Literally every Harley owner can vividly remember the day they either rode a bike home from the dealership or accepted home delivery of their bike! I realize this was posted in 2017 and it´s now 2021, but I hope you are still enjoying your sweet ride!
I like reminiscing back in 1972 I bought my first Harley sportster which was a new 1000. I bought it in Bay City Michigan but I lived 18 miles away in Midland Michigan and it was early spring about 57° I had a 18 Mile ride and froze my ass off driving home as I wore a light jacket. I get a kick out of watching this guy as I can remember the excitement, I am almost 74 years old now so hope you have as much fun as I did
Congratulations on joining Team H-D! That said, if I were the delivery guy, I'd have refused to start it up. I would've insisted you do it. It's your bike, it's your honor.
Could be part of the delivery. Bike fucks up or you drop it on the road it could fall back on them. Delivery driver puts it in your garage or driveway, hands you the keys and their jobs done. Maybe starting also shows it was working fine when we dropped it off
I think they do it to make sure the bike is in top condition when delivered imagine the guy just drops it off there and leaves and when the owner fires it up it doesn't the company won't take the blame nor will the delivery guy
Great bro!!! I remember my first HD, 1st pipes, up grades, pain job and on....i rode it even to the grocery store 1 block.from my house, around the block before going to sleep, staring at it in the garage, it was a dream 😂.
Been riding sports bike most my life, my last being a Busa….. BUT Decided to buy a Harley! It arrived at my home the same way. OMG I was grinning all day! Rode it and then understood why people love these bikes so much…. There is nothing refined about it, raw noise, clunky box, humour for brakes, and debatable handling, but I absolutely love it, more than any other bike I’ve ridden. Any excuse then I’m out riding it! I call it my “Time Machine” as it transports me from my 66 yrs to 30 at the press of the starter… Thank you Harley Davidson.
Honestly this video brought a smile to my face. It reminded me when I got my first Harley, an 2012 iron 883. Eventually I traded it in for a softail. I still think about my sporty.
There is nothing as sweet as the first time you hear your 1st Harley! Or...in my case, my 9th Harley! Your 48 is sweet and sounds amazing! Dreams fulfilled, congrats!
Who cares, neighbors suck anyway and they should mind their own business! The contractors and builders are the ones to blame for building homes so close together! 😂🤣😂🤣😂
I came across your video while researching a 2020 Harley Roadster. Saw the Winnipeg on the delivery truck. I grew up in the Peg. Great looking bike. Wake up them neighbors!!! :)
Never rode a 48, but they do look good. My only gripe is the tiny tank. Not going to make many friends in group rides, when everyone has to stop for you to fuel up twice as often as them. But for solo excursions, I could see them being pretty badass.
@@Hero_of_Legend l have to stop with my wife roughly every 70 miles, 85 max. But the 48 is one hell of a damn good handling bike, l didn't believe the Harley shops. Several told me it was one of the best handling bikes, but l used to ride sport bikes and hate Harleys lol. I ate my words, it is sharp handling almost to the point it's scary how fast it reacts to your input.
@@GixxerFoo Hey, if you like sport bikes, look into the new Harley-Davidson Bronx. Yeah. They make a crotch rocket now. As for the 48, as I said, I've always heard good things. I would just have to put on an aftermarket tank, for better capacity. That's all.
@@Hero_of_Legend I'm curious to see how that new Bronx performs, Harley said horsepower is going to be north of 115 but nothing official yet. I wish my wife would get a bigger tank lol, most 48's I see have the 3.5 gallon off an Iron. I love my 4.5 on 1200 custom, l get about 150 miles out of it.
@@GixxerFoo Exactly. I don't know why they bothered having a 2.1 as a stock feature, instead of the 3.3. I understand them not going with the 4.5, since they want it to look old-school. But the 3.3 would have done just fine. And I used to love my Sportie, when I had one, but I'm a lot happier with my Softail Deuce. 5 gallon ( technically 4.9 ) tank, with fuel gauge, and the famous Softail suspension. Can't be beat, my friend. But I never had a problem with a Sportster, either. Anyway, happy riding out there. Stay safe!
When he started it up the bloke was so excited. Mine got dropped off the other day, I was like a kid. Brought n paid for, very proud moment. “Those Harleys they cost so much money, a Honda was all he can afford…..” DAC.
Congrats dude...not sure why people watch this then talk crap...Presumably it's your money buying it and you're going to be the one riding it...so go figure! An old biker dude once told me when I bought my first road bike (an 89 Virago) and was almost embarrassed by it compared to his Harley, that at the end of the day I was still in the wind, and that was what mattered...I now ride a Harley and a Ducati both and could care less about the next dude's opinion...so anyway I'm done...ENJOY!
yeah exactly, its the ride that matters...that's what riding is all about...its not like a harley will guarantee you the best time. It depends on your attitude and just your enjoyment of riding
You had the bike delivered, seriously. Damn, Ive owned so many bikes, cant recall ever having a bike delivered before, must be a new age thing, something like ordering food from the supermarket and having it delivered.
Im figuring if you spend 15-20K on a bike, you would want to pick it up and ride it, as soon as possible.I personally have 3 bikes, 2 Harleys, I sold one not long ago so at the time I had 3 Harleys plus my old chopper, when I bought all of mine, I went and picked them up as soon as they were available to me, but different stokes for different blokes I guess.Ive been riding on the road with a license now for just over 45 years, still ride every week summer or winter.
I had mine delivered because it was to cold to ride it in the first place due to ice so I had no choice. But looking back I would probably have it delivered either way.
My first HD was a 48 but I don't remember getting that many miles. Maybe 70 before reserve light came on. I took a 200 mile ride with another guy and his wife once and I filled up 4 times. I was so afraid I'd run out of gas, I just stopped at every opportunity.
As a first time owner of an HD last year, I relate to your obvious excitement entirely. I went short shots on mine, but the deeper, extra cackle is so very worth it, my friend.
dude...I couldn't wait to hear mine for the first time either! Although I choose not to ride anymore due to an accident, I felt the same "Rush" again, after I heard your bike!My Motto..Ride hard, Ride safe, Bring the noise!
I don't put that shit on my sport bike, for several reasons. One I don't feel the need to attract attention to myself, Two the sound is annoying. three I have this idea, that a billion dollar factory like Kawasaki , are capable of building a much more efficient exhaust system them some clown with a Crecent wrench in his garage and tuning it better!
*I don't understand why sound is so important to Harley Neanderthal* That is generalizing all HD owners including owners of said bikes you like. *I wonder why loud straight pipes on a sport street bike is so important to sport riders* I simply just reversed what you said. So see how it got you upset? That is how HD owners feel with your comment. Like how you called me a fagggot for riding a springer when I own a 650R and a zx10R. Your logic makes no sense.
What I don't understand is why you keep defending that Harley junk if you ride a fine of bike as a ZX10R? When I worked for Harley dealers, in the old days, I and my fellow Harley mechanic both rode Kawasaki Z 900 . We didnt go around preaching how we liked Harley

For a t-shirt company Harley makes a pretty nice bike.......
All Ball
That's actually kinda funny.
I own 1 Harley but about 2 dozen shirts I didn't pay for.
Sad to hear they are closing their KC plant due to low sales.........
Anyone can appreciate a good joke. I got a good laugh
Joke? What joke?

When I bought my brand new 18’ sgs the dealerships employees, all of them, started a bike and revved them. It’s was fantastic!
My delivery guy did it for me. I was gonna do it myself but he did it so quick and I was like dude.. whatever
I’d rather them do it, cause it’s rare you’ll get to see from a 3rd person perspective your bike move under it’s own power.
Could be part of the delivery. Bike fucks up or you drop it on the road it could fall back on them. Delivery driver puts it in your garage or driveway, hands you the keys and their jobs done. Maybe starting also shows it was working fine when we dropped it off

Left handed hand shake was a bit weird! 🤝
Had camera in right hand.
Only weird if you ain't fly like these chaps.
Thanks! Please follow my page!
I thought him getting off the bike on the right side was weirder
Left handed hand shake is disrespectful to most. Especially to military.
Gorgeous bike, best wishes for years of riding and enjoyment ! !!
James Parsons that’s a bitch bike
Richard Burns
Lmao you're a squid 😘
How much for one like that monthly
Bobby Jackson for a little bitch bike like that?...it’ll cost you your pride and respect from others.
Richard Burns , what would you recommend
There’s really nothing like your first Harley. I’d be lying if I said the guy’s excitement didn’t bring a tear to my eye. Congratulations!
I own 2 just not a brand whore I've never felt the hype
My first Harley is my first ever bike! Still learning to ride on it ('94 S&S Sportster)
“You want it in the garage?”
Uh no.... get off my bike so I can take it around the block first.
No doubt 🤙
Yeah
The noise that comes from a harley is one of a kind!! awesome!!!
He should've let you start it
Thanks! Please follow my page!

My first Harley was a 1975 xlh 1000
I bought my first road bicycle last year and few days later my wife caught me staring at it. I know exactly how you feel. Wanna get a motorbike soon
Love that sound. Now That sounds like the heartbeat of a country.
I like your excitement on the bike brother! it was genuine, thanks for posting the whole experience for us to share!
It was awesome to hear the happiness and love for your new bike. Made me smile. Enjoy brother.
The delivery driver looked like he went in for a hug..but then got the left handed handshake.
Shiiiet.
his expectation got subverted lol
Been riding sports bike most my life, my last being a Busa…..
BUT Decided to buy a Harley!
It arrived at my home the same way.
OMG I was grinning all day!
Rode it and then understood why people love these bikes so much….
There is nothing refined about it, raw noise, clunky box, humour for brakes, and debatable handling, but I absolutely love it, more than any other bike I’ve ridden.
Any excuse then I’m out riding it!
I call it my “Time Machine” as it transports me from my 66 yrs to 30 at the press of the starter…
Thank you Harley Davidson.
Honestly this video brought a smile to my face. It reminded me when I got my first Harley, an 2012 iron 883. Eventually I traded it in for a softail. I still think about my sporty.
Bro i dont decide , which one do you think is better between 48 and iron? I see de gas tank is to much biger in 48 but is that matter ?
Man nothing quite beats hearing your new bike fire up for the first time. Awesome video!
Getting a new bike is the best feeling ever!!! Asowme good for you man!!!
There is nothing as sweet as the first time you hear your 1st Harley! Or...in my case, my 9th Harley! Your 48 is sweet and sounds amazing! Dreams fulfilled, congrats!
Beautiful Harley Davidson sounds really great
One of my favorite the "48".... Amazing looking bike with a beautiful sound
You did a great job of filming the driveway and your finger.👍🏼
Beautiful bike. Nice to see the delivery guy happy for you too.
"Your neighbors are going to hate you!"
Who cares, neighbors suck anyway and they should mind their own business! The contractors and builders are the ones to blame for building homes so close together! 😂🤣😂🤣😂

Ah! A fellow pegger! Great to hear from you and thanks for the like a comment. Live to Ride!!
I have a vrod but the 48 model is always my favorite Harley maybe one day I get one to!!
That is one righteous looking 48! Love it!!!! All the best with your new Harley Davidson!
You sounded super happy! Ride safe!
Congrats ! Nothing like your first Harley .
I know exactly how you felt in that moment. I love my 48! People give sporties shit but they handle better than any other Harley imo.
Harleys are shit. But the sportster is actually the best built one.
Looks and sounds awesome, buddy. Congratulations on the new bike!
I love my wife's 48, I really enjoy using it on my channel. It is such a fun bike to ride!! We have done a lot of work to it!

James Matheson Had to get mine delivered because I’m 20 years of riding I never bothered with an endorsement. Lol
Had my last bike delivered also. What’s the big deal?

Great looking bike. Congrats. Have many years of safe riding and enjoyment.
Fuck that! I wouldve said get off lemme ride it real fast lol
They have to '' deliver it '', imagine the client drops it or something.
Real fast into the garage?
Real fast need another bike that's a harley they are not fast
lmao
I'm buzzing just watching this! So exciting.
Congratulations...and exciting for you dude. I am about to get this horse . Can you share your feeling after ridding.
I would be in tears... I feel for this guy! Beautiful bike.
Forty Eights are nice bikes but I just wish they would put a bigger fuel tank on there.
Thomas Lopez then it wouldnt be the 48
This is true but I guess that's why I went with a Softail instead. :-)
I like the looks of the Forty-eight but ridding only 90 miles between a gas stop sucks! Superglide Rules!
My first HD was a 48 but I don't remember getting that many miles. Maybe 70 before reserve light came on. I took a 200 mile ride with another guy and his wife once and I filled up 4 times. I was so afraid I'd run out of gas, I just stopped at every opportunity.
Thomas Lopez Yes! My buddy has one and we are constantly stopping for gas!!!
Congrats..Wish you all the best with your new bike !

Wow that is a gorgeous machine!!!!
Congratulations !!! Amazing bike !!!
Love your passion for the sound!!
Sounds and looks really good. Bad ass 4 sure
All the neighbors must have been pleased when he said " it's louder than I thought " great , just fuckin great.
