Saddlemen Step-up on a 2020 Softail Standard
Вставка

- first upgrade HAD to be the seat and I went with the tried and true saddlemen step up. I wanted to know though if that back of the riders seat was truly that deep and made that much of a difference. Holy **** it does.

100% agree i had the softail slim and it was useless until i put the step-up on. that softail standard with the m8 has so much potential.
Does this seat raise you up a bit too? I am 6'1" and stock seems a bit low for me.
But I think the Softail Standard is amazing.
I'm also 6'1"... being tall is awesome isn't it?!?! Haha. It did a bit. After breaking in a bit it has lowered just a smidgen. I noticed it though when I first sat on it.
Ayyy I have the same bike. Looking at the step up as well. Just cant decide if I want the diamond stitch, I think it looks slightly better, or the tuck n roll like you have. The tuck n roll looks a lot more comfy lmao. Also does the seat push you forward a little?
Just a little.
Check out the Whiplash Slipstream Seat
"side wind from a lake" lol yeah them lakes just out there creating wind. I know what you mean tho just made me lol
I have the same bike and I put a windshield on and a new Harley brand seat it's so much better and the windshield is removable in 2 seconds flat
Have you put any exhaust on it yet? I went with some Cobra, I had ordered V&H, but they were on a 2 month back order,,,,Cobra looks great, easy install, and sounds much better then stock, but still not loud enough. So while it will be in storage for the winter, will be getting the 1000 mile inspection and oil change, putting on some Dean Speed Skinnys handle bars(12 inch)and 1st stage air cleaner with tuner. After watching many Vids on exhaust pretty sure I will be getting Rinehart slip ons, I know I don't have to get the tune done with just some slip ons but I figure as long as Harley has it there, get it done for best efficiency. I did install a 2 inch tank lift and man did it give my bike a better looking stance.
Glad you found a seat that works for you, I personally love the stock seat, to each is own. Ride safe
Not yet. Unfortunately I just don't like the stack of the stock pipes with any of the aftermarket slip ons I've seen so I'm eventually gonna go with the bassani sweeper full exhaust. Might also take off the heat shields they come with and wrap them. Don't know about after market air cleaner yet. Have plans for the lights as well. And still deciding between forward controls or just getting the bung king crash bar.
@@pattymac1114 I also considered the Bassani too, but I installed the forward foot controls on mine, now I can't seem to stay off the bike!! even bought some cold weather riding gear, and I hate the cold. For the past 10 years was waiting for Harley to come out with a bike I liked enough to pull the trigger and buy, and wasn't going to break the bank, 3 months ago seen a vid on the 2020 Standard, was at Harley 2 days later and bought mine. Installed 2 inch tank lift, black head light rim trim, Dominion axle covers, front and back, Dominion gas cap, black short stem mirrors, and moved the handle bars 2 inches forward. I bought some Dean Speed Custom Skinnyz 1 1/4 inch, 12 inch rise handle bars, just waiting for them
@@jeffstange9183 I unfortunately don't have the income at the moment to keep going with my customizing. But I wanted a Harley that I could tinker with and not feel guilty about changing but was still new and not something that I had to do engine work on. Flipping the mirrors and replacing the seat are the only two things I've done but those are only the beginning. I'm currently debating ordering some decals and then using them as stencils to repaint the oem air cleaner and the derby cover.
@@pattymac1114 I have matching Harley Davidson Motor Co for the air cleaner and derby covers(black with white lettering) kinda like a retro look, both I think were $80. Of course kept all parts i replaced, maybe down the line, get some air brush design on them
I recently took the mufflers off and have just been running straight pipe. I actually really like the sound of them. Especially once the engine warms up. I'll try and post a video about it tomorrow night.
Pat, I have the same bike, besides putting other parts on mine, I installed 2 inch tank risers from Dean Speed Customs, and with your step up seat the lines of your bike would set it off, its a subtle, but noticeable, and with the risers your allowing more wind to the engine helping it to stay cooler
I've been tempted to do a tank lift. And I know Dean speeds are super cheap but great quality. Right now I'm in a financial pickle as to what I focus on next. While I WANT a new exhaust its not necessary for me to enjoy the bike. I might replace the stock foot pegs with mini floor boards.
@@pattymac1114 yeah, currently I'm having VH big shots on mine along with a set of Deans custom handlebars, not cheap, sold one of my firearms to help pay for
@@jeffstange9183 Exhaust, mini floor boards, id like to get quick release sissy bar and saddlebags, few other things here and there... but I also am not gonna dump all the cash on it at once. Also, all my guns were lost in a boating accident shortly after election day. It was weird.
@@pattymac1114 I figured as long as Harley has my bike in winter storage for the next 3 months i would get all the work done instead of dropping it off and waiting 1 to 2 weeks for each upgrade I do, and they discounted a lot and I got the storage for free
@@jeffstange9183 ah. Here in Texas I dont really have to winter store the bike. Every now and then we get a good riding day.
Thanks brother! How much was that?
Right around 500 on Revzilla
Yes I do love the Harley Davidson softail standard it is a beautiful bike and it is very customizable it’s just kind a hard to get parts right now have to have patience working on getting a seat so I can ride safely and comfortably and feel confident it is scary with that solo seat that they have with the bike stock but it’s not about you don’t take me out of context go see the guys at Reno Harley they are good all of them especially guys at the parts counter and John the salesman and Steven and Jeff and Marcella I’m not sure if I’m seeing her name right but you’ll know where when you see her she’s a beautiful young lady lady
Won't any street bob parts fit this bike?
How much OTD was this bike? Thanks 🙏🏻
About 16k
@@pattymac1114 did you do any packages or did you just do standard?
@@Bradwelbornfineart just standard.
Btw, I was wrong. About 13800 OTD. The other 2k came from the ESP I cancelled. Lol.
How is the passenger seat on this seat?
Never been tested. Sorry.
Come on dude...I have the same bike with the stock seat and no windshield. I hit the same speed plus more and it was not even close as bad as you make it out to be.
Do you wanna go ahead and take our pants off and compare dick sizes? You know, just to get to the point.
@@pattymac1114 No need for that...just ask your girl.
@@lespaul1648 hahaha. You probably can't even find yours you're so fat. Hence why the wind has no effect on you. But post some pics or videos... channel with no content actually trying to talk shit... too afraid to show your face? Or do you not fit in camera frame?
@@pattymac1114 Lol! Good come back bro...for a third grader. I can guarantee if you saw me you wouldn't be saying that but all is good. All I was doing was commenting on my experience on my bike compared to yours. But you took it to heart. So because of you taking it to heart you should place your man card on the counter and your lady will bring it to me tonight. Also...don't post video's if you cant handle constructive criticism. Its just not a good look for your followers. For real what do you expect on UA-cam? Not all comments are going to be what you want to hear. But how you handle those comments determines your character. And this time my friend...you took an L. But all kidding aside please ride safe.
@@lespaul1648 In all seriousness I'm not offended or anything silly. But you have to admit everything you said about taking shit too serious can be flipped on you. Hahaha. Nothing wrong with a good ribbing though. As you said. Ride safe.
