Guess I'm another me too regarding the low cost of the FE. I bought mine as it was deeply discounted. I was somewhat interested in trying something different than a Harley. But if the R18 was full price I would have passed on it. While I do like the TC version, I wouldn't pay that price. I...
Owned several Harleys over the years including Street Glide Special, a 2019 Fatboy, and my keeper, a 2017 FLSS. I bought the R18 FE as an opportunity to ride something different. I will say compared to what the R18 was targeted against, the newer Softails, it's good but not as good. The new...
I almost had a similar situation but we bought a house closer to where we already lived. But I planned to trailer out 2 of them and have a buddy and I ride the other two. I'd pay for his airfare back. That was the plan....
I think it depends on you and what your tolerances are. When I was young I rode an '89 ZX7R probably 500 miles round trip and it didn't phase me. Today I take my Aprilia RSV4 60 miles and I'm ready to park it!
I could probably do it on my FE, just depends on the number of breaks and sites to...
My FE didn't come with one. I looked into adding one and the price was more than I wanted to pay. I believe the Classic has it because the front tire is larger. I've never experienced any type of handling issues because of the lack of damper. If the engineers did their job right, your...
Why are you always such a douche in your post and responses? All your responses tell me you're a bitter piece of crap or Internet bully. Chill Francis...
No I'm right! My Brother in Law bought a Jeep two weeks ago. They wanted 10k over MSRP for the one on the lot, BUT he could get one that...
Yup. The mark up is crazy if you are buying off the lot. But if you order and can wait a little bit you'll get a better price. I will NEVER pay over MSRP. I'll wait and will negotiate a decent deal
800 bucks for the conversion!?!?!?! Geez and I thought Harley OEM parts were ridiculously expensive. It's not that I can't afford it, I just don't even feel thats a fair price for them. Maybe 500 bucks, but no more... I'll live with my pegs.
I've lived at the base of the Rockies for 25 years and have some motorcycle that only get ridden a few hundred miles a year. I don't move mine around to prevent a flat spot. Never had an issue with tires going out of round or anything like that....
I have to agree, the Touring bike's suspension is horrible. My 2018 Streetglide Special was horrible on medium to big bumps. The Softails were much better.
My concern with the horsepower or actually torque with the added weight to hear if it's adequate with the added weight and a...
