I’m 66 & a lot of folks can’t believe I’m not on a bagger or trike (LOL)! Nothing wrong with either, I love the nimbleness of a cruiser & I can ride as far as I want. Keep up the great videos!

Sportsters Forever!!! Welcome to Sportsterville, young lady! My first was a '56 KH. My last is a '93 I bought new. Still got it 'cause it does everything I want a bike to do and it's been dead reliable. It's only got 111k on it and it'll cruise at 80 on the interstate. It's the beat bike Harley makes IF you know what to leave stock and what you can modify.

I love my 2018 48. I modded it a bit, but I love it! I have 7.5 inch Biltwell frisco bars, led headlight, black headlight trim ring, led brake master cylinder fuel gauge (super clean!), Diamond HD black Fuel cap, screamin eagle plugs and wires, vance and hines short shots, s&s teardrop intake, vance and hines fuelpak 3, smoked lenses front and rear, side mount led license plate, smoked led tail light with license plate light deleted since I have a side mount plate now, black trim ring for the rear tail light, HD medallion that covers the fender holes for the old license plate mount, black led oil temp/level gauge with black bezel surround, 4inch led tach/speedo with all kinds of cool features, swing arm saddlebag with a 1.5 litre fuel bottle, black HD derby cover and black chain inspection cover. I am in the process of ordering parts to do the 1250cc big bore kit with cams, push rods, tappets, pistons and jugs with all kinds of performance goodies. It is a super fun bike and gets lots of compliments but you absolutely made the right choice if you are looking for something to travel long distance with saddlebags and whatnot. I can travel because I have the 7.1 litre small tank with a fuel gauge and 1.5 litre fuel bottle but most 48 owners only have the 7.1 litre tank and that's it. Sportsters are super fun bikes especially if the engines are opened up with a stage 1, but the aftermarket is never ending for them! I'll either be picking up an Indian FTR1200 or new Fatbob 114....or both🙊

I didn't own a car in 1979, just a bike. Owned several bikes since, some salvage. In 2019 I traded a 2005 klr650 sold, to buy a 2004 Harley. The klr rattled me, hurt my physical issues at a older age. A road bike, I can ride for hours. I bought a 2004 FXSTD soft tail duce. It's a cruze bike. It had 5,000 miles, a garage queen, then I got it. Babied bike, my new freedom.

Always dreamed of owning a HD and had an 883 Iron for about five months. Over that time I quickly figured out it wasn't suited to UK roads so I swapped it for a Honda CB650R. However I can't think of a more majestic sight and sound than a group of HD riders coming down the road on a summer's day.

Great video! Growing up it had to be a Harley for me so when I had the means I landed on my 07 Roadking. I will always have my Harley but in winter and a little adventure it's much safer warm and cozy in the garage. After many bikes and dollars later trying to find my perfect winter/adventure bike I've ended up with a Royal Enfield Himalayan. Much to my surprise Royal Enfield is just as rich (and older) in history as my beloved Harley. Just from a different part of the globe. Ride safe. 👍👍👍✌

I have had dyna fever for years. I'm rocking an evo sporty currently. All of my harleys have honestly been sportsters. I'm a fan of the sporty line, so versatile and easily molded to your taste. That being said, I recently purchased a Buell xb9sx and I am not a sport bike guy...that i know of. Stay tuned for that lol. Also another unexpected purchase was a 2003 Piaggio Vespa scooter that I have sort of fallen in love with. I just like bikes! With my dyna fever, I am also looking hard at kawasaki klr 650 bikes. I'm not even particular about the year. I just want to be able to ride forever and camp off road wherever I decide to stop. Okay, the end. Thanks for sharing content, dig the channel.

I owned two Sporty's since the 80's, but in 2004, I bought the same Dyna FXD that you're riding. I absolutely loved that bike. It was my daily driver, and I even rode it from SoCal to Sturgis. Comfortable, powerful and good looking. Ran like a top. I sold it for health reasons a few years ago and have been kicking myself since. I sure hope HD comes out with a new line of cruisers to replace the Dyna's because they were great bikes.

The 2020 Low Rider S...Awesome bike !...it is fast at take-off and at acceleration speed on the hwy, a lot of torque and power and doesn't feel top-heavy into curves and cornering with the 180 rear tire that it has. Besides that,it is Really fun to ride weather you are out on the country roads or cursing down the hwy. This bike is what replaced the Dyna's...So feel free to make it Club style all the way with the risers and appropriate fairing as well. If you choose to check this out and decide that you can do this and love it,It would be great to see you doing a video of this experience👍. Keep Living The Dream 👍😎🇺🇸.

Just an observation, i went from a 1972 Triumph to a 2008 Ultra fully expecting the Ultra to be like driving a truck compared to the Triumph. It wasn't, it was just as nimble and agile on the road as the Triumph. I guess what I'm saying is don't be intimidated by a touring bike, they just don't feel that big on the road. Just don't try and lean them at low speed, they fall over, but you can pick them up by yourself. Please don't ask how I know. I've only seen a couple of your videos but so far I'm liking them. Keep the good stuff coming.

Hello from Columbus! At 1:20 I was like wait I know that picnic basket! I have a Yamaha 1300 tourer, a sportster 883 and a Suzuki 250. I’ve taken both my 1300 and 250 cross multiple states but my 883 is clearly a city bike. Longest I’ve gone on my 883 was an hour outside of Columbus and it killed my butt.

I have a 1989 Honda Shadow 1100 I’ve had it for 13 years. Most reliable bike I’ve ever owned. One day me and the Miss’s stopped by the local Harley dealer to look around. Two hours later... finished the paperwork on a 2011 Ultra Glide Limited. Love this bike. Unbelievable on the highway, easy to ride in the city, smooth as silk. Kept the Shadow though, still ride it.

I owned a 1986 Shadow 1100 for 24 years. It was still near perfect when I sold it. I've ridden a 2008 VTX1300C since 2013. When the kids are out of the picture I will get serious about a HD Ultraglide. I've always been leary about the typical rumors but you only live once. My sister has a low rider but we don't talk bikes much.

Cool video. I've had 3 Honda's and 2 Harley's. The Honda's were great bikes. Can't complain except they had more plastic than I like and didn't put as much effort into paint and chrome. That said, I didn't have problems with my 02 Ultra but I sold it because I didn't have time to ride for a few years. My current Harley is an old school 91 Electra Glide Sport. It's had some things done to the motor for LOT more power and totally reliable. I wouldn't hesitate to ride cross the states on it. And it's got a thunderheader exhaust on it so it sounds good. Cool to see you enjoying yours so much. I would say this however. If you seriously want to pound out miles, nest time go ahead and try out a Road King or a Standard. They aren't as much to handle as you might think and they are very comfortable in the long haul.

I too, love Harley's! I ride a 2007 Sportster 1200C Custom, it has the forward controls like the 48 you mentioned. I know a lot of people consider a Sportster either a chick bike or a starter bike, but I don't I have been riding Sportster for decades and have never felt a need to upgrade to something else. I have it converted it to a semi-cruiser, as it has a much softer seat (still two up), throw over HD leather saddlebags, different (louder) Vance & Hines pipes and a windshield. I also got rid of that wire spoke front wheel (I hate wire spoke wheels and they rust like crazy). Put on a really loud air horn and got rid of that 5 3/4" headlight and go a 7" housing and upgraded to a Trucklight brand LED light, I didn't like the one like you have ever since my oldest son put one on his Sportster. It seem that when you are going on really curvy roads with on lights but your own, each time you turn the bar of light is either shinning on the ground right next to you or out into space on the other side. Can't see the side of the road on the side that centrifugal us trying to push you towards (not really good on high mountain roads). Also installed a flasher on my brake LED light so they flash fairly fast for 5 times before they go solid (5 flashes is the most you are lawfully allowed to do in California). Also added a few more red LED light to the rear too. You have to make sure they can hear and see you, as static lights and soft horns don't get their attention around here.

Sportsters are NOT starter bikes nor just chick bikes in any way shape or form!! The only bike Harley has that might even be close to a starter would be the Street 500/750. Sportsters are great bikes, especially for a get around town bike.

I learned about you from the dual vlog you did with Blockhead. I've been enjoying your videos. For this video I really liked hearing your journey through the many bikes to finally land on your Super Glide. One of my favorites, second to the Low Rider. I noticed in your second video you initially put a Memphis Shades Gauntlet fairing on it. And soon after you switched to the Road Warrior. I assume the Road Warrior was chosen because it fits your more touring riding style, but I'm curious how you liked the Gauntlet. And also the reason for your evolution away from the Gauntlet and the mini-apes into the T-bars with Road Warrior.

I'm 43. For some reason I decided I wanted to start riding motorcycles and in Alabama all you need for the endorsement is to pass the written test. So I took the test shortly after my birthday in 2018. I sat on that for a while before decided that I wasn't going to just buy a bike without going through some training so I signed up for the riding/safety course that Harley Davidson of Pensacola, FL provides. I did that in the middle of February in 2019. Three days after passing the course I bought a HD Street 750. It was a great bike for me in the beginning since I was still learning but it wasn't great for the interstate. In November 2019, I traded the 750 in for a HD Iron 1200. I love this bike! I'm not leaning forward too much and it's easy to handle and great for the interstate. I honestly don't see how anyone can be comfortable on an actual sports bike. My back would never forgive me if I got one.

30 bikes. 7 were Goldwings. Lighter has been better for me. After multiple rides coast2coast, Canada, & Mx, the most fun, talked about, and shared c2c was the Silverwing 600cc scooters. I let my bride talk me into getting another cruiser which is the Honda Shadow Aero. And like she says, the Grom puts a smile on your face that you can't get off until you leave the bike. Handlebar position and the seat make all the difference in long distance ability. KZ's were my 2nd fav bikes. Anywho, this was a great video. A real story about rider finding her bike instead of just brand brandishing. thanks for sharing.

I wanted a forward controls cruiser and looked at soooooooooo many Harleys. Didn't bond with any of them. There was always something I really didn't like. A friend suggested a Triumph Thunderbird Storm. Had a test ride and bought it. Harley's might be the benchmark but the Storm is superior in every way that's important to me. Don't need a backlash from HD fanboys as I love Harleys but they're just not for me. In the UK at meets there are cruisers of all shapes and makes which is always cool. Love the channel.
