- While I wait for the Low Rider ST to make it down to New Zealand I'm absorbing all the info I can find about the bike, even the smack talk. Here's a selection of what the detractors are saying about Harley-Davidson's newest bagger.

I bet Verlin is a good laugh and life of the party 😂
😂😂😂 Yes, I think Verlin puts the "F U" in fun! 😂😂😂
Ouch. I feel sorry for the keyboards of all these outraged nimrods. I can just imagine the deafening pounding of the poor defenceless keys as all that pent up rage seeks to find an outlet. Quite sad really. Look forward to seeing your Low Rider ST journey 😎
Haha! You sure have a way with words brother! 😁
In 2018 my wife and I were in Paris at the Louvre museum. Literally, the finest art, from the finest artists the world has ever known. I followed a group of people that stopped at every painting on the wall to criticize it. Painting after painting they reviewed, complaining about the color palette. complaining about the brush strokes. complaining about the technique. All I could think of was "with all this art, you can't find a thing you like?". Why stop and criticize what you hate. March through the building until you do find something you like and then spend time looking at it. IMO, there is no reason to even make a comment on social media about a bike they will never buy or think is ugly. Makes no sense. Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder. Find the machine you like and love it. Let others find their machine and let them love it. Looking forward to your impressions of your new bike when you get it.
Thankd for sharing that experience, its a great analogy brother 😎👌Looking forward to seeing this bike in the flesh
What a joke these people that LRST is Nicest place I’ve ever seen
I’ve ridden my sort glide for 3 years mostly with my wife pillion, I’m hoping the ST will be an improvement for us, more travel in the rear shock will help and a firing that works without shaking my head ! I also think twin discs up front is there just in case I need them.
If I were the engineers at Harley and had the final decision making I would have created the Lowrider ST as a more module type of bike where you could have a faring or no faring a choice of fairings plug-and-play with the fairings that might have some electronics where it is all removable by one person and a choice of bag options because everybody’s going to change the exhaust plus I wouldn’t have the exhaust come out each side, or at least that be an option at purchase
Love this Video guys so well done, I laughed the entire time!
Happy to entertain you bro 🤟😎
Great content thanks and by the way my ST arrives next week at least we all have one thing in common 2 wheels always and stay safe
Didn’t even hide their usernames. Savage. Can’t wait for mine to come in this week!
I didn't as they're publicly available comments and my approach isn't really to deride the commenters rather than allow the viewer to make their own judgement. It's all very psychological 😉👍
That last guy forgot beards. Beards don’t make you cool either. Signed, A bearded man.
Hahaha! Yeah they do 😉👌
The right bags always been smaller for the exhaust on all models lol.
The st is a direct result of customer input and what harley riders have been aspiring to create thru the aftermarket catalog since the fxrst and fxdxt.
They need to keep the old model back to the original 1977 low model.
I used to be a victory rider and swore off Harley’s forever. But once this bike came out, I said , “if I ever go to Harley it’ll be for the LRST” welp…. It happened, went to the other side. Never thought I’d leave victory. No regrets
Welcome to the dark side 🤟😎
hahahaha !! The last guy perfectly summed up the harley riders around here. It's like they're stuck in high school. Strange how different areas breed different maturities. Some places people ride with anyone and everyone, some places you have to ride HD to be part of an old man cool club. I wish a name on a bike didn't matter.
You know we'll ride with you any day brother 🤟 We don't really have too much of that elitism here in NZ, or at least none that I've seen, which is good. Mind you NZ is so small that you can't really get away with being that way or you'd be shunned from polite society 😁
@@Anton_G_604 I've ridden every brand, pretty much. I've even been on a lunch run with a group of 40 HD riders while I was on a Yamaha. lol. That would NEVER happen here. hahaha !!
@@MisterKiwiRider Ya, I've ridden with everyone from choppers to scooters, and have ridden the same. Bikes are bikes. If it's got two wheels, I'll like it.
I've ridden H-D since '94. Bought both my sons Indians as graduation gifts
Hey bro. Watching and hearing the "expert" garage queens having a tanty is way more fun than watching Loony Tunes. Bless, Goose.
I really like the lowrider ST and I think this bike will be the pinnacle of the softtail cruiser era, but I do agree with alot of the common opinions, matching bags, a proper gauge cluster and some better colors (snake venom) would have been nice. If i was in the market for a new bike right now id be looking at the indian chief darkhorse. I do look forward to seeing what HD does with there new engine in the cruiser range over the coming years though still a while before I can look at another upgrade.
Sound feedback brother 🤟
😀G'day Bruce , Great job on the video. Yeah I've seen many designs of Bikes over the Years (as an example) from the Japanese and thought to myself, Dam, that designer must of had Saki for Breakfast and Tea LOL. Anyway, after all the criticism Good and Bad on this Bike , your gonna stand out and to be Honest F--k what everyone elses thinks. Its your New Bike and its all about Riding . So Lets see this Bike In NZ. 👍👍Cheers paul🍺🍺🍺
Well said as always Paul! I recently test rode the '22 Low Rider S, which is the foundation bike for the ST. It rips! Can't wait :)
I love them and can't wait to see yours
Me too. On both counts 😁👌
Buy and ride what you like, It's you that are riding it. That is why there are so many different makes and styles of bikes.
True words right there Big Kev, cheers! 🤟
But does sitting on a Harley, with a black leather jacket, and long hair, and tattoos... Does that make you cool? 😉
Interesting it is the best selling HD at present, must be something right about it.
I’m pretty sure riding any other bike besides a Harley Davidson approach is treason
Kia Ora can’t wait to see your review on the bike have 2020 Lowrider S with a few goodies and love it New sub🇨🇦🇳🇿🤙🏾
Morena brother, just subbed to your channel too 🤟 With a bit of luck this week I'll get a chance to test ride the 2022 Low Rider S (ST doesn't arrive for several weeks yet). It'll be cool to check out the slightly altered frame geometry and that mighty 117 💥. You'll be getting into your spring season over there. Enjoy the rides! Nga mihi
@@MisterKiwiRider Morena I try to ride at least one day every month over here riding season is short packing miles on already this year
Handling on the new platform is ten fold have both dyna and new S over 200kmh no comparison can’t wait to see what you think 🤙🏾
Kia ora for the vid bro …Quite funny when read lol 😎
Nga mihi! A bit of a laugh while I wait for my ST 😁👌
@@MisterKiwiRider how long they looking to ship down here?
@@HabitualFixation it was supposed to tentatively leave the factory today but with availabilty the way it is I'm not sure that will be accurate.
@@MisterKiwiRider ahhh! Like moving Xmas day for you. Patience I suppose post pandemic etc, sure it’ll be more than worth it
@@HabitualFixation I'm sure it will 🤟
Came across this channel as same love of bikes laughed my tits off love
It!!!!
Cost too much is my personal opinion but I could say that for most of the Harley lineup. 2-1 exhaust with matching size bags would have solved many of the complaints. However I can’t figure out why people are having issues with the fairing. One dealer here in the states literally was offering the same packages to do what Harley did and they had a waiting list. Guys are playing over $2k for 80’s FXT fairings and having to mod and paint them. These haters buy a low rider and build it your way.
Good feedback. Interesting to hear about the waiting list for the custom fairings. Cheers 🤟
I like it and am getting it. I got my hater blockers on.
Nice 😁
It's cool looking bike not fan of the bags but didn't like them on Sport glide either
Haters gonna hate. For me there is no other bike that looks as good as ANY Harley. The ST is sharp looking and the ONLY change I would make would be putting forward controls on it. People who don't like Harley's have so much pent up aggression towards them and the owners. I love all bikes and have owned Yamaha and Kawasaki and was proud and enjoyed them, but now I ride a Harley.
Agreed, forward controls are a must :)
These are going to sell as fast as they arrive in dealerships. Everyone that is customizing low riders, or any softail for that matter are building to the same look and extras the ST has. The loudest voices in the room are often the most ignorant. I've been to at least 6 custom bike shows recently and despite what these haters are saying.... this is what's hot right now. Can't wait to see your thoughts when you finally get your hands on it.
Cheers brother. I've been following the hashtag #lowriderst on Instagram and everybody that is picking them up is super happy with them. I can't wait 😎
what, no one said it looks like postman pats bike 😂😂
😂 His had a sidecar didn't it?
@@MisterKiwiRider 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like it but o well
Talking smack. Lol. It’s a great bike.
Hate the haters lol 🤩 love the whole ST . Can’t wait for it to come to Oz 😊
🤟😎
That last guy must of never been invited to do cool shit!! Hahaha ... Maybe badmouthing the bike community helped him with his insecurities. Lol
He's just mad because his mom beat him up, and stole his lunch money.
Always like the way the haters never have the testicles to use their real name!
I'm UA-cam famous now!!!!!????
To be clear; I'm not hating on H-D. I just think they would have been better served fixing the flaws on the Sport Glide instead of re-releasing a fairing design that wasn't very successful the first time they came out with it.
Gonna take a guess that last comment was from a Royal Enfield rider...
Cheers for your good humour Dean 🤟😎 I totally appreciate everyone has different views and I just wanted to showcase those. Yeah, that last one. It sounds like he's been around a very specific subset of Harley riders for too long. That, or he has no idea what "cool" means 😁
I keep picturing a guy with a soul patch, wearing skinny jeans and a turtle neck...
@@deangullberry5148 😂👌 now I am too 🤣
@@MisterKiwiRider You're welcome
A lot of butt hurts out there! The bike certainly has its faults but doesn't any? It's one of the Harley's I'm most interested in at the moment, I quite like the fairing. Colours are sure limited, I'd want one in bright fuchsia if I was to have one (I'm serious). That'd really upset some people! haha
Agree the colours are limited. To be honest, if I ever have the money I'd paint it up in Candy Apple Red with flake 💵🍎🤟
Everyone has their opinion. In my opinion the look of the headlight is ugly.
Cheers V6. For the most part I won't have to look at the headlight 😉
@@MisterKiwiRider true 👍
Well..... Harley-Davidson is a manufacture of a range of products and like all manufactures some of the products produced are good and others are total junk additionally making profits is the key primary focus to satisfy the shareholders and nothing else. And unless one is a shareholders of a company becoming passionate over any manufacture of products is a clear sign of cognitive impairment.
That was deep brother! I think I'm cognitively impaired 😆
Meh, hair is long because I like it long. Does it make me cool? Not really. I get a lot of folks asking me about my sexual orientation. 😅
Tattoos are from having a hipster girlfriend for a decade and her thinking they were cool (rubbed off on me, she’s gone… ink stays. Not upset either of those things).
HD: I’ve met cool Harley people and I’ve met my share of dudes who think they’re the baddest thing on two wheels, or magically transformed into a kind of road-touring pirate…
This bike: not a fan of the saddle bags.
The rims are alright(ish). I don’t have a problem with gray (although for the price, I would probably go with a Ducati X-Diavel). My current budget, I’m thinking Honda Shadow or Kawasaki Vulcan…
Awesome feedback! I literally want to be a road touring pirate!! 😁👌
They really ruined the concept ot LOW LOW RIDER
Hi guy's I meant unsubstantiated now lol 😆
Why harley didn't put a 2 into 1 exhaust defies logic. Then they could've had even sized bags. Looks bloody ridiculous from the back. Harley should stick to what they do best.. Tee shirts and hoodies 😁cheers 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🇳🇿🏴
