They fixed just about everything I didn't like about the bike. Only thing left is I'd like a riser with more pull back but that's an easy enough fix. They are tempting me! Your bike is gorgeous, enjoy it.
Congratulations, I'm 64 and my riding days are behind me due to disability. I love the Low Rider ST platform and wish I could still ride. My brother, who is also disabled, refused to let it get the best of him and bought a brand new 2023 RG3 and its definitely keeping him alive. I just can't see riding a trike, when leaning is the whole essence of riding
@@kevinkinney5445 Thank you! I am sorry that you don’t ride anymore. But it’s cool that you are still interested in the Harley world! Stay young and healthy!
That's definitely a beautiful bike, those flames are really starting to grow on me! Waiting here in Canada for my dealer to receive a Mystic Shift Road Glide, and then i can really narrow it down on what color i will go for. Congrats buddy!
Looks great, and congrats! Great changes on the 2025 imo. I have a 23 LRST in white, very happy with it, may trade for a 2025 (iron horse metallic) if/when my dealer can get one. I switched to forward foot controls on my 2023 (I used Heritage floorboards), it made all of the difference… I’m 5’8”. Thanks for the video!
@@teddyvargas9511 I’ll definitely do a video about a new exhaust. Just need to see what comes out, as there aren’t many option for a slip on at this time.
I love your bike. I love your video and I especially love your dog going after those birds that’s what their bread for right on. Gonna have to get rid of that license plate holder. IMO
Nice FXLRST I made the same mistake Parting with my CVO for a 23 FXLRST I have had forward controls installed and the RF speaker system plus the flat out bar and it still doesn’t scratch the itch my 131 CVO SG did
@@talkingrock7011 I hear you! I miss my CVO RG… but in the long run, the Low Rider ST was just a better fit for me. I’m going with a crash bar and the forward controls as well!
Appreciate your video. Could you please do another video to show if the engine has the water cooled heads and the new transmission cover vent for the engine breathers. They've done away with the head breathers on some of the touring models. I'm interested in seeing the setup on your bike. Thanks.
@@BeardedBavarianBiker Thanks for watching! Definitely! I’ll make another video showing those features - though the heads are not water cooled, I did note the difference in the transmission cover!
I checked today! There is no water cooling. There is a vent hose from the transmission cover that leads to the Air Cleaner - so I assume this is the vent, and perhaps they did away with the rocker head breathers…
Hey buddy, I noticed you mentioned Biggs Harley, so most likely you are in the North County area. I bought a 2024 low rider st, and changed the exhaust immediately. I bought a SP designs Big Bore exhaust in all black. with the paint job that I got, it just didn’t look right, and I went with a big bore exhaust titanium. I have that exhaust for sale if you’re interested, if you want to keep your bike all black it would be the perfect exhaust. It sounds amazing! Respond to this message if you’re interested and we can figure out a way to show it to you. The exhaust maybe has 100 miles on it.
@@jbinvegas2000 Wow! Thank you! I’ll give that some thought! I really was wanting to go with a stainless steel exhaust - but am still deciding! Thanks!
Nice bike!! I have a 2017 Roadking special and when mine gets to heavy for me (5.9”) then i would buy the 2025 ST but then the iron horse colour with the red badging. But these ghost flames are real nice too. Keep the rubber down brother! Enjoy!!
@@azadr9231 Thank you! Definitely crash guards - I think I will either go with a flat out bar or the mustache HD engine guard. Still deciding. Thanks for watching!
@@chris.hetherington_realestate Thanks for watching! No, no digital speed. Just the total miles, trip A, trip B, remaining miles until gas needed, tire pressure for front tire, pressure for rear tire, time, and lastly RPM. The analog dial is the only speed indicator.
I think they made a mistake with the speedometer, it should be RPM with the speed digital, not the way they have it as is. Nice bike though, love the paint job. I have the 23' black on black, best harley ever made.
@@kdar93 Great question! It’s really hard for me to tell as it is completely behind the AC cover. I tapped on a tiny exposed part, and I guess maybe still plastic? But I am unsure…. 🤔
@@nealaldous9037 Of course! Biggs HD is an MSRP dealer. So the I got the price listed on the HD website, plus tax, title, license, HD freight, and CA emissions fee. Biggs does not charge any dealer mark up or dealer prep fee. I don’t know the exact price because I rolled in a bunch of parts from parts and service.
Congratulations, beautiful bike! I'm 5'6" and have a '17 Ultra Limited. I'd also like to downsize to a Softail. Originally I was thinking Heritage but that's a bit underwhelming compared to this bike now that they've literally fixed everything I didn't like about it. I'd probably add floorboards for comfort though. Now if I can only find a dealer that doesn't mark it way up over MSRP since this will probably be their hottest seller this year. I'm on the fence about getting rid of my touring bike because resale and trade value is about half what I've got into it and it's paid off, so I'll probably hang onto it until I determine that this one wins out all the time. If I get this in the Blue Burst with chrome trim I'll pretty much have a matching color theme.
@@Big2Wheeler Thank you. I hear you! It was tough to sell my CVO Road Glide, but that bike was just too big for me. While riding down the road it was wonderful, but the slow speed and stops always made me a little nervous. I’m much more confident on the Low Rider now. And being a smaller guy, find that the Low Rider is better for me. I’ll put on forward controls, and a pullback plate and riser - it’ll be just about perfect then!
@PapaBiker I've gone through advanced rider courses similar to Ride Like a Pro and have plenty of confidence in my abilities. I turn 60 this year and no longer have a passenger though so it's just overkill. I test rode the LR ST when it first came out and it felt like a sports car compared to my Limited. I'm sure it would give me more confidence as I age and be a lot more fun. Most of my riding is a few hundred mile long day trips on back roads during weekends anyway.

Wondering, When you're riding can you get a digital speed as well as the analogue?

Thanks for watching! No, no digital speed. Just the total miles, trip A, trip B, remaining miles until gas needed, tire pressure for front tire, pressure for rear tire, time, and lastly RPM. The analog dial is the only speed indicator.
@PapaBiker thanks mate. Beautiful bike btw. 🔥🔥
Appreciate the info.
@ Anytime!
Is it a flat black or is there metal flake in the paint? I got one on order I just can’t tell in the video thank you.
will the USB-C port do fast charging? android uses USB-C too.
@@JCunningham21 Hmm… good question. I’m not sure how to check that. I’ll research it and try to find out! Thanks for watching!
@@PapaBiker when the bike is running plug your phone into it. As long as your phone tells you if it is fast charging.

Okay! I’ll try that tonight
And let you know!

I still can’t tell on the iPhone if it is fast charging or not…. Sorry.
