Amen brother! Don't know how many times I've looked at that compartment on the left side and thought-MAKE-IT A LITTLE STORAGE UNIT!!!

Recently dropped big cash on a 2019 SGS with two-tone paint and completely agree with your 5 changes. I'll add 2 more that wouldn't cost Harley much money. 1 - cover up the fugly front axle nuts with black caps. 2 - put something better than the $.99 grips on the bars. I understand they want you at the parts counter immediately (HD = Hundred Dollars), but when you drop $30K on a bike you should get a little more.

r ypma spot on! I didn’t leave the dealership until the crap grips were replaced! I’m still not sure I made the best decision buying a Harley when the Indian Cheiftain clearly was more for the money

Before I picked up my 18 SG 115 Anniversary edition I had them do a stage one, wim module, heated grips, and the antenna in the faring. Picked up some Ciro3d front turn signals and rear lights as well. Still working on getting the LED headlight.

The lack of power locking bags and forks on non-CVO models is one of my big complaints about the touring models... the reason why I say that is because there is absolutely no option to add it after the fact either like there is with everything else on the bike, there is not even any 3rd party aftermarket options for this. Why is power locking bags such an exclusive thing that's only reserved for CVO models... there is even options for the 117 motor with a stage 3 or 4 kit but no power locking bags.

@snakebite6511 2 жыл бұрын

seriously? how hard is it to bend over and lock it

@pjboudwin2730 5 жыл бұрын

Even though I'd never buy the special for the fact that it's a blacked out look which has never and probably will never be my style I agree with you on everything but the the phone capable to tie into the bike like you can with most cars these days but that's my personal preference on how I ride I do it to except the cellphone and the whole social gatherness I like the CB option so you can ride with a group and communicate on things like gas and dangers in the road and that's about it but I also love my music so I have to have tunes coming from the speakers but as far as the blacked out look everything should be black and I thought they all came with LED light at my local dealership they do which just may be something they do and jack the price and automatic locks should have been a thing with Rushmore project I'm surprised it didnt happen then anyway that's just my comment stay save and always watch for those who are not watching for you.

People still use a CB? seems very 80's

@pjboudwin2730 2 жыл бұрын

@@snakebite6511 no not many people use a CB and more most people use sena bluetooth headsets which is usually only good with full face helmets which I don't wear and with them when you're not talking to each other its just dead air or you hear what they hear and I prefer to listen to my music from the speakers not from a headset so with the CB you you have to hit a button to communicate back and forth so the conversation becomes limited to things like I need gas or giving directions not last night I got drunk and went home with a 2 that I swore was 10 or conversations about the area we are in and past trips we had there on other bike rides like you would do riding with someone in a car. thats why I personally prefer a CB on a bike

@hoosierhippy8982 4 жыл бұрын

I strongly agree The Street glide Special should come with LED lighting , not sure but are they trying to keep the price down ?

@snakebite6511 2 жыл бұрын

there are so many options out there that people want to add their own style to the bike. Ive seen people add a $50 LED headlight and ive seen people add $700 LED headlight. Part of owning a Harley is having the ability to change anything i want to anything i want and make it work for me. Personally, i like Harley just the way it is and being able to add anything

People need to stop whining about what they think Harley should or should not have. I own 3 Harley's, 2009 Rocker C, 2014 Dyna Wide Glide & 2021 Street Glide. Part of the enjoyment is personalizing each bike to my taste and not have it look like everyone else's. Harley is a "For Profit" business, they make the best motorcycle around which is why we buy them, but to also have the ability to upgrade and personalize to anything we want, i dont want my Harley to look just like the guy across the street There is a reason i dont ever buy "Special" models, id rather use the money to personalize and get what i want, i dont need the 114, there isn't much difference between the 114 and 107 anyway. Whether you buy a Street Glide standard or Special, you still need to upgrade the shocks, seat, full exhaust (headers & mufflers) air filter and it still needs a tuner so to me, the special is a waste of money
