Unsure if this has been posted, but Ultimate Motorcycling did a review of the '15 Low Rider, and they loved it. It reads like a review I would give on my '11 Dyna Custom, but with a lower seat. Enjoy the brief positive read, as it doesn't happen often. tomp dd50

Thanks for sharing that one.
I have a "feel" for the new Low Rider, test rode one briefly a couple of months back.

It's great to see an honest appraisal too. Suspension isn't great in standard form, rear shocks especially.

i think the low rider always gets good reviews. it is a nice bike, I just wish I"d fit on one better, not so great for larger riders, even with forwards I don't think i'd be all that comfortable on it. bars are too low, and seat is too far forward,,


but I believe it's the best value Harley there is.

For a smaller (leg and arm length) rider it's a beauty.
I liked the "Further Forward" mid controls so much I have a set fitted to my FXDX.

That orange/black colour too is stunning.

I used to own a '78 Low Rider some 20 odd years ago.

What a beautiful motorcycle. Hard to believe that forks were that small in diameter back then. Probably worked better than the 49mm ones we have today on the Dynas. tp

Thanks for posting that, I'm probably back in the market for a Harley in the next year. Just gotta decide if I'm going Dyna or Touring. I enjoyed the low rider I had but not sure it'll be enough to tour around with. At the same time I'm not sure I want the heft of a touring bike all the time.
