    Hi Ty,
    I’ve put 18k miles on my 21 Street Glide, and I love it, but you are slowly turning me into a Road Glide fanatic 🤣, that bike of yours is amazing!
    My biggest problem with Harley is probably the same as most,, I paid 22k for my FLHX, and yes, i love it, but I’m not bye any means rich, I’m a construction worker, put 3 kids thru college, then bought my bike,,,, THEN,, and this is the toughest part,, yes it is a ton of fun personalizing our bikes,, but right out the door, to immediately do, LED’s shocks, seat, bars, exhaust, it adds up! I am happiest when riding, I’m sure most if not all of your followers feel the same, it would just make things a bit easier on Harley’s dedicated consumer base, if out the door, they had some of the necessary extras already part of the bike..
    Sorry for the rant! I love your bike, keep the videos coming, ride safe!🏍️

    Wait, so you're telling me an off-the-showroom-floor Harley DOESN'T need a seat, suspension, bars, shield, stretched fender, 65 more horses and 78 more torques? OK, I get that you did bars, but no big 6,000-watt stereo? SAY IT ISN'T SO!?!?!?!

    I have the 21 FLTRK 114 and it’s more than adequate for what I need it for. I did put Revo A on the rear and that made the bike 100% better in these E TN curves. The bike always wanted to push right in the curves but the Revo A solved that problem.

    • @TyFromTennessee

    If the seat is no comfortable, it goes. Save it and put it up for safe keeping. Writing as many miles as you do it's worth it. Same with rear shocks, even the factory ones that were on your ST are 1 inch longer and way more comfortable, or get Wilbers, same height as you have but ride good.

    • @TyFromTennessee
      @TyFromTennessee  9 місяців тому

      For sure man. I think I'm going to start with rear shocks first and then decide about the front. Wilburs is an excellent choice. Thanks for your time today!

    Great review Ty. I have watched several of you videos. I love my Anniversary Road Glide and have gotten the comfort increased to a nice level, 14" bars, rider back rest, highway pegs and even have my Cardo and Android working through the infotainment system. Have a 3K mile trip coming up in a few weeks and that will determine if I keep the factory seat in place. LOL. Definitely want to upgrade the suspension as it seems to hit far too hard on bumps. Thinking about Legends but not air ride. If you're in the area, CMA meeting tonight at Chef LIn in East Ridge, eat at 6:00, meeting at 7:00.

    I was thinking of changing my seat until I added the Legends Revo A's, they took out all the vibration from the road surface and made the seat a non issue. I have riden over 17 hours on my Road Glide and really the last couple of hours were getting uncomfortable but I think it was more heat on my ass related than cusion breakdown. If you decide the seat is under Parr then I would do shocks first and keep the pretty seat....
