And Old, but pretty informative video suddenly comes a gem 💎 I’m looking to buy the new Low Rider ST (Comming from an Road Glide) My hips cramp up, with these high mounted mid pegs, on the softail models. And the floorboard brackets where my headache, cause I only could find them in chrome. Of course- the Fat Boy 30 anniversary 👆 Thanks man 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

@Vabstanggtless Жыл бұрын
The only thing I'd say I miss about the pegs is grinding the boards when I lean in hard. You lose around 2° lean angle (from 28° to about 26°) but it's a small quibble given the comfort factor. I wouldn't even consider switching back. And no, I haven't done the brake yet, but I plan on it eventually.

Which floor board is best for low rider st 2023? Those of slim or fat boy?
@Vabstanggtless Жыл бұрын
It's personal preference honestly. The Heritage Classic/Slim models run half moon boards, whereas the Fat Boy boards are teardrop shaped. I prefer the teardrop as it seems to fit the shape of my sport glide better, and they look more aggressive. Plus the main resting surface is further forward, showing me to comfortably rest my heels and turn my feet outboard of my pedals.
