Default New Heritage Classic


It's not new but new to me ! Just picked up this 2022 Heritage Classic. I'm a long time Dyna rider and an FXR before that . Didn't care for the old style Heritage and didn't expect to like this one until I rode it . Very comfortable bike and fits my 6'2 frame perfect . It was delivered today and of course it's storming. Had some rough weather in Arkansas this year .

Welcome to the club! Yeah, it is difficult not to like the ride. If you do not want or need all those bells and whistles of the "Glides" this is the bike for you. I suppose some could argue the bigger bikes are better if you take passengers. I have no worries with that since my wife rides her own. Also a Heritage by the way. She chose hers first. Long story.

I came from a Dyna also an 02 Wide Glide. However, I couldn't part with it and was going to be worth nothing on a trade. That is my day-tripper/make-some-noise bike.

Enjoy!!!!!

A few years ago. Hers and mine. Day trip, coal-region, PA

A few years ago also. 19 Heritage and 02 Wide Glide

Just had the seats re-done with Mean City

Loving my 2024, with a whopping 1300 miles on it. Bonus is no oil consumption like my 17 RG did.
Enjoy that new bike the white really looks good with those black mags..

Welcome to the Heritage Club!

You're gonna love the ride, yeah weather fronts suck, but hang in there.

Interesting look blacked out and cast wheels - looks like an FLX blend?

I loved the bike but the mags was what won me over . I love the way spoke wheels look but mags are the way to go .Still haven't got to ride it and were supposed to have more bad storms tonight. The dealership Pig Trail Harley were I bought it was actually damaged in the bad Tornados that hit Arkansas last week .

Finally got a chance to ride it very nice alot of power not used to the high frequency vibration of the Softail platform. My Dyna felt smoother at 80 mph with the rubber mount motor . I'll just have to get used to it .
