Harley's Most Comfortable Motorcycle ! Heritage Classic Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 бер 2024
- I Have riden the Harley Davidson Heritage classic in 2 different occasions fotr a total of 1500 miles and at this stage I am comfortable to give a good and deep review of the bike . I think that the Heritage is Harleys most comfortable bike in the softail line up and I dare to say even the most comfortable bike among all Harleys period ! Unless you are taller than 6" foot I think it offers a very natural riding position letting you put down thousands of miles in great comfort.

Agree the focus from Harley is all the touring. The Heritage and other softailsvare amazing. But bring back the Deluxe as well
I have a 22 Heritage Classic and I love it. I added the matching tourpak and it has all the space I need.
I've had bikes most of my life. I said I'd NEVER own a Harley. I sat on a Deadwood Green/Black 2021 Heritage Classic and fell in love instantly. It fit me perfectly. All my bikes are tall. I could flat foot the bike. I bought one a few months later. I've already put more miles on the bike in 18 months that I did on all my other bikes combined. Just got a Russell Day Long seat and we will do our third Iron Butt in June. Love your channel! Thanks for all the great content.
Thank you buddy. I absolutely see a heritage in my future
I own the 03 Heritage Softail Classic 100 year anniversary edition,EFI,the most comfortable bike I’ve been on,she is a cruiser and I ride her wherever I may roam🤘🏻🤘🏻
I agree, I've had a 2006 Softail Night Train, 2009 Dana Fat Bob, 2020 Softail Low Rider S, and 2021 Softail Sport Glide. I always steered away from the Heritage because the styling wasn't appealing to me. My dad talked me into getting a 2023 Heritage and now I'm sold, it feels much bigger and more comfortable than its size being the same frame as my last 2 softails. The Sport Glide was my favorite Softail until I started riding the Heritage!
I have the 2022 Chrome edition. I agree, this is the most comfortable and maneuverable Harley that I've ever owned. I traded in my 2018 Street Glide for it and don't regret it at all. I've put more miles on it in 2 years then I did on my Street Glide in 4 years. I've been riding Harley's for over 50 years. I'm 70 now and plan a cross country ride this summer.
I ride one of these in New Zealand with a 21 inch after market screen. I'm 6'2" and was getting a lot of wind on the top half of my helmet which was blurring my vision. No wind on the helmet now and I can see the scenery with no blurring. Thanks for your enthusiasm about the Heritage Classic.
The smile tells me everything I need to know! Love it!
Nice review keep up the good work Holy Shift
Nice review, Sandy. I had a 2015 fatboy and 2018 fatboy. Now have a 2020 Road Glide. I can say, out of the box (stock), the fatboy and heritage are the most road-comfortable out of the lineup. You can go anywhere with comfort without doing a thing to it. The suspension is perfect.
I have a 2018 114 anniversary model. I think it's the best all-around bike, Harley makes. I have a Low Rider st also, and my Heritage is my favorite.
Thanks for the great review of our Heritage and thanks for your patronage of our rental services. Everyone of us at the shop agrees that the Heritage is one the best riding Harleys that's available in our fleet. Great to see you back again for Daytona
Thank you very much for your great service and hospitality again ! See next year too brother!
my wife ride on her '18 heritage and it's an amazing bike ! very comfortable, powerful and nimble ! we customized it with Hard Bags and fairing for her comfort and it's perfect now !
Those laced rims allow tubeless tires. HD puts a lot of R&D into their motorcycles. Roll the throttle forward for 5 seconds at startup and you'll put the bike in parade mode for cruising the boulevard yet keeping the motor from overheating. Heritage 114 rocks for sure.
Everyone says the same thing about that bike, very comfortable
Helmet on ground behind bike means biker in distress. Great video though sir. Have an blessed day sir
No just means he had no where to put it and didn’t want it on the bike while filming the bike 🤣
@HOLYSHIFT 🤣🤣 I figured sir. It does mean biker in distress though. Have an blessed day sir.
Absolutely beautiful old school rock and roll looking great bike with 100% comfort. I like in black with white traditional chrome and also bright colors like yellow, red, green and blue with sparking flicks. Greetings from Baku Azerbaijan.
It’s a great ride👍
my wife rides a 2021 Heritage and she loves the bike!!
The Handlebars r stock 👍
Greetings from Germany
You can't go wrong with the Heritage Softail, they are awesome bikes, I'm 5,7 at 160lb.I have a 2003 Anniversary Heritage Softail with 50.000 😎 been to Sturgis 3 times with it,and road all the time from Reno NV on it. No problem 😊 😎
I own a '22 Heritage Classic an absolutely love it. I have taken long trips with it and find it very comfortable. I traded my '17 Ultra Classic for it and with the exception of storage I think it is a better bike for me.
Great video Sandy, and quick review. I never rode one, but I sat on one extremely comfortable very nimble feeling but I agree 100% with you. I don’t like those bags and that little those buttons whatever they are on the bike I think if they replaced them with hard bags, it will be much better seller, thank you for the video
I agree with all you said. The bumpy look on the seat and bags to me is unappealing. would be better with a stylish hard bag. Good job Sandy.
Nice bike and review, never rode one, gonna have to try it 👍🏼
It’s a great bike !
I agree with your view about Heritage~!
Most comfortable bike in harley I have been to ride 😊
I'm good with my 2019 CVO Street Glide ! 💪🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺😁 ! Love your videos
Great bike, rented one for a day from Eagle Rider in Washington DC and it has the power to cruise at 95 mph in that 6 gear with ease and nimble enough to maneuver well in thick traffic and is extremely comfortable! Will be buying one in the next year or two. Good review but I love the gator studs over the shiny buttons!
I have this bike. I agree the riding triangle is the best. I rented a street glide and road glide and if i was doing long haul rides those make sense. But if riding around on backroads, heritage is as you say more nimble. I added a Hogworkz tour pack that would be on a bagger and it makes all the difference when riding two up. One thing I dont like with the bike is the seat as it doesnt provide lumbar support. Getting my first Saddlemen seat in a few days.
I have a 02 and a 06 Heritage and they are awesome. I enjoy a Road King also.
Can't go wrong on any HD softail motorcycles. Most are overlooked because of the touring bikes.
I agree
I had a 2011 heritage class before I bought my road glide, it was a really nice riding bike with the great styling
Heritage in 21 had a Deadwood green that was beautiful.
I like the Heritage too.
I've been lovin' my 22 Heritage for the past couple of years now. No looking back. I'm 69 and found a bike I can ride well into my 80's. Very easy to ride. Way easier than my old Sportster.
Getting a heritage next year, hopefully
Holy Shift, your helmet is in the road.😂
Was wondering same 😂
Good review, I also never liked those rubber rivet looking nubs on the seat and bags.
I have a cammed 2021 114 and it is my favorite bike I have ever owned. I replaced the stock seat and removed the tank bib to get rid of the studs. Only ones are on the bags when I have them on.
I totally agree, from the front fender to the rear a timeless look and when riding you like you are in the bike and part of it as opposed to sitting on top of it. I have a 2021 Heritage in the Deadwood Green/Black with chrome engine trim and at every stop someone will complement the style. I guess that's why they still make em after all these years. My only complaint
Is that they should have kept the chrome studs and ponchos on the seat and bags, the new black nubs look cheap.
Nice review, thank you. That is my dream bike currently ride a 2015 Honda Shadow Aero. Just can’t get myself to spend $25,000 on a motorcycle when I can only ride it 5 months a year in Western New York. I take my Honda out in March and April and get 6-7 months of riding then have to wash it before putting it away a real pain in the ass. but I won’t ride a $25,000 bike in the salt in March or April. Salt isn’t off the roads until early May. Would love to be a snow bird during winter maybe someday but for now I shall remain in the land of the frozen from November to May no global warming in Buffalo great place from May to October but frozen, salt and snow from November to May!!
Good Grief!! I just want to ride my bike!!! Maybe I should learn to ski, been thinking about that I retire in July and will need something to do during the long, cold winters that I have grown to hate.
Go Bills!!!!
Love the Softail & Road King bikes. They do need more attention.
I agree with you and i don't like the studs on the seats either but its still okay. I have a 2020 heritage classic V107 and its all chrome and black. I don't live far from you so if you want to ride it no problem.
I used to own a new 2004 Heritage Softail in Lava Red Glow with the 88 counter balance engine. I traded it in for a new 2007 Ultra Classic. I miss that Heritage. I now own a 2016 Road King, hence my moniker.
Everyone says how comfortable this bike is but is there anyone out there who stands at 5'6" who can tell me what it's like to ride?
Really like this motorcycle. I have a 1998 Road King that I really enjoy riding but was hoping to upgrade to a new one soon. Alas, Harley removed the RK standard from the lineup and the special just doesn't do it for me. I think I will consider the Heritage. And it looks to be about 100 pounds lighter than my RK which is helpful. I am heading toward retirement and not getting any younger. I don't mind the trim on the seats. Not sure how I feel about the lower windshield black out. Is it translucent or is it really black? And I wish there was a cast wheel option. The spokes do look great but are certainly more maintenance. Nice review though.
$39k in Aussie looked at one yesterday it was Chrome motor & font end looks a bit better than the black
I had a heritage that i loved but traded for a street glide thinking it would be better......No! I should've kept my Heritage. Oh well.
my wife loves the heritage, not my thing though
I tried one out last summer. It probably just doesn't fit me... I am 6'1" with tall torso, and I found the aerodynamics around my helmet made it a no-go on the highway. Otherwise a nice bike. and beautiful.
would have been great if you've showed how it sounds!
Good bike for someone 5'10" or under. But for someone taller get a touring platform
Have you shipped your X440 to the States ??
They look even better if you get rid of the dog bowl on the front axle..mine is a nice Root beer brown they call it Rawhide
I will swap my 2020 Road Glide special next week for a 2024 Heritage. I have enjoyed my RGS but it is kinda heavy and not that fun on the smaller back roads :)
I’m with ya. Being able to relax a bit more has real value b
Hi! I am 6ft10 do you think it can fit me? My fat boy ‘22 was little bit small .
You are too tall for that bike in my opinion. Try the Road king ! That would be same concept but for tall people
the studs are the Heritage I might be wrong but maybe woman might prefer them over men they discontinued the bike I liked the Deluxe
What jacket are u wearing ??

Sandy why is your helmet on the ground?
I wanted it away from the bike while I was filming the video. Im in a remote parking lot not on the road
I have a 2022 Heritage. Loved the bike when I road tested one when the new frame first came out.
Laced/spoked wheels are not for me on a road bike even though they look good. So no purchase for me early on.
Once I found out summer 2022 that Harley was offering the Heritage with cast aluminum wheels I bit and purchased mine.
11,500 miles on it so far. Set to ride from southeast Pennsylvania to Myrtle Beach bike week in May this year. May take her to Wheels Through Time in Maggie Valley North Carolina on the way back to Pennsylvania..
Want to see if I can get some time this summer to travel to Ohio and visit the Honda automobile plant and the Honda Heritage Center also in Ohio.
Bro is that your bucket 🪣 layin in the street 🤨
Why did you signal you needed help during your review? {Putting a helmet behind your bike is a signal for help.} just so you know.
I love the Heritage but I can't get over the ugly bags.
Further to my last comment Just bought a 2018 with very low km (13,000) but it has a recall which has to be addressed and Harley is looking after it. A great bike for sure !
