would have gone down on the new design.
Uno, I love all American Cycles I fell in love with that CVO he had, he literally smoked everybody, I don't think he lost a race with that bike. He sold it to another RUclipsr that I follow I would love to take my bike to him but he is pretty far away from me in Florida I'm going to probably try to get with a few performance guys in this area that are well respected. I agree with you about the 2024 check out my video today that's about to drop I was there working on a deal last night but it looks like you're right I'm going to probably have to take my bike in and get the work done on the engine myself my bike is 100% paid for and I do not want payments either
@@BigvernsmotolifeAbsolutely bro. Either decision you make will be good. That new joint rides gooooooood. I lifted the front wheel off the ground during the test ride. Once you upgrade your Storm Trooper, that's when your really going to appreciate it and know that you made the right decision. Like I said before, I will be getting one of those new joints but I will get it at a better deal in two to three years. It will be used with low miles. That way I don't have to pay them new prices. Be safe and stay up bro!
I had a 16 rg with a 103. it had stage one engine and stage 2 audio. was going to put over 10k into the motor and suspension. so I traded it for the white 2024 rg. now I want to dump more money. lol
Deril, I had a 16 also with the 103 in it, and I was craving more power just like you. I am so glad that you bought the 24 I feel like you can go nowhere but up, and the bike is still going to hold Great Value if you want to sell it. Bikes are the ultimate money pit, but if you spend your money, you might as well spend it on something you love, and we all love going fast 🤣
i would just keep you're bike bro..think about it even if you buy a 2024 as soon as upgrades are here you know you're going to be dropping a Cam pipes maybe clutch.. you're bike is BEAUTIFUL BRO... i would do a T MAN build there unbreakable and built like a rock..i have a 21 street glide And i did the T MAN pro street touring went from a 107 to a 127..you have the 114 that would bring you to a 130 bro T MAN 130..you will SMOKE anyone..i'm telling you give it a think..BTW just found youre channel
Ryan, thank you for watching and supporting the channel really appreciate it brother also man I am really going to go look into that T-man I'm going to stop at the performance shop today and get discuss it I think you are absolutely right that's a great comment brother really got me thinking about just enhancing the motor and making it faster the bike is totally paid for man you are right 100% great comment brother
@@Bigvernsmotolife yea man you're bike is already paid for and it's bad ass do you really want another payment just for some upgrades there;s nothing wrong with your bike bro put in a T MAN there Bullitproof!
I have been watching him down in Florida for a while now do you remember that green CVO he had that thing was a monster I think he sold it to another RUclipsr
Tom, Great Comment, no matter what bike you got it is still going to need a build, we are always in pursuit of more speed and power!!! Thank you for watching and supporting the channel
I'm really loving them!! People don't realize that when you see them in person and you see that technology it blows you away the screen is absolutely phenomenal
Everyone keep saying how the older 128 and 131 are blowing the stock new bikes out the water. Yes because they are stock right now. When the aftermarket businesses figure it out those 117 and 121’s will be running away from all the older M8s lol. Get a new bike if you can. It’s the future 🤷🏾♂️
EPat, I have heard people say the same thing but I bet when the new models get those tunes and you're able to do more with the engines they are going to be crazy I got mad respect for those 128 and 131 and even the 136 those things Rumble but I do agree with you I think the new models are going to run more efficiently and you're going to be able to get more horsepower without sacrificing anything. I really appreciate you watching man and supporting the channel hopefully you stick around cuz I got great content coming your way
Loyal, I definitely feel what you saying my bike is badass it is almost brand new with only 3K me I am really really leaning towards doing the motor and the build. I agree with you about jumping on the bandwagon great comment brother!!!
If you build your bike it won't cost the price of the new one and the trade in value has dropped since HD prices are not that bad but the additional charges WHEEW
Dark man, you are so right you hit that on the nose brother I was in Harley-Davidson yesterday filming for the show and I was thinking about grabbing the new Road Glide the trade in values have definitely dropped. Yesterday I stopped at the performance shop to quote some engine work and surprisingly it is cheaper to do the work than to buy a new bike
Keep that bike the way it is. Pay it off: it will be worth more, then buy a new bike later because you will be saying the same thing then as you are now and you really can't tell one year from the next. That's just me.
Chirs, you are absolutely right my bike is paid for totally and you're right if I buy a new bike now I will be saying the same thing next year LOL great advice brother I appreciate it sometimes we need to hear other people's opinions so that we can make the right choice.
I was going to do a 131 on my 23 RG ST . I went to Harley and ended up talking about the CVO VVT in Silver . That went no where . Got the price on the motor build and went home. Harley called me a week later and sold me that CVO 5k under MSRP . Gave me really good money for my trade . So I took the CVO . End of the day the CVO will retain better re sale then if I did the 131 . The options the CVO has like inverted forks and other features made more sense, how do you pass that up ? Ended up costing me less than doing a 131 . Love the new bike .
Damn!!! That might have been one of the smartest moves ever!! at Harley you played that well when you talk to the salesman for the CVO I bet you were calm and relaxed and kind of acted like it didn't even matter if you got it or not. When you have an attitude like that is perfect because Harley will then try to bend to make you happy instead of the other way around that was a great purchase to get that bike for 5K under and you are right it will hold its resale value way more than a 131 build!!! a good choice my man you are the dude 👊👊
@@Bigvernsmotolife yeah when they called me and told me the deal , they wanted a deposit, I said no . Of course they said you know if someone else wants it we will sell it . I said sell it . If you have it in 3 days I’ll take it .
Seriously...? I thought the vid was about you upgrading or building your bike...? 🤷 *you didn't talk numbers($) or aboit anything useful... 🤔 did I miss something? 😳 Please advise 🙏
BRO! if you continue to watch the video's you would know i purchased a 2024 road glide and im currently upgrading, it as I stated clearly in the video's, everything here is current and flows with the video sequences, thanks for watching

Put the money in it 3000mi. Isn't a lot of miles.
Lloyd, you are on the money man it just simply makes sense to go ahead and build up the motor the bike is brand new
Simply look at the cost of building your bike to what trading your bike in on a new bike

How fast do you need to ride, most of those bikes will run 90mph. They are not racing bikes but traveling bikes.
All right pretty fast the touring bikes will go more than 90 mph and when you add work to the engine they can be pretty fast

DAMN!!! from a 88 to a 143!!!! Did you do the work yourself?
@@Bigvernsmotolife no s&s did lol bought a crate motor
it was a new bike or a new motor i love my 99 to much to get rid of it lol
@Heykidyy that's bad ass, did you have any issues after the installation?
@@Bigvernsmotolife so far so good i dont get too wild unless i want to 14k since install no issues
I was going to do a 131 on my 23 RG ST . I went to Harley and ended up talking about the CVO VVT in Silver . That went no where . Got the price on the motor build and went home. Harley called me a week later and sold me that CVO 5k under MSRP . Gave me really good money for my trade . So I took the CVO . End of the day the CVO will retain better re sale then if I did the 131 . The options the CVO has like inverted forks and other features made more sense, how do you pass that up ? Ended up costing me less than doing a 131 . Love the new bike .
Damn!!! That might have been one of the smartest moves ever!! at Harley you played that well when you talk to the salesman for the CVO I bet you were calm and relaxed and kind of acted like it didn't even matter if you got it or not. When you have an attitude like that is perfect because Harley will then try to bend to make you happy instead of the other way around that was a great purchase to get that bike for 5K under and you are right it will hold its resale value way more than a 131 build!!! a good choice my man you are the dude 👊👊
@@Bigvernsmotolife yeah when they called me and told me the deal , they wanted a deposit, I said no . Of course they said you know if someone else wants it we will sell it . I said sell it . If you have it in 3 days I’ll take it .
Get the new CVO ST
