Wrecked my Interstate...what did I pick for my New bike ?
All these foreign made off shore parts bike are everywhere kinda like lil willie g. Products.
That blue color is gorgeous.
Just the video I'm looking for coz am currently considering risers and bar change.
Hope it helps you out. 🤙
Ive been thinking on pulling the trigger on an interstate or stateline , im 255 lbs and my wife is 150 ish, your appinion will the bike handle both us without anything bottoming out, I have a vic kingpin and vtx 1800 and we good on both, but reilly want the inter or state, thank you
With a Kingpin and a VTX...me, I'd probably go for more of a touring bike...cruise control, luggage, stereo...the Interstate is an awesome bike, But, I knew at a certain point in life I was Gonna need something for longer rides, comfort and power are an amazing combination. Thanx for the like and the comment 🤙
Wow. I remember you. I had a Honda interstate as well. On an ultra limited now
What passenger floor boards are you using?
They were just an Amazon find
@@edmonddantes3499 no link?
Actually if I remember correctly, a friend gave me those off of his VTX 1300. U got me thinking for a minute,. The Hondas are damn near interchangeable for those. Try looking up a 2013 VTX, That's wat his bike was.
You can't go wrong buying a Honda. I have a 2013 Fury and love it.
Reliable as hell !!!
Beautiful bike enjoy your content What size riser bolts did you use i have 2010 interstate
Thanx. I seriously have no idea what bolts were used, the shop did it for me. Wish I could help more. I'd say go for whatever treads match the bars(or thread into the risers), I bet they used harley bolts, thats all they do at that shop is harley and they had em in stock, so...
What are the differences between the Fury, Interstate, and Sabre? Except for handle bars and fenders they seem to be almost the same. And you're absolutely right, a six speed would make a world of difference. That would give you a lower first gear, and a taller top gear for cruising.
@@edmonddantes3499 Later. Well, I went out a bought a Sabre 1300. I like it a lot, but you're right. It really needs a tach! I've never driven a bike without one, and I'd like to know what RPM I'm running at. Also the lack of a 6th gear really sucks. I'm always trying to shift into 6th gear, and there ain't none on this bike. On the highway, it is running at pretty high RPM, and a six speed would solve that, as well as maybe give you a bit lower 1st gear. I find first gear away too high. You need to feather the clutch a lot at low speeds. I've got the Cobra exhaust that I like, and I took off the full windscreen. I don't like looking through smashed bugs or a smudged plastic windscreen. The little mini screen is just perfect to deflect a bit of wind, and I can see over it. One other thing I switched is the little stubby stock mirrors. I couldn't see people following me. Now with my extended Ape Mirrors I can see everything. Oh, and I installed floor boards, and now I don't have to stretch to reach the pegs anymore. And my wife likes it. She even asked for a ride the other day.
Because of this video I just bought a 2005 vTX 1800R.
You've rambled for 4 and a half minutes a d. Said nothing about the bike
In regards to your complaint about the tender port on the brake side as oppose to the standard cluth side, i wonder if you can add a 2nd port in the blank spot and that way you have dual ports which would be killer in my opinon
Would really appreciate your help on the ape hanger set up information. I can send you my email if needed. Riding long distance with stock bar at 6'0 tall. Lower back issues. Thanks in advance.
It's empty so there is no tension on the strap.... my element works fine with about 10 cards & 6 bills in it.
Mine has been working great ! Guess I was just used to a snap that went "snap". Still using it, so 🤙
I test rode one last weekend and really enjoyed but decided to stay with my 22 Road Glide ST. Indian is making moves and the price is right! It’s definitely a bike to consider and I would definitely get one!
What did I just waste my time on? Looking for the sissy bar install and you get more info on mounting a flag with a twist tie. BACA is a great outfit but..........😂
Lol. My bad. I had Honda do it, so...I believe they drop the bags and install the mounts, put the bags back and screw in the rest. I really wouldn't recommend it though, damages the bag lids. Atleast u didn't spend two hours on labor costs, lol. 🤙
One of the best reviews many thanks a great looking bike.
Thanx. They are a solid bike.
I would take an Indian over HD, these day, 10 folds. I am not even browsing on HD site anymore. Incredible design and quality of work. They just need to bring center stand and reverse YESTERDAY. My co-worker owns one and he loves it. They made them super looking. I just can't justify selling my 2020 Goldwing DCT Tour. The best machine I have ever had in 32 years of riding.
I agree. I have an old Harley fatboy that I'll never get rid of because I love it, but if I got another bike I'd get an Indian.
It looks to me like the seat its self gives you enough lumbar support. Do you think so? And if you put a backrest on for the front seat, how could you mount the motorcycle? I tried one on someone's big Honda once and getting on the bike was the the most awkward thing I remember about it.
Very comfortable seat. Most front seat backrests fold forward so u can swing ur leg over it and mount the bike...u can always use the floorboards to give extra height to clear the seat.
Its a small world! Somehow your interstate made it all the way to Colorado Springs and into my driveway! Love the bars and it still rides smooth as butter. Thanks for sharing your videos as it has givin me a better understanding of the bike. Just out of curiosity do you still have the key for the fork lock?
That's awesome !! I do have a spare key. Wen I sold it I couldn't find it but...ull have to send a lil video or some pics. Hopefully she is as great to you as she was for me. I named her Sade ( the female jazz singer) cause shes a "Smooth Operator " and shes one sexy lady 🤙
I also have info on the TPMS system, the LED underglow, the battery tender / heated gear plugs and service records. I do have an awesome 2 up seat for it as well, so...
I got to say she rides like a dream! I upgraded from a shadow 750 bobber so.. Love the handlebar postion. I can see why you spoke so highly of this bike. I'de love any info you can give on this bike. Is there a switch to turn the fog lights off or are they permanently on? Let me know. I just finished moving so what can I do to aquire the spare key from you. Thanks again.
That's awesome to hear. The foglights stay on all the time. Get settled, hit me up. I have the key, a NICE seat and the windshield, a certified maintenance record from Honda. Keep in touch, we'll figure this out 🤙
I got the same ones- despite the comments below - they’re NOT supposed to go past the window on to the next - period!!!!
Can you send info on where you got parts for you bike?
Check my videos for one entitled "Honda Interstate bars and risers info ".
Those are the correct ones. We have already installed them on our 2020 Camaro and I just got another set for my 2015. They are also AVS. They go on the flat part and they go past the door but it does not effect opening and closing the door.
I would think their would be a lot of instability with a batwing fairing. With that much rake, you would think there would be too much wind under the fairing.
Nice review keep up the good work
Thanx. The bike made it easy, lol.
True. They did away with the 1800 for the reason of the appearance and from what I have been told the sound as well. Said it sounded too much like their bike. Love the bikes and im in the process of getting a twin to your bike this Wednesday. Going to pick it up . 2012 with 2800 miles for 5k. Only thing I'd love to have is as you said a tach and also I'd love to have a fuel gage. But other then that I love the bike. Let you know my thoughts more after I get more time and miles on it.
Exhaust is the first thing I'd change, terrible ugly factory Exhaust
Love the Pabst!
Love that blue, all around a really nice looking bike. Hoping to get or at least test ride one once I'm ready for a new bike.
Thanx. The bike was amazing !!! One day I'll get it.
nice color
Cigarette always in hand🙈👎.
As the owner of an interstate I agree with most of what you say.
Whaaaat? Don't know if you bought it but that Indian is SICK. I bet it feels way different than the Interstate also especially on the highway. You look good on it. How was Zion?
The plug that you mentioned for "heat".. is actually a battery tender. It can also work with heated gear with an adapter, but its intended purpose is a battery tender. Also, on the bag lids.. when you mentioned they "jiggle".. if you press them down firmly, you'll feel a second "click" and it shuts the bag lids tightly. As for the Chieftain vs. Challenger, I recently purchased a Chieftain Dark Horse after months of trying to decide between the two. I did several demo days. It was a tough choice, but I decided I liked the Chieftain better.
...still bad placement, in my opinion
@@edmonddantes3499 I have the same battery tender on my chieftain and I think its brilliant. So to each their own I guess...
nice video. we sure love our indian roadmaster. We have just over 13,000 miles this year so far and couldn't imagine riding anything other than indian
Either way you look at it- it's 2 wheels and a motor. All the info and tech to worry about is just more confusion. Nice bike, but too congested for me. Thanks for info again,, reminds me not to get one !
Appreciate you sharing. Got a feeling you got the Indian.
Thanx. Gonna take the Chieftain out for a few days next...see which one I like best
So, I own a 2021 Challenger, the heat is actually the battery tender, the blank on on the otherside is for an accessories for me its my lower fairing lights, the dash that is loose has 2 very strong velcro that holds it down. everything you picked on was from lack of research. Otherwise good job on the review
all your complaints are valid. That gage bezel rattle would have to be fixed, 1 way or another if I owned it. Wonder if some sort of weatherstrip would help with the side bags. Or a lock adjustment.
Just PUSH down on the lid! After you hear the 2nd click it won't rattle anymore. You have to compress the weatherstripping to make it watertight.
@@gregabell4799 why is it a 2 click lock? most would think once the first click is heard, that is all she wrote. Who would ever want to close it and not compress the weatherstripping? Seems like not so good of an engineering setup.
It's nearly
How does it track and handle at 75 . Mine gets a wobble any lil bump?
I love my 19 road master I also had a 15 road master, Indian stepped it up big time on the 19, I also looked a t chieftain and challenger but road master is in my opinion the best one.Oh yeah great review I would say your right on the money.
I had 3 different Indian Challengers and now I’m on a roadmaster. I’ll keep the roadmaster.
@@edmonddantes3499 well my first one was victim to arson. The insurance company replaced it and I had nothing but troubles out of it so I traded it for a 2021 and it was basically the same shit. I absolutely love the roadmaster
Traded my Victory Cross Country in aug 2021 for a Chieftain road new bike from northen Michigan back to lower Oklahoma around 1000 miles. Good bike but wanted a little more leg room for me. 7 months later traded it for a 2022 Challenger Limited love the bike more power than i need. good review
Thanx
You mention the lack of the 6th gear… what are the RPM at 70 mph in 5th?
No tachometer on these bikes ...I have no idea.
@@edmonddantes3499 I will be picking mine up after my house renovation is done. I’ve ridden cruisers that are a 5600 at 70 mph and that is super annoying. Was hoping for MUCH lower hwy rpm’s
But will it fit through the hotel room door?!
His wife/girlfriend?
Nice costume. Dew rag and wife beater ,how original
Awesome video bro for sure I subscribed to your channel as well. I have a channel also hope u check it out also ride safe brother
Thanks. I haven't really figured out how to edit or make an intro but...had to review that bike. Turned out to be a 4 day rental, 962 miles, zero pain or fatigue at all. Absolutely love that bike.
Cheap imitation
