Brought mine home today! Hell yeah!! It's quick for sure, but handles so much better than my FXDB, which was really unexpected. Weight is about the same, but it just feels so much more nimble.

Looks great!
Is that dealer across the street from a Hooters and a Waffle House? I stopped there for a shirt once while driving from Savannah to Sea Island on a business trip... Seemed like a decent dealer.
Getting a little closer... Unfortunately black braided brake lines are on BO until 5/10. So I'll be Rollin with stainless for a month. Which is ok. Cause it's going straight to the shop for a motor build and dyno tune....
How's that measurement coming? Lol. Just a friendly reminder, I figured after what you drank last night you needed a reminder Hahahaha.
Wow, couldn't even give me 24 hours...?
12" forward and 10" up from pegs is the foot position on the Linbar. I rarely used it as a foot rest myself. But you can also use it as a location for other clamp on foot rests I imagine.

Yep, that's the one. Seems pretty good as dealers go and I've lived in a few different places. Really low pressure sale, but then with an S model they don't have to be too aggressive, lol.
Got mine a week ago, just drove it home, too cold to enjoy; rode it today, still cold but temptation was too high LOL
So far, the most fun bike I had and I had a few
Installed a luggage rack, passenger pegs and detachable pillion/back rest for the wife, Daymaker headlamp, flush mount black fuel gauge and gas cap; wind screen; will hit dealership tomorrow for heated grips....
Couldn`t care less about the cone air filter, I prefer the oval like I had on my Sportster, can someone confirm if the airflow would be similar compare to the original ?
Also which part # you guys suggest for the all black one I think there is 2 different part #... Dibdob69 and Mchad which one did you get ?
thanks

Tried reading this thread, got about ten pages in but then gave up and came to the end. I saw one at the dealer last week when I brought mine in for inspection (one year old). This new Low Rider S is a beautiful machine. I'm new to riding so my Sportster is plenty of bike for now as I increase my skills but if I were looking for something different, this bike just jumped to the top of my list.
Congratulations to all of you who recently purchased one. I'll be following this thread to hear how everyone is enjoying their rides.

The one I got is 29400218. The other you see is for the 58mm throttle body.
This is of course, if you mean the air cleaner...
And to add, I bought a gen-u-wine K&N filter for it, as it supposedly flows a bit better then the stock HD oil-free filter that comes with the ventilator kit. Either way, more flow then the motor can use.
Tlaw, Had a 2012 Sportster Custom blue like yours, liked it very much after replacing suspension, exhaust, a/c etc, hated it on Interstate at 60-70, can`t explain it but the noise and vibration were killing me.. anywhere between 45-55 mph cruise was a blast.
Bought a 2014 Ultra Limited to please the wife, except for the fact I was on a bike, no thrill at all...
In February I was looking at either a Wide Glide or a Breakout, was tempted for a CVO Pro Street but price was/is steep..then I noticed the Lowrider S on the Harley website, called my dealer, bought one of the 2 he had on order.
After about 150 miles, so far I think I found MY perfect bike, the suspension is very good, even with the Wife on, sounds good when accelerating from 2500 to 3500 ( have to brake it in ) brakes are better than the Sportster..
All this to say, if you cannot afford it, do not test drive it...if you do, the Sportster will be a distant memory

So the 29400230 is overkill ? what size is our throttle body ?
