My Harley Heritage has 122000 and still rides lovely.
Man..you've boosted my adrenaline to trade my sportster in for this beauty hehe
my dad left me his 01 heritage so ive been watching all your videos about this bike and i didnt even realise this bike was so sought after, especially mine bc it has the screaming eagle kit and a hypercharger w all chrome dual exhaust
Been following this channel for years and learned a lot from your videos. Just bought a beautiful 1997 FLST SPECIAL (Heritage Softail) with 16k original miles and already love it. Put 100 miles on it the first day I owned it. Thanks for all the bike reviews...
Have a 2006 Heritage Classic FI and absolutely love it. One of my favorite bikes I have ever ridden. The best way to describe it is that it feels like an extension of yourself while riding. So comfortable, the only two complaints I can even think of is; 1) I wish it had a 6 gear transmission/gearbox....always want to shift to 6th gear when on the open highway (but not a huge deal) and 2) if you ride aggressively in a turn or curve, you can easily drag your floorboards. I’ve ridden sport bikes for years (my last bike was a 2010 Honda CBR 1000rr) before test riding this beauty and I never turned back. I plan on keeping mine forever, classic style and sounds absolutely amazing!
No doubt have an 06 love it always getting complement’s I really believe because they look old school 🇺🇸🤙
Thanks bro, after watching this you convinced me to buy my 2010 Heritage, absolutely love it, so easy to put windscreen and bags on for those long rides
The Heritage Softail Classic is the best looking Softail Harley Davidson ever made!
Untill you see a heritage springer..
I don't know if it's the "BEST" mostly cause I haven't seen them ALL, but it's definitely pretty damn sweet. Mine is anyway. I have a 2001 Heritage Softail Classic. Black and lots and lots of Chrome.
I agree but there is no way in hell i want one of these new ones with black this and black that on them 🙄
I own a '99 Heritage Springer, second owner, last year Evolution. It's totally stock, color is Diamond Ice Pearl. Low miles, great motorcycle.
I have 2013 , love it fun to ride and fix up with add ons good hobby have met a few women because they liked my bike go figure
Just bought a 2018 Heritage with the M8 114. Love how it handles and looks and sounds awesome.
I got my dads 1998 Harley Davidson FLHSTC in Red/Black & Chrome with the Black Leather Bags. I am Sooooooo blessed!!! When I got my savings together for a Kindasucki Vulcan, we found a 1998 95th Anniversary Electraglide that dad wanted, so I got his old HD Heritage Softail Classic for the same price I was going to pay for my Vulcan😮😮😮!!!!
I have a 1999 Heritage - last of the 1340 Evo's. Absolutely love it, it's smooth and easy to ride, looks cool as hell, turns heads and sounds incredible. Old school style at it's best and I'll never sell it.
I’ve loved your channel since finding it a couple years ago. My wife and I are gonna learn/start riding. Just stopped at a local dealership (Vehicle City - Flint, MI). Great salesman, great place… the 100th Anniversary (2003) is my wife’s choice! Now I gotta shop a Softail for myself!
Saw this after I bought my 2007 Heritage Softail, couldn’t be happier! Great bike
I have a 2005 heritage...👍 you guys are the best even though I didn't buy my bike from you I tell everybody I know if they want a good deal go to srkcycles
I like softail deluxe too . These are nice bikes.
The Heritage Softail is the classic Harley! Awesome body style.
Shawn. Absolutely love watching your videos. Thank you for what you are doin. Hopefully soon I will be doin some business with you.
Hey now Sportster owner here and I enjoy taking care of it no leaks
Lol
I got 58k on my way 2000 Heritage. Just did the cam chain tensioner work. I sold off my 2016 limited I bought new...no soul compared to my twin cam, carbed, twin cam 88.
just picked up an 06 deluxe and love this bike almost better than my street glide
I have a 2020 Heritage Classic V107 in vivid black. I totally love the bike & I was gonna get the 114 but I wanted chrome.
Those are great bikes, I love how it sounds.
Heritage is the best handling bike HD ever made. One problem, it sucks in tight curves in the mountains. Too low and it will drag bad in tight turns. I had a 1994 Heritage and now I ride a 2010 Heritage. As far as the windshield, you will want one when you get caught in a good rain storm.
I own a 2000 FLSTC bought it new and it has been a great ride. I will be going through it this winter doing overdo maintenance and cosmetic work on it. It is the 'Old School' type of Harley IMHO. Dude nothing wrong with a windscreen, but then I'm a 70 year old biker and got tired of picking the bugs out of my teeth.
I have an '01 as well. Love it.
YES it does have cruise control. If you will look under the throttle by the cable lines, you will see a thumb wheel. I can barely see the edge of it in the video. At least, t hat's what I think I see. Anyway, if you turn that thumb wheel towards you with your Index finger, it will lock the throttle in it's current position, allowing you to take your hand away with out losing speed. When you want to release the throttle, just turn the thumb wheel with your thumb, and "Bob's your Uncle"
I’m sure Sean is referring to electronic cruise control, not the screws control you’re referencing. Cruise was not offered on the Heritage till 2016.
NO Shit Sherlock....
@@RockpileRanter Sherlock was a fictional character. However, if her were real, he most certainly shit. Think before you speak.
I love the heritage softy! One of the best harleys ever made.
I own a 2005 heritage 107,000 miles. Has the 88 twin cam. The heritage is highly customisable.
Jamie York. whats the widest tire u can fit one a classic 2006 can fit a 180 65 16 on it
I would think so but your question would be better answered on SDHCOA group on Facebook it’s for softail owners 20,000 plus members strong, I’m running a 18” mammoth spoke rear wheel in the back so my dimensions are gonna be a little different than yours.
fabian saldana 140 but 150 is pushing it
Jamie how many times have you replaced your cam chain adjusters, or what ever there called?
Old guy like me who had drum brakes front and rear didn't get in the habit of using the front brake since it's only good to hold you on hill specially in the rain.
Just found one in the U.K. 4,500 miles great motors
Just got mine; currently blending with it.
My 16' heritage softail has 1,100 miles. I really need to ride more...
Awesome video and ride....
I have the 01 Heritage Softail Springer with the vintage dual color stripes over black and ??cherry?? And she is sweet...
Basket weave leather bags
With 21 thousand on the odometer..
I 💘 srk and their videos
I ride a 16’ Classic Heritage Softtail. Twin cam w/103 High Output. My windshield pops on or off. I sure enjoy the cool summer breeze blowing through my hair!! Lol
I have a '09 Night Train FXSTB. I love the 96 CI engine. I can't stay off her.
Top pick is a Deluxe, the Heritage is a close second looking at an ‘09 with 20k.
Thanks! 🙂
nobody on the roads but you i see. Sweet.
What equipments do you use when take these videos the camera and the sound system?!
Ok I took your thoughts in this video and went and purchased one just like this one but only a few years old and low mileage. I am so happy with it because unlike you I prefer a windshield In January in Pennsylvania and I can remove it in March in literally 5 seconds! Wonderful bike to have a relaxing ride on.
I just bought my first sportster off my BFF and love it. Why insult sportsters, it is just ny size. Still have my honda VTX, been riding a honda for a very long time. But this sportster I love it great bike.
Sporties got a bad rep, but they're Harley's longest production bikes to be fair. I rode my buddy's 883, after coming off a vt1100, and I was still shaking after 10 mins. Still got my Shadow, and a Softail Night Train. No vibes on either 😁.
Can you ship to Australia?
I have an 03 Heritage Softail Classic and just did a 1400 mile trip with no hiccups whatsoever,she has the 88B engine in her and she screams when u want her to but she’s a cruiser and that’s what I use her for,I highly recommend a Softail to anyone looking for an amazing bike,Ride Safe my Brothers and Sisters 🏍🏍
Do you EVER stop at a stop sign?
How is the cost of maintenance for a 2012 heritage classic?
Have a 22 heritage just made a year old, 10,000 miles so far , would have had plenty more but I share it with my 17 deluxe that just broke 60,000 miles and no problems, treat them right and they'll treat you right.
I love to see the Heritage gettin some love!! I can't fault my 2017 Heritage for anything. They are so enjoyable to do the maintenance, they're comfortable enough to ride alllllll day long on.
I just got a 2017 Heritage two weeks ago, I'm loving it too. Nice lookin' machine.
the heritage is the best harley that they have ever made period! nuff said
Hi ! Do you guys shipp international? Thanks
I’m a Sporty owner and i care!! Nice soft tail. Good price too.
How much was he selling it for?
I’m looking to get a softail is a 1995 heritage with 35k miles worth 4500? Is there a difference from the 1995 up to 2005’s? Thanks
Sean: Great review -- as usual! I've never owned a Harley but that could change based on your review.
You should be using the rear brake more than the front brake. The rear brake is what allows you to slow maneuver and in a bad situation the rear brake and downshifting will allow you to slow faster and more controlled in many situations.
*brake
I disagree. All of you stopping power comes from the front brakes. In my experience the rear brakes on any bike I've ever rode wasn't very impressive. Maybe you riding a scooter
I like the looks of Heratige. Havnt rode one yet. But been doing a lot of browsing .
Awesome video Sean. I missed the words of wisdom
So what really is the difference between a Heritage Classic and a Softail Standard besides the obvious? Are the rides comparable? You should do a side by side comparison?
So I’m looking at a 2014 HD Heritage Softail. It only has 23k miles and the asking price is $14,450. Is that bad or good?
like first time when i see deluxe
feel like in love teen
Those are the best riding hd
What kind of bars is on that? I might switch it with mine.
Nice sound
I love mine mine is a 2012
hahaha Sean HATES windshields, always cracks me up
Love my ‘04 Softail just wish it had a lil more kick but I wouldn’t trade it for any other ride. Picked her up in ‘19 with only 9k miles can you believe that??? Unheard of
I am sorry to say I own a 2018 soft tail with the 107 engine. Been nothing but headaches since I got it. 400 miles and the rear brakes blew out. 2700 miles the oil light came on for a possible glitch in the sensors. 2800 miles and back in the shop for brake issues again. I get a round around from the dealership and a headache from the factory. Does the word “lemon” come to mine!
I AGREE "LEMON" !! Same thing I'm dealing with!! Bought 2018 Heritage 107 new off showroom floor to avoid potential costly repairs from a used bike- I've had mine in 4 times for same issue - oil from breather all over side of bike and saddlebag. Dealer tells me it's this, it's that, puts bandaids on and sends me on my way- now 2yr warranty is up- It's at 12,000 miles- I still owe $17,000 -bike vibrates, oil blows all over my bike, it never wants to go into neutral amongst other clutch issues, and I can't get an honest answer as to why this is happening to a BRAND NEW HD!!!
Sept 2020: So my bike wouldn’t start and I’m a 1000 miles from my dealer- had it picked up and transported to H-D dealer in OH- they diagnose bike; needed new battery and continued to check noise/vibration issue I was having- Come to find out belt tension was too tight which created premature bearing failure therefore my rear wheel had an inch of play- My H-D dealer back home in FL apparently should’ve checked this during any one of my service checks (1000mi) (5000mi) etc - Never were remarks recorded that a belt adjustment was made - So how did the belt tighten itself??? $1300 out of “my” pocket for their negligence but at least I didn’t eat pavement!! 🙏
Nice bike 😊
Would a big guy 260+lb look okay on this bike or would it look small?
Why do we never see your personal road king?
Heritage is an awesome bike
Do you know why my security light stays on goin down the road
Love my 99 Evo FLSTC ! No Twinkies for me!
Just bought a 2011 Heritage about 2 months ago. Sold my 2002 Ultra. Ya or nay??? Needed a lower lighter bike, due to medical reasons. I've put about 50 miles on it, and stripped it down for solo riding, my wife rides a soloed 06 Deluxe so no need for a passenger seat. Getting ready for riding season then I blew out my Knee , not from the bike. Sucks cause the weather is finally warming up and can't ride now. Hopefully I will be riding within a month after surgery. Riding season isn't very long here in North Dakota.. Keep your knees in the breeze and be safe. God bless ya
If you can , went you test ride , mention the price,that helps, and , even though, we check your website,I don’t see the bike you test drive,
Great videos, God bless
Mathew 5:3:), from Milwaukee Wi
Awesome
if i can buy a 1995 Harley-Davidson custom heritage nostalgia with 13,000 miles for $8,000 should I do it?
What’s the top speed ?
What’s the gas tank size?
Is it comfortable for long trips?
Top speed: 110MPH+
5 Gallon or so gas tank
Perfect for long trips.
How does the weight of the bike - 700+ lbs - affect the handling?
Using four fingers breaking can cause an accident if you panic instead I always use just two so I don’t have the option of locking them up as fast
2 on a Harley?
Yeah,if I need to stop faster I’ll use my rear break just to prevent locking up the front.I have an older 96 so it doesn’t have abs so I’m pretty cautious of this
Whats a fair price on a heritage?
1994 FLSTN....the most BEAUTIFUL motorcycle ever....I have 2....Natalie, Marilyn...
Gloves ???
what's up with you and the Sportsters' guys
Love mine 🙏👏
My 88 flstc w 118,000 mi is a 2 finger braker, also ,DYK you can put up to a 2003 motor and a 6 speed tranny in an 86 To 2003 heritage although the blockhead is a more reliable motor , after 99 they started having to use Chinese parts.(wich I refuse to abide)
I'm looking at this for my very first bike. I'm hoping for a used version somewhere between the ranges of 4,000 to $8,000. Hoping to get one next spring
I might add that I'm willing to make improvements where needed at that price
@@honestlynate7922 you probably should start off with a used sportster it is in your range, but i doubt you will find a Heritage softtail for that, and a softtail is not a beginner bike.
Hey dude, I have a 95 1200, doesnt leak a single drop of oil, and I do care. I am eyeballing a 93 heritage as a highway bike. 55,000 miles. The miles don't scare me.
I can't seem to find this answer anywhere, but are softails good for traffic commutes? I want to be able to weave in and out of traffic, but I want a cruiser or touring. I love the road king, but I'm wondering if it's too big for big-city travel where there's a lot of traffic.
My dad drove his from Miami to Georgia and loved it even as a 60 year old man he found comfort in the bike.
@@lifeistoshortgottobeoptimi8707 traffic commutes= sportsters. trust ....
Is it a big deal that there's no ABS on it ??
It’s not bleeding the brake fluid, the problem is the front pistons get gunned up. They need to be cleaned and get all that crap out of there.
Are they belt driven or chain?
Belt.
👍
from Japan
I own a sportster and I do care …. Dang and I was going to subscribe 😔
Awsome content..
The name and the look are literally the only thing this bike has in common with the current Heritage. I don’t think any parts are the same.....very few if any.
No, the new heritage has lost its soul. The modern headlights on the new ones look like if someone where to put LED projector headlights on a Chevelle. You just don't do that.
@@jeoff1954 The leds look odd to me also but that’s the way everything is going, and they are way better if you actually want to see at night. I think after awhile they will look normal to me. I think they look way better than the projector leds on the touring models
Where's the gloves dude?
Although Sean is great at these test rides it really irks me when I see him, or anyone get on a motorcycle wearing shorts etc. Dress for the slide AND the ride.
Why don't you ever tell what the price is.
So how many miles can you put on a motorcycle engine?
Or how many miles it's considered to many miles for a motorcycle?
Depends on brand. Harley engines are good for anywhere from 60,000-80,000 miles depending on what engine it is and how it's mantained and ridden. Japanese bike engines (Yamaha, Suzuki, etc) are rated for well over 100,000 miles. If you want reliability, go for a yamaha
@@bigchungus2493 that's not true. There are Harleys with over 100k mileage and still ride brand new. It's all on how you take care of it.
You want that windshield when you're on the highway going 70 miles an hrs for hrs and hrs...
Do you feel like the bike is really small looking when you're on it? You said you're 6'2 I'm 6'3 so I figured I'd ask...... As you probably know most bikes are too damn small for me and they look weird with me on them this one does look a little bigger.....
It's not exactly the same motor as on RK. Twin cam softail have a "B" engine, with a balancer shaft. That supposedly eats a couple of horses
Remember the day thier was no front brakes
I have a 2004 heritage Softail with 5000 miles on it and those are stock handle bars
