I finally rode the Harley Davidson Road Glide Special! You keep asking my what I want my next bike to be and I keep saying the Road Glide Special, but I needed to experience it for myself! This is my VERY first time test riding a 2020 Road Glide Special up at Farrow Harley Davidson. I can't believe how quickly I fell in love with this big bike! What do you think? SHOULD I BUY IT?

HEY Thanks for checking out my new video! as I mention in the beginning, this is not intended as a "review" video. This is just my very first experiencing test riding the Road Glide Special! Let me know what you think! Idk if my opinion on the bike was very clear in the video ;) Obviously everyone's personal taste and aesthetics are subjective.

Hey Jess, get some Legend Revo A shocks on the back of your Dyna. It'll cost you about $1800.00 for them, but that will super improve you ride ( Maybe Legend Will give you a deal if they understand that you're an "Influencer"', you could sport their stickers on your bike and give 'em some love on you channel). Your Dyna Girl is perfect for the type of riding that you're doing on your channel, meaning around town with some long trips once in a while. I have a Road King and I find myself wishing I had a Dyna or a Softail for riding around town. You know, cuz those bikes are 200 lbs lighter than mine. My Son has an FXR and he is always complaining when he rides my bike, that wrestling that big O' Hog around town is not so fun. Maybe try an Indian touring bike next?

I rode a Dyna Wide Glide for about 10 years, then I found myself bumping into a love for the Road Glide and bought one. I still love a ride on me Wide Glide but the Road Glide is my traveler now. I’m on my second one and I have it stoked up with a cam and some other cool weather fighter stuff. I am happy as all get out that I finally made it to the Road Glide. It changes a person’s biker world. It gets a lot bigger.

Try the road king, same bike no fairing endless options of fairings, and of course a seat that takes you closer to the controls. Kuyriakyn sells spacers for the floor boards That moves them out about 1” and helps that bow legged ness feel go away.

I ride a Dyna and rented a Street Glide Tour. I liked the Street Glide for the first 30 minutes of an 8 hour ride. Then I realized that the floor boards are too high, handle bars are too low and you are locked into one position. I couldn't wait to get off of it. I have ridden my Dyna across the country a few times. Definitely rent one for a day before you decide.

Edgar Machado oh no. I wasn’t that smart. I bought it had it trailered to my house because I didn’t know how to ride, load, strap, unload one. Sat on it about 10 minutes figuring out what all the buttons did and spent like an hour in a parking lot learning how to move it and then took a 200 mile trip to work on it. My only mode of transportation for an entire week. So it was learn how to ride it or don’t go to work. 😂

First Harley I road was my 2020 RG Special. I love it. I had to crank the preload on the back shock up a lot to get the back end not to be so hard over bumps. I’ll want to upgrade rear shocks. The handling is really quite good. I think everybody should own one.

I have switched back and forth between Touring and Softail. I always go back to the Softail/Dyna. Even if I handle it great on the road, slow manuevering is a pickle and takes alot more energy. I am 5'3" and just sold my Road Glide Special for a new Sport Glide and love it. My 10th Harley since 1995. I dont have to worry about backing out or up in angles or gravel etc. Going camping by myself on a Road Glide would be hard to manage. Ride Safe!

I love my 2019 Road Glide! I've had 2 open air bikes and a Street Glide. The Road Glide beats them hands down! The air cleaner IS after market. It's a stage 1. That's why it's in your way. It sticks out about an inch further than the stock one. I had the same problem with my clutch for about the first day. It's hydraulic and after about 50 miles it'll loosen up and feel easier to squeeze than your Dyna.

Yeah, I recall the Iron 883 Jumpstart "test ride" I had. They warned me that Harley clutches are pretty stiff and hard to find neutral etc when they are new. Personally I had no problem finding neutral and found it to be very precise and not "sloppy", but I am also a total newbie that is currently only licensed for 3 wheels automatic.
