    Took my challenger last year on the 4 corners of the US trip. All I need was tires oil change and a belt adjustment. Let's just say the harley that went along with me didn't have that same luxury lol. 20k miles in a year no issues

      @@Ridingfish Love it, works very similar to the system I had on the BMWR1200RT I traded in for the bike. Changing the preload on the rear shock is now easier and quicker then having to take off the left panel every time the load changes.

    Bikes generally are personal. It doesn't mean the bike is good the person will like it. I personally, like both Indian and Harley. But honestly after owning both. I enjoy Harley more. Nothing with the bike itself. But the dealer makes all the difference. It depends on the dealer as well from one country to another. I get depressed every time I go to my local Indian dealer. No event or maybe 1 or 2 per year. No update in their social media. No new products or clothes. When I go to Harley, at least there is an event every weekend. If there is no event they will create one. They are very active in social media. They even have news every week on Facebook. Promotion and discount on certain products every month. I will tell you how much joy they did when they deliver my new Harley. Indian needs to educate its dealers on how to keep communicating with their customers.

    I can’t wait to get one. I’ve been waiting for, far too long. Every since I hoped on one, I was sold🙌🏽. Now I just gotta get one😂. When that time comes, I know exactly which one I want. That Dark Horse is freakin 🔥 to me. Plus I just love black. And since I live in Florida now, I’ve seen SO many riders. It’s like it’s motorcycle season all year long here. Gotta love it🤟🏽.

    Totally agree with Tony number two man. You were a big contributor to my getting a Challenger. I rode the Challenger when it first came out and liked it a lot but I wanted to wait and see how it did. Started following your channel right when you got yours. As a fellow Victory owner beforehand it helped me know that this would be the right bike for me. It felt like the only possible option after my XC. Watching you not have issues and get hard miles on helped me pull the trigger on Dec 6th. Thanks for what you do man. Keep the rubber down, and if you find yourself in Colorado let me know and we'll ride.

    Riding Fish. Love the videos. I have been looking at the Challenger since it came out. I own a Harley Breakout but want to get a bagger for long trips. I test drove 2 demo Challengers and both had windshields that did not work. Those bikes take a beating for sure, but the weak link in the windshield is the plastic bushing. Do you have any idea if they fixed that yet? Things like that are stopping me from pulling the trigger on one. Most everything else from the ride quality to the power is what keeps me interested. Harley dealerships are now asking way above MSRP on new bikes. I may look into an Indian this year and jump off the Harley "Stealership".

    • @Ridingfish
      @Ridingfish  2 года назад +1

      So, the windshield are hit and miss.. but they are all covered when they break.. that being said im not sure how many have been breaking on the newer models.. my 2020 is doing ok.. i guess it would tell it doesn't tho!! pull the trigger you'll love it!!

    Weird question for you. Do you notice any different helmet wind buffering with a passenger vs solo? I know that you can adjust the windshield height and you've played with the shields themselves. Damn, I'm off topic on this video, but it's something that really bugged me this week on mine and I'm like "I gotta make sure this doesn't happen on my next one!!"
