Default 2016 Low Rider

Picked up my 2016 Low Rider in Cosmic Blue this morning. After a 100 mile ride I want to post my thoughts. My last 3 bikes have been Soft tails so the Dyna frame is new to me, so right off I was pleasantly surprised with the ride, handling was awesome and seat was comfortable, bike has plenty of power and comes on immediately when you twist the throttle. Brakes are impressive and wasn't uncomfortable with rear pedal set up. Had to adjust handle bars, took about 10 minutes and that was it. Noticed the bike has no problem letting you know when you are lugging it and that it loves to rev !!! Over all feel like Harley hit a home run with this bike !

I'd like pics too! Just curious, what made you go from a softail to the lowrider? Most of my softail friends are pretty loyal to their softails.

Well traffic jam as much as I enjoyed the Heritage ride I have to admit I am not getting any younger, having turned 65 last month. That an the arthritis in my shoulders and knees has made the weight of the bike an issue, so I was looking for something lighter.

I totally understand! My friend who rides a 2001 Fatboy has some arthritis and hip problems and is also looking to go Dyna - he wants mine - LOL. I told him "No."
