Default FXLR-ST El Diablo

I just heard about this new version of the Low Rider ST that it seems will be called "El Diablo" from this page in UK: https://www.bennetts.co.uk/bikesocia...ider-el-diablo

Do you have any news about it from your side of the ocean...?

I'm very glad I saw this. I have a deposit on an LRS ST. If there is a upgraded version to this bike, I'm holding off a purchase until at least seeing the newer setup.

Sounds like cosmetics and stereo.

Maybe lower the bags to a sensible height. Once loaded I imagine the back end will feel squirrely at low speeds like a large tour pack on baggers.

I'm sure it will come out the day after I pick mine up, and be better than the black one I ordered. I'm guessing the speakers weigh 8 lbs. That's probably what the difference is, aside from paint. Hopefully it will be some stupid looking flame paint and I won't be upset.

I’m guessing a special paint job, and the stereo set up. Maybe even the H-D 2:1 high Flow exhaust system.

That would be a beautiful bike…
