Hello,
Just wanted to drop in and say hello to all you Low Riders. It has been quite a while since I owned my Low Rider. But I'll never forget the ride and good times with the bike. I went to the 2015 Switchback after my Low Rider. Last month bought my first new Harley I ever owned. The 2018 Softail Heritage Classic 107ci. I loved all my Harley's but the new M8 Softail is really something special for me. Good power, smooth engine and excellent suspension. Ike, I do believe this Low Rider thread is the largest and most continuous on this Harley Davidson Forum. Take a bow my friend and everybody ride safe and watch your six.
Cheers

I have a 2015 Lowrider. Thinking about changing the original exhaust to a 2 in 1 megaphone type. They recommend a fuel pack programmer (Vance and Hines FP3) anyone have any advice on fuel pack programmer. Thanks Mondoman

I have a V&H FP3 and I have been happy with it. Used it to flash a map when I went to a K&N air filter along with a Screamin' Eagle Nightstick, and again to flash another map when I went to a full exhaust (Cobra Powrpro RPT 2 to 1) recently. Bike runs great, and the FP3 is super easy to use.

Not that specific device, but I love my PV2. Keep us posted on what you do.
I ordered a Power Commander 5 from FuelMoto, when you order it you tell them exactly what you have for mods and they send you a pretty decent base tune. That alone woke the bike up. Saving the money spent on a dyno tune for after I do headwork and cams once the warranty is up...

Dealer picked up my bike this morning to get the issue with the rocker cover gasket done. Figured might as well do it now while the weather is bad. Should have my LR back towards the end of next week.

Tempted for a 2014 or newer Dyna Low Rider or 2018 Softail Low Rider as a next bike after the Sportster Custom 1200. Still I think the Sportster is a perfect bike for me atm, but it really never stops does it.
The Dyna has all the bells and whistles. The new is cool and reviews all says its a better bike and also I think gives more homage to the legendary FXR lines.
The new one has two things I do not like in the looks department; wheels, handlebar, and will also need to move the foot controls a bit forward as I felt cramped when I sat on one at a dealer in Sicily. That means spending 500Ł after purchase if I had to move foot controls and change handlebar. Wheels will be much more expensive but that is something which can wait.
I like everything of the Dyna Low Rider it looked perfect IMO even stock. Somehow I prefer the Mags version (I am a spoke lover normally) and also the more recent 2 into 2 exhaust version. But anyways spoke version and two into one exhaust are still very cool.
Thank you for sharing the photos here!
