You hit the nail on the head. Let's face it, a lot of current H-D owners are about to age out of riding. H-D needs to sell to a younger audience. I think the ST lineup was brought out for that exact reason. And you don't have to buy a RG CVO ST to have performance fun, you can get a Lowrider S or ST for half the price.

We got strict regulations, and we need to spend a lot for a legal exhaust and cams, Jekyll&Hyde, Penzl and so on, to get that Harley Sound out of a M8! It's way easier with the older Models, like Twin Cams and specially Evos! In the States, yeah, easy to make your M8 sound bad a**, but not in Europe, if you wanna stay on the legal side!

I remember looking around in 2011and there we were, Harleys, Indians, Yamahas & Suzukis all rolling down the road together, thinking: Times sure have changed. Maybe not so much or we turned on our own 🤷♀️

I ride a beautiful all original 1974 XLH ironhead and it has AMF Harley Davidron on the tank. Yes indeed it is a real Harley.

When you said real bikers don't obsess over what someone else is doing, I damn near fell out of my chair, seriously funny stuff right there.

No emissions tests in New York State. Yet. But if you have exhaust pipes that do not have baffles in them, you will not pass inspection. Why a lot of people are keeping their stock pipes throwing them on for inspection, and then switching back to aftermarket afterwards. Of course, it is up to the "officers discretion" if your pipes are "too loud" and can write you a ticket.

MD is kind of the same. Baffles for inspection, though inspection is only when you first register, then never again. So baffles in for the day, then gone. No emissions here either. BTW- Wife thought bike was too loud without the baffles...a few weeks later, she was complaining about her right foot getting too hot. Without telling her, baffles "fell out"...amazingly her complaints about her foot getting hot stopped...

The new "not a harley" look has not grown on me yet. Did the first tour glide get shit for looking like a goldwing? I did the google thing, says goldwing first came out in 1972, serious question there, not joking or being a smart bum today

But the factory fairing was much later, 1980. Fairings on goldwings prior to that were aftermarket windjammers.

I was on the fence when I first saw them…….and then I went for a test ride on my new 24 Road Glide and promptly traded my 23 Street Glide in on it. These are incredible motorcycles! Thanks Monk for all the great content!!

Would be nice to have a new bike to ride. My 17 ultra just had the engine take a shit. Waiting for an estimate. Hope my extended warranty works out.

I’m glad Harley finally started using inverted forks. Definitely not new tech I have them on my 99 Honda Valkyrie interstate

I own an Indian Challenger. I love my bike. But I'm willing to say that Harleys answer to it is really cool. Harley did a great job! That's why competition is good for everyone.
