That’s awesome !!! Congrats on your purchase !! If I could afford one o would have had it a day after riding the first one we got lol

I agree ! Harley was smart to get into the adventure touring world !! They are great bikes….just a pain in the butt to work on haha, but with new technology and engineers they make life hard on us techs lol

Thanks dude that’s very kind of you

Oh yeah I was obviously pretty stoked about the suspension “whooooo doggie” 🤣 yeah I wasn’t at first but I realized as a brand and as a company the look has to evolve to stay relevant

Totally. The suspension is ideal.

@TomGlander yes it is 🤘

Glad you liked it !

Thanks dude !!

So with the new 24’s you now have the ride mode selection like the PAN….just not the adjustable suspension.

Thank you !

🤣🤣 that’s awesome ! I like that

Hahaha I ain’t slippin yes FXDX, sportster sports have been the only models to offer a great suspension, I guess I should have been a lil more clear, FINALLY !! On a touring bike ! Thanks for keepin me in check 🤙🏻🤣

what color is that FXDX ?

@@VtwinRevolution my DX is Black on Black. I was working for my local H-D Dealership and had ordered an ElectraGlide standard but being as I was 30 years old and all my friends had FXR’s or Dyna’s i not only didn’t want to be the “old man” in the group but I also didn’t want to be the one who stored everyone’s jackets, bags and crap! 😜🤓

Haha, man….if you would have said smoky gold I would have offered both my boys up as trade 🤣🤣jk That smoky gold superglide sport was such a SEXY BIKE 😍😍

@@VtwinRevolution ah yes I concur definitely! ✌️

Do you have the aluminum luggage or the hard plastic ?

Yes the ST even though it’s a non vvt motor has the exact same crankcase breathing system as the 23 CVO, as a matter of fact all 24’s have this breathing system. The air thats created by the pistons on the down stroke is vented through the crankshaft roller bearings, into the cam compartment where there is a passage that goes through the crankcase into the transmission housing, then up to the trans top cover/ breather system. Inside of it there are some baffles to stop the early heavy oil, then as the oily air continues its path it has another bend to slow it down further to separate more oil and there is another passage that the heavy oil drains back to the oil tank. From this point it goes up the rubber hose and into the breather where all the magic begins Is this the end all be all…..probably not, but in looking at the design it seems like it’ll have a much better success rate

@@VtwinRevolution Definitely appreciate your insight. Do you believe there will be less carbon buildup over time than there was on 2023 and older models? From what you described, it does seem that venting the trans top cover to a catch can may still be a good idea. I did that on my 2023 RGST and now that I'm seriously considering purchasing the 2024 CVO RG ST... I would do the same UNLESS it's just not going to make any real difference. Thanks for your time and consideration.

Yeah, with that new trans top cover being the actual breather system there will be companies that offer their own spin on it and may incorporate a trans breather as well but it’ll be a hot min before something is on the market

I agree…..the cost of these bikes have gotten out of control!!! I reaponded to another comment a while back and I agree there are other manufacturers that offer better suspension on stock bikes it’s one place it seems like Harley refuses to upgrade. BUT this new CVO ST does have some pretty amazing suspension

40K FOR THE CHALLENGER ELITE. YOU DO THE MATH.🤡

👍🏻

Haha

@@VtwinRevolution GREAT FUN REVIEW BRO...WOOOO DOGGIE!

Thank you !

The PAN is an awesome bike ! Still a few electrical bugs to work out of it, when Harley went to the dual BCM it made the bike very voltage sensitive so hopefully this year they got it taken care of. They changed the battery used in the PAN

I’d love to own a pan am but they made this bike tall so us vertically challenged even with adaptive rider height some of us still can’t even get close to touching the ground.

It is, I went over specs that a salesman wouldn’t know….whats wrong with being excited about a well put together product ?

Yeah the cost of these bikes are sickening…..

I won’t deny that….ive seen cranks out that much or more brand new….most fall within .002-.003” runout. It’s a production vehicle and you’re gonna have stuff that slips through that shouldn’t, happens all the time with any manufacturer ! But the bikes have gotten better over the years.
