Thank you for another great review sir. I just got the same bike and was concerned about the “lack of the rear brake pressure”. Use to having forward controls so this was an adjustment on the mids, but I am 5’10” and it’s somewhat comfortable. Not happy on positioning/location of shift lever. Hoping to resolve that when I take her in the get my Bassani road rage 2 in 1 exhaust put on soon. I’d recommend that HD start taking the time to invest in safety functions such as lighting. Yes, the single halo main headlight is great, but I swapped out the amber turn signals and brake ones with LED’s. Ones in rear have red lens caps and work in conjunction with the main rear tail light now as well. Other than everything I’ve mentioned, the bike is fantastic and the torque is unbelievable!

Jerry, Beautiful bike, Harley will sell a bunch! I agree with the other guy, Im a chrome and black guy, I have a 2019 base model low rider in chrome and black, I think its one of the most beautiful bikes out there, I get so many compliments on it. I was really hoping Harley was going to bring a 2022 chrome S version out, I was planning on buying it on the spot. The salesman at my Harley dealer don’t understand why Harley dont have a chrome version he gets so many request for chrome.

I have a 2020 Softail Standard. The rear brake wasn’t performing at all. I adjusted the pedal height. It didn’t help much. I went to my dealership and they bled the rear brake. It made all the difference in the world. I don’t have or want ABS and I can lock the rear brake easily on purpose. Works for me.

These ST’s are going for over MSRP here in DFW area of North Texas, getting $5k over MSRP. Adam’s HD and their 6 stores. They said they think the whole country is selling them at over MSRP. I understand supply and demand creating pricing spikes but MSRP should be enough to cover the bills. Consider accessories adds, shop time and loan interest profits. It truly becomes a beautiful thing. It’s Harley Davidson, and besides all the Hedge Fund managers, Attorneys and Accountants gotta ride to. But I digress. Oh yes. The bike is very sweet.

Yeah unfortunately they only manufactured 300-ish STs for the entire nation of H-D dealerships. Basically one for each dealership. Probably to gauge demand but all it’s served to do is enable predatory sales practices. Come on Harley! You should know better!

The LRS is such a classic looking bike, every time one would pass me by I'd have to do a double take, so finally decided it was time to trade in my Bob for it.

Take whatever engine they aren’t charging markups for and throw in a cam.

@motorman857 Жыл бұрын
I don't think there's any comparison. Do you want the genuine item, or a cheaper knock off? Then when it comes time to sell or trade, Indians resale value is not nearly what Harley Davidsons is. Then there's the after market support and the huge dealer network H.D. has. There are plenty of Chief Bobbers laying around at dealers. Finding a Low Rider S can be challenging. There's a reason for that.
