I bought my 22 model because it had mags . I wasn't looking for Heritage until I saw it didn't know they even put mags on one . I'm super happy with mine already put over 10,000 miles on it in the last 8 months .

I ordered the 2022/2025 mags in October......they sent wheels VERY scratched twice.....whole pallet was roached supposedly.....then the MOCO said nothing will be available until late june even though they are available because they're being used on the 2025s.....that date changed several times since October......I scored a set from market place for my 2021.

You don't need a new bike to get a bigger motor! Convert with a Stage III engine kit like I did. I went from 107 to 117, what a blast to ride it is now!

With credit to @$tonecold for leading me astray.

I traded my 2016 CVO Ultra in on a 2025 Whiskey Fire/Black Heritage. I am a short guy and while I loved my Ultra it was just too big for me. I love the Heritage, for me it's perfect. However, the bags are a tad small for longer trips with the Girl friend. I have a true dual Paughco exhaust, supposedly the first set they built for this model. I am thinking about getting the touring hard bags and mounting kit. I think they look good on the Heritages Classics I have seen in the past. I have ridden thru rainstorms and nothing in my bags has gotten wet. For me personally its easier to ride and I find myself tossing it around corners quicker and just having more fun than on my ultra.

Thought about that color but went with Iron Horse Metallic 👍

Can hard bags be fit to a new Heritage?

ETA- I’ll answer my own question. Not without modding the exhaust

Yeah I get what you mean it hasn’t had a full redesign in a while. But honestly, that’s also why a lot of people still go for it 👍🏽. The platform is proven, reliable, and all the bugs have been worked out over time. Plus you still get solid performance, comfort, and way better value compared to some newer models that cost more but don’t deliver much extra.



If you’re looking for something more updated I can show you a few newer options too just depends on what matters most to you 🔥

Sure, because they probably do motorcycle things things to draw people into the dealership, not just wait for them wander in on their own. About the only things my local does is have a Jeep Jam once a year (last one had 10 Jeeps and three motorcycles) and Corn Hole contests. The house is always packed for the corn hole. What either has to do with motorcycles I don't know. Well, the corn hole thing is somewhat fitting because one look at the prices and that's where you feel the pucker first!
