  • I just traded in my Harley-Davidson Iron 883 for a 2023 Low Rider ST. I talk about my first impressions of the bike and what I like and don't like about it within the first 500 mile break-in period.

    I’m think this bike should come from the factory with 2 into 1 exhaust and equal size saddle bags.

    I just traded in my 2022 XL883 for a 2023 Low Rider ST this past week. Wanted one for the last year and finally made the leap. Love it so far and enjoyed your video!

    I love my ST. I will say from factory it felt like I was sitting on top of the bike and not in it. But after the forward controls and taller risers it feels more like I'm a part of the bike. Changing the windshield is definitely a must for trips.

  • @fozman007
    @fozman007 Рік тому +8

    Such a cool bike mate.
    The ST models have the Screaming Eagle cvo performance cam in them. So if you stage 1 it you in effect get a free stage 2. As a result the difference between stock and stage 1 is massive on this particular bike.
    Hope you enjoy it 👍

    I just bought this bike last Friday, I went from a rebel 500 , to this. My Insurance also skyrocketted, but that's okay, this bike is beautiful and amazing. I wish the bags were the same size, and like someone else said that they would have a 2 into 1 exhaust.

    I came from a 2019 sportglide, i had forward controls put on mine as i have long legs. The stock screen was horrible for me, but i changed it out for a small SG style screen and that works for me. The air cleaner is quite wide, but with long legs i can still hit the brake no worries. All in all it’s a great bike.

    Get some of these Howard Leight by Honeywell Maximum Lite Low Pressure Disposable Foam Earplugs. They make highway riding much more enjoyable. Somehow they are able to cut wind noise leaving the rest for you to enjoy. You can still hear the engine.

    I own a 2022 Nighster fully tricked out, so I moved up to a 2023 Low Rider ST and I did a stage one and two right out of the box. Love the bike just have three things that should of been on the bike from the factory.
    1) Black levers on a all black bike
    2) LED turn signals
    3) the horn sounds like Vespa scooter. No upgrade from Harley or After market.

    Everyone complains about the bags but it doesn’t make a difference literally I have the ‘23 white sand pearl no on notices it unless I point it out they’re just focused on the fairing the 117 and the color (I have the white sand pearl)

    Cool content. I also own a sportster (and a Pan America). The Pan America has had reliability problems so I got one of these as a loaner for a large tour to the European 120th Anniversary event in Budapest. Something like 1000 miles (1600 km). That's been nearly a month now and I still think about the Low Rider ST every day all this time later. I think this will be my next cruiser. I even took it up to the legendary Furka pass in my home country of Switzerland and it did great. Power, lean angle, compact but not overly so. Fun bike.

    Is sort of funny. I just got a 2023 FXLRS. Love it. Coming from a 2006 R1, the wind seems like a big nothing. When I finally hit 200 miles, I tried a roll-on(6th gear) from 70 to 100 mph. The S takes a long time to get to 100. The thing is so fun and powerful down low but the R1 would be at 150 in the same time it takes the S to get to 100. Probably aerodynamics and HP. Even at 100, the wind didn't feel bad. I gotta get rid of the R1 soon. Too many motorcycles.

    wonder if would be stupid to trade my 21 ultra down to a 24 low rider st with trask turbo kit? its more money than my full dresser for sure and would be paying roughly 115$ more a month for the bike. I do ride passenger often but not long distance

    Did you get a laydown plate holder yet? I installed the custom dynamics with led curved frame without drilling into the fender. Also I mounted my hoster to my risers using Ram Mount and a Surpa hoster.

    • @BoomstickTacticalLLC

    Mine really came alive at about 6000miles, I really dont feel the need to do engine work. Unusually for a Harley it really is a good enough bike in every way that you only add anything if you want to not because you have to.

    • @dennishardy4402
      @dennishardy4402 10 місяців тому +1

      Sorry to upset everyone but the fact is the transmission and engine are tight from new with close tolerances causing extra friction. The bike deffinately accelerates better now and the fuel economy has improved by about 5% now it has freed up. Just my experience, take it or leave it.

    You might want to do some research on the Harley 10" windshield. I have talked to a couple different people that have it and says that it makes an annoying whistle while riding. Just something to think about.
