Default Am I Crazy?

I have two bikes...a 1999 FXST and a 2020 Heritage. I like them both, but only the evo has a personality. The M8 is kinda bland. I'm thinking of selling the Heritage and buying an evo Road King. Am I crazy?

Maybe a little, but Id do it!, but a 2020 so I'm assuming you bought it new? so your probably going to loose some money

It's all about what makes you happy. That's all that matters. I've always had Shovels and Evo's but recently purchased a twin cam Dyna and I like that one too but it's all about personal preference...

Ride what you like and makes you happy!

I love the Shovels….but as a daily rider, they have a hard time commitment of that task.

The EVO has some of the Shovel era combined with more modern world stuff….but still simple. These can still be ridden daily with little aggravation.

Newer Harleys are nice….but I’ve lost interest in them. Way too expensive and way too complicated….just not my style.

A carbed EVO Road King….will be a favorite for many years.

After picking up the FXST, I quickly realized that had I gotten it earlier, I would not have bought the Heritage. It makes me smile in a way that the Heritage never does. My wife asked me the other day "Which one are you going to sell? They look about the same to me." She is only seeing two black bikes of similar size, but it got me thinking.

A carb on an Evo even gives it more personality

Keep them both, all depends on what your riding entails, for long trips, Heritage is the way to go. For around town and just cruising around, the FXST is the best. My 2019 Trike is great for long trips and day long rides; however, the Sportster had personality and is great for putting around town.

Evo's rule, best engine HD made and still has the HD soul, unlike the Twinky.
