After having the bike a year I thought I would do a quick video on the modifications I have carried out on it. Playing around with the GoPro on a sunny Sunday morning I thought it might be a bit different to combine the two videos and show you a bit of the Berkshire & Oxfordshire countryside while catching up on the mods. Hope you enjoy it and its of some use to you.

I also run a car detailing channel and am always costing people money with new products I review. I hope the mods I have are giving you a few ideas as to what you can do. some you may like and some not for you. The video on the alarm siren is one to be careful about as it was a nightmare job and not one I would want to do again as it was so fiddly. keep me up to date on collecting the bike and what your plans for it are. Martin👍

Thanks for upload...done a number of mods myself...recent ones being the Memphis Shades handguards to take away that windchill off the hands and just waiting on some heated grips to come in and get them installed as I will be riding over Winter. Loving the Kuryakyn Hex floorboards I put on and made a recent 2200miles ride so comfy...mustache guard also handy having somewhere to stretch the legs out on as well.. I'm not going for a replacement seat yet as I find the standard one is good enough atm...but jury is still out as seats just cost sooo much. :)

Great job Sir! I've added the same HD grips and a set of Kuryakyn Hex floorboards to my SG. I also added the 4" pullback risers, what a difference they make! I also installed the Memphis Shades hand guards; they help in the cold and all year long help to deflect the road trash and hard shell bugs. 😝 I replaced the stock fairing with an El Diablo fairing from LA Fairing Co. Coupled with the upgraded risers, I have room to attach a small bag for extra bits of kit. I thought about going with the HD mustache engine guard, it looks great, but went with the Bungking crash bars instead. I like their looks and they're stronger than the HD engine guards. Thanks for sharing your mods. Deep up the great work and ride safe!

That's one cracking Sport Glide, love everything you've done to it especially the all chrome exhaust contrasting with the gloss black paint (awesome tank graphics on that model) and I'm not usually a fan of those big air cleaners but I agree it's just a perfect match here. I really enjoyed the ride too especially since your son just so happened to buy my dream bike! Do you happen to know whether he got a custom smaller license plate made, and where I might find that axle mounted plate holder? Great video thank you and belated congrats on your stunning steed!

Hello Andrew & thanks for the positive comments on my bike, appreciate it. My Son had just picked the bike up from the dealership the previous week. We both bought our bikes from Sykes in Sussex, a really great dealership that prides its self on building long term relations through great customer service. When he was enquiring about the bike he mentioned to them that he didn't like the stock number plate so they changed it free of charge.So unfortunately I have no info on it but Im guessing its an HD part🤷‍♂️. He has just received Vance & Hines Hi output slip on mufflers from them with a big discount. Ride safe mate👍

Hi Thomas, glad you liked it. Riding around on local trips the stock screen is fine and I love the look but having been on a few longer trips especially on motorways I have been looking at a bigger screen but have seen differing views & they are not cheap especially if they are shipped from the US. So I have found a reasonably cheap 12" screen that I have ordered to try out. If it does the job I may go for a better one but thought I would try it first. As soon as I get it I will do a quick video on installation

I'm late to the party here but I'm curious about the risers. I'm 5'7" and I wasn't sure 4 inch risers would be enough for comfort. I get pain in my shoulder blades and upper back on longer rides because I'm slightly hunched. My sport glide is a 2020 and I'm just trying to figure out if I can get away with the more reasonably priced risers or do I need to upgrade the bars. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
@My_bike_and_me
@My_bike_and_me 11 ай бұрын
Hi Jerry, my honest opinion is you may want to give the 6" risers a little thought if you suffer from shoulder and back pain on the longer rides. I guess you will have to decide on the look of the current bars versus whatever new bars you have in mind. Im 5'6" and I get on fine with the 4" but I don't do a lot of long rides. If I did then I would seriously consider the 6". Either case, higher bars or 6" risers you will be hit with the added expense of new longer brake & clutch cables. Hope that help a little

Hello from Austria! ... Congratulations! ... Great looking bike with real cool mods! ... Question: 4-inch-pull-back-risers - when installing them - did you have to change the 'standard-cables' too? - are they too short for the use of these risers? ... I'm real impressed by this new LED-indicators with extra light for better visibility! (What brand is it?) ... Is this standard wind-shield tall enough for you? ... Have a great and secure bike-season 2023!✌🍀🌅🏍
