Gidday Bruce and Relle, Well done on the New Bike. It looks amazing. Yes its a big commitment, but Hey, You only Live once and you deserve it. Ride Safe and look forward to seeing it in person one Day. Cheers paul
Nice congratulations.. i have the FXLRS and its a great ride, the fairing looks like its worth a think about... we get our share of wind here on the SI West Coast.. look forward to watching you as you ride it round..
Great to see both of you. Bruce well done on having the courage to check yourself prior to the purchase of the new ride. Enjoy mate it’s a sweet looking bike 😎👍🏼
it's great to see your video about the lowrider ST. last year i was deciding on which model to buy was the lowrider or sportsglide or heritage & decided on the heritage so when i heard about the this year lowrider ST i thought oh bugger i should have waited but seeing your video of the ST i see there were no gauges inside the fairing & got 3 ventilation holes i thought that's not right & cost aussie $35,000 here where my 2021 heritage only cost me $32,000 ex demo( retail $34,000) i'm glad i made the right choice also i liked the long front guard it'll protect the oil cooler & the regulator & a detachable windshield it was handy for riding in winter. thank for your video cher bro 😁
Cheers Douglas, I'm very happy to have helped in your decision making process and it's nice to hear that you are happy with the bike you chose. Enjoy the ride!
Aww, its such a good feeling for sure. This ST range is stellar. Jason, the dealer principle has the ST Road Glide that has been amped up to the 131 and all cammed and tuned up. Its a beast!
Awesome guys, glad to here you got the Low Rider ST, always good to get a good price for a trade-in! Relle is going to love the step-up to the big block and all of the customising she might do to make Cherry her own! Looking forward to seeing all this pan out Cheers 😎
Thanks brother. I'm very happy to see Relle take ownership of the Street Bob, particularly now that is has the stage-2 cam in it. It'll probably outclass the ST ;D
Very happy for you both! Awesome bike brother. Now get that Memphis Shades Road Warrior fairing for the Bob and you’ll both be super comfortable from the wind. Be safe and Roll Tide!
Roll tide brother! Thanks for your support. Relle's going to ride the Bob for a bit and get a sense of what mods she might like. Maybe a fairing could be in her near future :D
I was nervous for a minute there too! At least I know now that it is definitely what I wanted :D As far as the Roar goes, I just realised we haven't even looked into it! We might have missed our opportunity for tickets I suspect
Contrats! Pleased for you that in the end it worked out! I think the regret of not purchasing would in the end have been worse than the small amount of monthly financial wallet pain of ownership. Pleased also that the dealership treated you both so well, and yes the Sport Glide seat actually looks better on the bike than the stock ST seat. Enjoy the new "big boy" toy. My son was interested in an ST until we found out that there is not one to be had in Western Canada. Every unit coming into dealerships is spoken for with deposits on them. For now I continue to be content with my Sport Glide! ;o)
Cheers dude. Yes, that seat is beautifully proportioned for the ST. I know you have an aftermarket seat now but how did you find the stock Sport Glide seat on longer journeys?
@@MisterKiwiRider Lots of people "complain" about the stock seat, but I found it quite comfortable overall and never had a sore butt after a long ride. I am still breaking in the Saddlemen SDC seat; so it present I miss the plusher comfort of the stock Sport Glide seat, but do enjoy the locked in feeling of the Saddlemen seat and the slightly narrower profile as it tapers to the gas tank as I have short legs. Both seats have some +/- But I think you will be very happy with the Sport Glide stock seat over all! Look forward to watching some future reviews and ride uploads from you on ST. TBH, when it first was released, I hated the look of the front faring; BUT it is fast growing on me and like you, with forward pegs, different seat from the stock single seat I can picture it replacing the Sport Glide down the road possibly; if supply catches up to demand that is. Son #2 just purchased his first bike 3 weeks ago - 2019 Iron 883 in all black and the bike came with a front faring and tall sissy bike plus only had 1063KM's on it (yup not even broken in...) So maybe when he is ready to move up to a bigger bike, he can take over the Sport Glide and I will go for an ST ;o)
Yes, a sublime build. If I'd seen those pipes on their own in a catologue I would have been a bit dubious about them but seeing them on that bike, they were a perfect fit I reckon.
Thanks brother, I got pretty dark there for a while but as soon I got on the Sportster on Saturday, I knew I'd be right. Then riding that behemoth of a Low Rider S and finally the Low Rider ST, I felt back to my old self. I hope you are good my friend :D
@@MisterKiwiRider i am still a bit apprehensive in the rain ,got caught in heavy rain going to Belfast Harley open day as it was similar weather when i ended in the hedge , weather been rubbish this summer in N.Ireland ,rain and more rain ,tip from my father who was a car / motorbike instructor ,if something is lying on the road always look to the left or right of it cause if you look at it you will hit it , enjoy many miles on the new bike and Relle must looking forward to taking over Cherry ,repect👊 and best wishes Dave ,"Harleyman1340"
Yes! 💪🏼🤘🏻 you're gonna love this bike! Give the mids a chance. I had reservations when I first rode mine but after getting used to them I love it! You will lose some road clearance in the turns with forwards but not much. It'll be much like the street bob as far as when you will or won't scrape. Congrats to Relle as well for moving to the street bob although the black widow will be missed. She put a ton of love into that one so I know this was a tough set of decisions to make. But that's part of motorcycling life.. you love them, change them, and sometimes trade them. Now just be mindful of your feet as you get off and on the low rider as to not scuff the bags lol. I speak from experience 🙄😂
Cheers JT. In terms of the mids I just know that I won't get used to them. I'm old and not very flexible and lack the stretchy tendons to ride for a long period of time in the pretzel position ;D Haha, as for the whole feet thing, I already learned that the hard way on Saturday sadly. It's a good thing it's mine now!
Awesome to see its all happening, ive got my bike listed for sale and a new job to start in a few weeks so i'm hoping to get into a late model fat bob or low rider in the near future myself.
@@MisterKiwiRider I don't expect it to sell before the summer months but that would be awesome, definitely leaning toward a fat bob but i'm open to a lowrider if the right option comes up, think the ST is a bit out of my reach still though.
@@MisterKiwiRider so what you are saying is that there’s no duty on that particular import. That’s good. My dealer Quoted me out the door $ 25,000 no if’s and’s or buts.
Congrat's, Bruce. Great to see you both supported each other in this venture. That bike is sweet, mate. Ride well, both of you. Cheers
Cheers brother Moz!
What a day! So glad you could all make it work. Everyone’s a winner! Look forward to seeing more. Congrats!
Cheers Cuz!
What a great video, honest and raw. I am glad you got the LRST.
Enjoy riding it!
Thanks, I will do!
Looking forward to the new adventures of Mr and Mrs Kiwi Rider. Both setting up new bikes for the coming summer. Niiiiice!
Definitely looking forwards to that summer riding!
Welcome to the ST Nation. Wait until you put a Bassani 2-1 Road Rage on it.
Gidday Bruce and Relle, Well done on the New Bike. It looks amazing. Yes its a big commitment, but Hey, You only Live once and you deserve it. Ride Safe and look forward to seeing it in person one Day. Cheers paul

Well done mate glad to see you back on 2 wheels and enjoying it :)
Thanks brother, yes, loving it!
Congrats on the new bike. Looks amazing. Great to see ya back on two wheel.
Cheers, I'm happy to be back on two wheels :D
Congrats on the new ride man. You must be stoked. What a looker!
Cheers dude, it's a stunner alright
@@MisterKiwiRider sure is man.
Congratulations, what a rug pull! That bike does look ace 🤘🏼
Cheers Dazz. Yes, that rug pull was on me too. I really would have regretted it if I let it go so easy I reckon
That Cold air will give it some extra Get up and go ....
CONGRATS BROTHER
Haha, yes, it's because we need to ride like a bat out of hell to get back to the warmth 😄

@@MisterKiwiRider they are amazing!!! Wow I’d love to give that a go!!
So happy for you, my friend. Can’t wait to see the adventures you’ll have on that bad boy.
Thanks Percy, I have a renewed vigour and hitch in my giddy-up ;D
Damn that’s great bro God bless you man enjoy the bike can’t wait to get mine still saving and scrimping

@@MisterKiwiRider or not. You might find there are still a few tickets left as at this evening. Just saying.
@@HughBeRiding haha, I'll have a look 😁👌
Congrats on the purchase brother. Ride safe
Cheers brother, I appreciate it 🤟😎
Very interesting, mine is still on order
Congrats on the new bike
Thank you!
Congratulations. I ordered mine in January still waiting. Keep safe.
I just checked and mine was ordered in February. Hopefully yours isn't too far away now

Awesome to see its all happening, ive got my bike listed for sale and a new job to start in a few weeks so i'm hoping to get into a late model fat bob or low rider in the near future myself.

That Breakout was a literal monster! I twisted the throttle and you could hear it two towns over 😁
Congratulations, nice choice.
Wow that’s got to be fun. My 04 electra had 100 ft lbs to the ground so I’m sure those were fun!
Super fun!
Good shit m8. hit me up if ya ever need a fairing for the street bob
Cheers bro, I'll keep that in mind. Might need to sell a kidney at this rate though to afford anything else 🙃
Congrats!! How tall are you? I'm 5ft 10 even.. Jk on the wind blocking.. Enjoy sir
I'm 5'11" and the fairing is perfect for me. You should be fine

Health to enjoy your new bike
Appreciate that, thank you :D

I was about right on the ETA for it.
Haha, yes. It was clearly by witchcraft or some kind of crystal ball ;D
The exhaust on the breakout was that a jerker bootlegger. Thanks.
It was a 'Freedom' brand 'Side-dump', I think it is called
Nice bike 🚲 🏍
Yep click bait but very cool . It looks better in person . I really can't tell the off set of saddlebags.
Yes, when you see it in the real world the different sizes bags just aren't that big of a a deal.
@@MisterKiwiRider tell the truth you was playing AC/DC Back in Black in you head when riding home .
@@TheBlueBikeDoyle when you're married to Relle AC/DC is always playing 😁👍

Yes, a very nice bike
Can you let us know if Relle takes the new bike for a ride… let the gals know her thoughts…
Haha, I will do 😎👍
