Way better than the absurdly large tires on the Fat Boy and Breakout.
The bike just handles better with the narrower tire. My wife's bike has a 200 and is harder to steer.

Thought that I'd try the silver this time, never have seen it in person, Have in the past had almost every color in the rainbow on my various motorcycles, will be my first Silver.


Saw my first '18 Heritage, did not touch it as the guy was very standoffish. He parked next to my RK, told him that I was trading it for a new Heritage, he said loud and clear "Don't touch my bike"..........Didn't want to have any problems and as I was leaving any how, put on my helmet and road off.


I guess my first time to sit on a Heritage is when I get to ride mine away from the dealership.

Ha! Well Silver will look good. There's gotta be one at the dealer coming up you can demo...or maybe do a small road trip to dealer that has one to test...

I bought a bike in '93 that I hadn't test ridden. I'll never forget my disappointment when I fired it up for ye first time...spent a year trying to convince myself I liked it. I'll never buy an bike I haven't ridden again.

While i am not a big fan of those bags on the Heritage it does look damn nice without bags which is more than i can say for my Road King.

What is the weight limit on the Heritage bags?

That color is the nicest I’ve seen so far. One question, iw there any pinstriping on the tank or fenders? Some of the other colors options have pinstripes.

I'm waiting for a Twisted Cherry 114" to come in to the dealer. They called me yesterday to let me know a black one with the "small engine" was available. LOL! We've come a long way since a 74" was the "big twin."
