I love my new slim. For the uk the heritage is really comfortable with the weather conditions, but I just love the way the slim looks.
Great content man
Good looking bike for sure!
I own a Fat Bob 2019, now i have done 6000 km on it. Yesterday i try a little bit speeding on the Autobahn(High way).
easy 200 km/h. Sat & Sunday we was riding in czech republic (country roads) lots of curves, this Thing is fantastic and it is just fun to rid it.
Its everything what i want
I love Captain Ana, she gives such a great female perspective/opinion on those bikes!
mommafletch Thank you so much! 😁
captainana I saw on another channel before finding this one that the guy replaced the Slim seat with one from the Bob (a chair for your bootie) because of the backwards slide and support.
How did she not know if there's a heel shifter... Dude you're literally on the bike
I prefer the heritage. Good jack of all trades bike. As Aaron said, you can easily remove the bags and the windshield and have a comfortable and good looking boulevard cruiser.
Love these vlogs. Very informative. I have been saving for a new bike and these have been really helping me. Thank you. Blessings to your channel.
Being 45, and an "old man" I guess, lol, I'd like the:
1-Heritage
2-Fatbob
3-Slim
As for now, I'll stick with my 2007 Nightster. Love that ride. Thanks again for your video's. After 20 years of being off bikes, your "How to ride" Vids got my confidence back up and got me riding again. And with my low self esteem/confidence, that's saying something. Thanks from Northeast MS.
I really enjoy your content. Very entertaining! And love how educational you are as well.
Getting a 2020 iron 883 this year! Cant wait to start riding!
Yay back to Orlando HD hehe nice ride
Yo Block send some heat to Romania,it's getting chilly,still pretty hot in the afternoon but at night and in the morning uuh,autumn sure has arrived
I have the softail slim and I changed the handle bars and the seat but love the floor boards and even have the heel shifter … love it!
I was between the slim and the heritage, ended up with the heritage 114 solely for the price they offered, I practically had to buy it. But that slim is the sexiest bike out of the lot to me. Even at 6 ft 225lbs, it was still comfy. (Except the half skateboard of a stock seat)
The Heritage all day long. My first ride on a Harley Davidson was a kid and my mom’s boss Mr Phil took me for a ride around town on his Heritage. I always wanted to ride after that day so I definitely associate with that bike.
I would have the old man's bike first followed by the Slim and the Fat Bob. I have a Low Rider on order, should have it by Saturday so that would be my first choice. Fun test rides, thanks
Love John Maxwell!! I think John would be a great character on the walking dead!! Him and Daryl working and riding bikes slaying some zombies.
i was going to go to sleep but i saw this was about to be out and wanted to watch lol
The FXFBS is the best non-touring Harley ever built
B Rad agree
Nope.
Heritage all day! Very versatile, very customizable, tons of power, super comfortable. It is the ultimate Harley.
I just bought a new heritage from Orlando Harley north. Same color green as your test ride. I like mine very much.
The windshield and bags can come off if you like a Boulevard cruiser look
1 Fat Bob2. Slim3. HeritageI had the 2018 Slim and traded up to the Lowrider S. The slim is a good bike.
Heritage old man bike hahahahahahaha. CPT Ana had me ROFLMAO!!
I tried the Fat Bob a year ago and I really loved it! I did not try the other two though, but I really like how Slim looks like. I would put Heritage last but if I rode it I might change my opinion. It happened to me with Sport Glide, wasn't my kind of bike but when I tried it wooow was I surprised, I loved it.
I think ana does a nice job on these reviews. I also think she has a nice voice. If she had a channel taste testing coffee, I would still tune in! Nice job everyone! The fat bob is growing on me.
Slim! I put 12” t-bars and Thrashin Supply bags on it. Dope. Looks like a mini bagger with Dyna flair. Also have Memphis shades hand guards. Can’t decide if I want the full fairing but it’s available.
The Slim is a great bike. I have one and the stock seat does suck. Added a Mustang seat and now it’s good for all day rides. I did think I would like footboards but now I love them. Going from a 2016 XL1200C to the Slim was easy transition. Slim, Heritage then the Fat Bob.
That Fat Bob is one badass machine. 👍🇺🇸
Love the softail line up. Heritage, Slim then FatBob for me... and I own a FatBob lol (it's a Dyna though). Cool VLOG guys and thumbs up on having Anna & AA- Ron as guest as well. Strange how there were 3 different opinions on the same 3 bikes
Cool video! I have a 2020 heritage classic V107 and love it. Like the man said, the bike can be stripped down in 5 minutes and its a street cruiser. I would use it for touring but not long tours.
Haha that "Chinese fire drill" and the mystery of N :D
My fav one is the last one you rode,the green one
uuuuuh try one of dem Road Kings I saw at the end :D
Great video! I'm still happy with my fatbob stage IV...
im 5 foot 4-- i got a 2019 softail slim and its perfect for shorter riders! i did put the harley 1 and 3/4 risers in it tho and kept the stock bars.( w/ a little wiring finess i didnt even need the extension kit) so far i only have a 2 bros 2 into 1 exhaust fp3 tuner and a big sucker on it and about 4k miles. i would def say the seat is lacking-needs a little bit more lip on the back to prevent sliding back. going to try the fatbob seat and see if that corrects the issue.
I have the Heritage 114 and I love it. I love that the windshield comes off in about 2 seconds and the bags come off with two bolts each. Unlike a touring bike the Heritage looks good without the bags and windshield. Basically it is a blacked out Deluxe. The Slim is nice, but it is more of a Deluxe with a bobber style to it. The stock seat on it is terrible though. I like the floorboards because I move my feet around on them. I don't leave them in one spot. Also why I don't like a heel shifter because it locks your feet in one spot. I would like to ride the FatBob though and see what it is like.
Seat test "Ass and Ball Approved"
I would have to test ride each one to say on preferences, but there all nice looking bikes. Thanks Block, Ana and Aaron for the test ride!
funny that he could not find neutral, but then she did. lol .
the 6 fist bump with explosion = EPIC ! lmbo.
awesome video !!
6000 thumbs up !! [ for the info on the 3 bikes, and the epic fist bump ] .
I just demo'd all 3 of those.
1. Slim had the nicest throttle response, but the worst suspension and ergonomics. Seat is way too low.
2. Fatbob is a really nice riding bike, but it was warm this weekend and the bikes had been ridden several times before I got on it, so I learned on this ride that its exhaust kisses my leg and gets really warm.
3. Heritage is hands down the best Softie they make. It's looks don't do a thing for me, but it flat works.
Boring straight roads, would be useful if your reviews included some windy roads so we can get some feedbank on how the bikes actually handle. I think Ana should just bite the bullet and buy the Softail LR S.
@Just J I live in Florida and the riding here is not what it was in California for sure!
After watching a bunch of these and seeing a ton of videos on the Vulcan, I am getting really close to wanting a cruiser lol
fun way to review multiple bikes ... well done ... cheers
Heritage. U can change the whole looks in 5 min. Good around town & highway bike !!
Always like seeing what the new models are like. Thought Aaron was gonna rip the Sportie but was glad when he said he does like his Sporty still. Me I love my 1200 xlc and have a blast in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mtns. My 1st to 3rd boat anchor choices would be, Fatbob, Heritage, and Slim. Now if someone were to give me one free and clear I would accept it. But they just aren't my cup of tea anymore.
I love my 2018 Heritage, the best bike i ever had
Slim awesome I loved it!
I use my bikes for commuting / work so for me definitely Heritage. For me riding is about function.
The slim..the Bob..the Heritage. Cuz I Love the handeling of the Slim and the look and the price.
Fat Bob, Heritage, and Slim
The Fat Bob is beautiful to me every since you test drove the 2019
Bell yeah!
Great video!
I love my big bagger bike:) Electra Glide:) I took my heal shifter off.
My slim has 16 inch ape hangers on it and its pretty damn comfortable but then im 5 foot 8" so with the apes and the low seat height it feels damn good!
For me it would be the Heritage, Fat Bob and then the Slim. My brother has a brand new 114" Fat Bob and the looks grow on me every time I see it. I have been avoiding riding it because I'm afraid I would love it and cost me way too much money. My uncle has an older Heritage he'd be willing to make me a great deal on, and that's the direction I'm leaning towards.
Awesome video guys. I’m 6foot 4 and have size 14 feet so I would go for the heritage. But I like the fat bob.
Fat Bob. Hands down. With mods, it's a phenomenal bike.
Blockhead it sounds to me like a sport glide is what you need. Order of those 3 for me would be slim, fat bob, heritage.
I love your content
If Anna had a different seat on the slim that pushes her forward she would love it. Also it would make the floor boards feel pulled back.
I own a Heritage (one of my 3 bikes) havent ridden the Breakout, and I love the style and feel of the Slim
What are your other bikes?
@@JOHNJCLARK I have a 97 sportster 1200c, 88 Heritage Softail, and a 19 Honda Grom
nice work!
That got to be the most social test right I have seen.
Fat bob, slim, heritage. I think.....I've never ridden any of those so purely based on looks/my style.
It really depends on you and how comfortable you are at being less comfortable. You can make it comfortable enough to do long rides for sure. Also because they’re lighter and smaller. If you get somewhere with windy roads they’ll handle better. I have a street glide special. But if I had to pick a bike to customize and do touring. I’d go with the road king. It has the best handling of the touring bikes and you can take the windshield off so making the bike yours has a lot more options imo.
I have a slim and love it but maybe Ana would find the Sport Glide a better fit for her, foot pegs and different seat and looks great with the bags and the screen removed.
FAT BOB WITHOUT A DOUBT FOR ME!!! I just completed my MSF course with Harley Davidson this past weekend and I am definitely looking at taking the Fat Bob for a spin soon to see what I truly think of it. I am looking at either the Fat Bob, Breakout (weirdly enough), and the Street Bob.
Love my 2020 Slim, like a Cadillac compared to the 1200 Sportster I had.
FYI at 9:30 you mention not enough room between the floorboards and shifter. You can actually raise or lower the angle/height of the shifter based on the size of your feet and where they land on the floorboards. I thought the same thing when I sat on it but the salesperson told me you have to adjust them up or down per your physical attributes... lol
I actually found the Fat bob to be really comfortable, and I'm about the same size as Block. The seat on it is way more comfortable than you would expect. If I was going to build a touring bike out of any of the new Softails, probably the Sport Glide or a Low Rider S but converted to forward controls, the Heritage is nearly perfect out of the box, but too much old man vibe there. The Fat Bob is comfortable enough, at least for me, but that 3.5 gallon tank is a deal breaker
Shawn Smoak got me liking the Slim and I really like the style. His bars and bike overall seems to look better in the denim black which I like better. #2 you can't go wrong with the classic styling of the Heritage. So that leaves The Fatbob which would just need to many changes to make it right for my taste. 😎✌
Slim's awesome, the Heritage is kinda like between touring and cruiser, but the Slim's better looking
I love my 2017 Slim
From everything you've said you want Block, Sport Glide but customized. And doesn't A Aron work at a Harley dealership? Easy to trust with bikes? Just a guess.
I like ur videos and truly enjoy the content you provide. The one question. If u know u would be best suited on a bagger. Why not buy a bagger. I’ve had Sportsters, Dynas, and got on a SG when I was 30. Absolutely love it and am not a brand snob nor hate on any other model. I would go heritage slim and then the bob. Thanks for the content
Styling wise - Fatbob, Slim, Heritage. Usability wise- Heritage, Slim, Fatbob. I test rode the Fatbob at a Demo Days just on Saturday and I felt too cramped up. For reference, I'm 6'3" 300 lbs and currently have a 14 Street Bob and a 15 Street Glide and they are way more roomy for my tall ass.
My order would be Heritage, Fat Bob, then Slim. I’d really like to see a test ride between a Heritage and a Street Glide Special. Those are the two I’m torn between right now!
Jerry Springer “be good to yourselves and each other”
You should have someone film you just sitting/riding the bikes you test ride so we can get a feel of how they look on your body type
FXFBS all day! Love my ‘19.
I listen to these videos with my helmet on to hear what is like to have friends with senas.
Looks wise that Slim's classic lines are nice. I have a 72 so I'd probably go for a heritage especially working 80 miles away from home. The fxdr and fat bob I would rent, but if I wanted to go sporty I think I wouldn't go harley, probably get another ninja or something.
Like the Slim , Fat Bob, Heritage last. Funny I have and love the Deluxe.
People compare the iron with the yamaha bolt. What is your take on that ive been deciding between those two.
Fat Bob all day long and twice on Sundays. Anticipation builds, what will Blockhead buy?
nicceee
Why does that slim have forward floor boards? I'm pretty sure the one I test road had more mid control floorboards.
Has Ana ever been on a touring bike? Would like to know what she thinks of the Road King Special! Get that test ride in Blockhead!
Fatbob, Slim, Heritage and I ride a bagger now, 2019 Road King Special, but if you're going to build for distance might as well go all out. The touring frame is just so much more smooth. If you were only going to get one bike and you wanted it to be an all in one the Heritage I can see the appeal but lets be honest, you're not only going to have one bike.
DAMN it...u guys got me all twisted and confused now....I don't know wich to pick!!!!!!
no more heal shifters ,have to put them on later or pay extra.
Heritage, fat bob, then slim. Blockhead you should build out a Heritage, it would suit your need, and they look good striped down too!
If I was replacing my '09 FXDL I would prob go Fat Bob, Heritage, then Slim. If I was adding a bike to the stable I would go Heritage, Fat Bob, Slim.
agree with skinny tires :))
1. Fat Bob
2. Slim
I ended up upgrading to the street bob from the iron, the Fat Bob was close though.
Does the FXFBS have a gear indicator?
Fat bob any day
Heritage when im 50 plus
Slim not my cup of tea
I wish the fat bob came with 5 gallon tank or the option to swap it out with low rider tank
T-bars for fat bob and chizzled for heritage would be nice
I took a test ride on the new 2020 Low Rider S last week... beautiful bike but it left me wanting more for some reason? Just something about the ergonomics of the rider triangle, I felt too on top of the bike and I couldn't stand the bars on it. Sure, all that could be changed via the Harley tax 😉 still prefer my Dyna... for now...
I felt the same way after taking the Low Rider S our for a test ride. It’s still a really cool bike, but the Fat Bob is the best bike Harley makes.
Heritage, Fat Bob then slim but I am somewhat biased because I ride a Heritage already
What happens if you drop or have an accident on a test ride at an HD dealer?
I really like the Fat Bob, but it's just waaaaay too expensive. I got a triumph bobber for half the price and have zero complaints.
I still think you should do a Road King!!
I don't think Anna has liked any bike she has test rode yet? Lol
Blockhead you might want to look at the Road King Special? I know it's a bagger but just barely.
Dude why isn’t your stuff comping up on my feed!? It’s been like a year or so since I’ve seen a vid. I had to search for this one.
M8 Heritage all day long!!
Sportglide is what you need.
But it's not the hero I want, haha
