Default All Low Rider S and ST models from 2025 and up

Since these models have undergone quite a few changes since the 2025 model year, I think it would be more practical to gather all the information about their modifications, updates, and photos here.
Here's my future 2025 Low Rider S, scheduled for delivery on March 13th.

You made a great choice.
Stock the S is a great bike. I added a Corbin Wall seat, Kraus pull back plate goes on Friday and this two items will make the bike for my long legs better.
Crash bar up front, and I am thinking of a slip-on pipe for better sound.

Check out this very interesting video of a dyno run on a stock 117 High Output Low Rider ST.
It shows that in Sport mode, power and torque drop at low revs, then the curve rises sharply towards the middle of the rev range, while in Road mode, the progression is much more gradual.

Default Low Rider into a Sport Tour

Made my own front fender, modified the extended saddlebags and made my Bassini exhaust exit through the bag with a trim piece on the bag. Live Wire fairing and had to make a windshield for it. Oh, and the knee dents in the fuel tank too.

Made the belly air dam by making a mold off of the fairing and flipping it upside down.

Default 2025 Low Rider S Mods

I love my 2025 S, especially after a few upgrades. Mandatory forward controls, due to long legs and aging knees. For comfort, heated grips (plug and play) and a switchback seat. For performance, and to get the stock intake out of my way, a wedge air cleaner and a Rinehart slip on. As a former road racer, I value good suspension and I added a steering damper and a SE Ohlins shock. I may do the Ohlins replacement fork cartridges down the road, but that can wait as the stock forks are pretty good. Finally, I didn't want much luggage on this bike, so a tank bag and swing arm bag. Finished it off with a few style items like mirrors and such. Ride on!

Nice ride,
Did you change the risers ?
Does this seat raise you and push you backwards vs the stock one ?
I don't want to put forwards, how tall are you ?
