The Evo was the engine that pulled Harley out of the deep hole that "THEY"....had put the company in. Best Harley engine ever made. I've rode and owned different makes of motorcycles for 40 + years. I own a 05 Honda and a '97 Wide Glide now. Guess which one gets rode the most.......
The 2005 Honda?
$4,700.00 buys it today. Only 17,836 miles. Motor sounds smooth. My only concern would be tires, their age more than their thread depth. Old rubber gets hard and don't hold the road as good. Great bike...no computer sensors, no catalytic converter, just a pure machine. This bike you can make your own repairs. Buy this bike now.
Tires for that size are fairly cheap and very easy to replace on a Saturday morning.
It does use electronic ignition and a computer for that. They are very bullet proof though.

In Australia a H-D like this would cost 8 to 10,000 Australian dollars. Buyers are actually importing them from the USA into Australia. I like the Evo motor. They are simple in construction and easy to work on. Set them up properly and then ride the motorcycle properly and they will last as long as any other motorcycle motor.

The single cam EVO engine had Metal Gears for cam operation and a bolted together crankshaft. It was a solid machine and classic Harley. And replacement parts, both OEM and aftermarket are easy to find and to obtain. EVOs run much cooler than the Twin Cam engines too.
You don't need to rev the crap out of a Harley. Change up earlier to keep the revs down and enjoy the torque. Agree with you about forward controls. They are OK around town but high speed touring with head wind makes it hard work keeping the feet on the pegs and spray from the front wheel fills the boots if it rains. You will appreciate the screen if you ride at 70mph on the freeway for a few hours.
My ole man has 2 lowriders. 1991 and 2001. Love them.
I know this video is at least 4 years old but for newbies researching the Low Rider, forward controls eliminate the option to have one of the three positions to place your feet when your butt goes numb on a long ride! First position at the mid controls second position at the highway pegs third position hooking your heels on the passenger pegs.
No it's not a good idea.... it's a great idea. Evo is the best motor harley ever built. Slap an EV27 cam in it and call it a life.
Of course ... I bought a 96 Harley-Davidson Softail Custom, which was from an official of the US embassy in Spain and I am very satisfied, first because it saved me 5,000 euros that a new one costs and second because it was an Evolution that they no longer sold.
That's a great price too. A excellent starter 1st hd. Don't kid urself hd are very dependable...
It's a Harley you don't have to rev the arse off it in every gear.
@1found1 I have no idea what that means.
@1found1 I have no idea what that means.
@1found1 Exactly.
That shifting was killing me😖
Ya I had to rewind that just to see the correction , 2001 an Evo ? Ha ha you really aren't savvy on the Harley's .
Great bike. I had one. Still riding a carbureted Evo Electra Glide.
I have a 86 Flst Harley Davidson and today I rode with an old head on a old evo just like mine and it was awesome like the new generation and the old generation riding for on the evos for the love of riding
Inherited a 2003 hugger 883. Must say after an M8 softail it feels light and nimble. Might do a 1200 conversion but overall a very nice way to get around
Good to have witnessed you changing your life with riding a man's bike!
Harley Davidson are excellent and very addictive to ride, I wave at a bikers but would eventually like to see everyone to eventually ride a hd or at least give them a try.
I use to be the ultimate hd shittalker then I met a friend that talked me in to buying one, I regret my former shit talking days. I was very wrong. U need to ride one to understand I guess.
You finally got a real life experience, instead of that invisible man in the sky stuff.
Starters you didn't say anything about Howard Road how it handled. You just kept saying over and over this is your first time to ride one
You Guy's Keep saying you don't like Windshields On Bikes ,But I have been riding since 1975 an I have had Bikes with /and with out . And having one saved me from eating a soda can that some moron threw out of a car window . I learned they are good . But I respect your view . just enjoy the ride . And God Bless , and stay safe .
It says 96 which is it? Yeah, easy target for a sport bike guy not even the same you’re comparing apples and oranges but there’s nothing like a Harley in the feel of the torque and that rumble between your legs you will be hooked
Have you learned to shift these better since this vid?
I hate foreward controls. I like the stock mids on my 2017 FXDL
ahhh....so you are one of those short guys then.......at 6'6" I find them horrible......
Hey, a friend in Tampa just gave me a 96 lowrider, 5 speed, I haven't ridden in 6 or 8 years. I'm 67, pretty fit, thinking of riding it, alone, back to Cumberland gap, about 12 14, hours. Might stop in Atlanta, ( around halfway), about two , seven hour shots! What do you think, are they pretty comfortable? I can always stop and rest, but I think I need that
That sound is you hear is you over-revving the motor and schitty schifting/clutch friction riding. Can you ride slow?
Jesus that’s a awesome machine!
Where do you get parts and accessories for a classic like this?
Terrible review of a classic. Dude, maybe read a couple of sentences about the motorcycle that you are selling.
Most ppl can't afford a new one...
Who's this guy??? Where's Craig n Shawn? Is this a rip off channel, just not the same
Please bring Sean back!
Yeh I agree
@@chrisdeuel2802 you know it brother, painful to watch this guy huh?!
They seem to last along time too.
I have forward controls plus mid pegs on my 1998 FXWG
and throw that windscreen away...or buy a car
I like this bike, what's something like this but with side bags, fuel injection, and a six speed? Thanks!
Just get a newer model of this bike
You can add all that easily to a newer one. Maybe a Heritage.
About $15,000 for a Roadking 3 or 4 years old.
You just described the dyna switchback.
Wearing tennis shoes? Evo engine? Carb or injected?
Carb
Yes very NICE Dyna!
Did you even get out of third gear? There's two more gears dude
Harleys are way way better than those useless crotch rockets.
You really need to learn how to ride a cruiser motorcycle. Like P.Scheerman said it is torture to watch how you ride this beautiful old lady.
This guy doesn’t know his bikes very well. That’s a lowrider not a super glide.
Just cause he got a single Harley wrong doesn't mean he don't know bikes. Hell, i'm sure there are more brands of bikes on the road that are not a Harley, and Harley makes a shit ton of different bikes themselves.
@@wolfdog7265 Or FXDL.
The point here was that this is a sales video for a particular bike. If I were looking to buy this bike and the sales guy in the video doesn’t know what the hell he is riding, why would I consider that dealership at all? There is a lot to be said for scripting a sales video for consistency, it only makes you look foolish if you refer to the object you are selling incorrectly. If I were in marketing for srk cycles, I’d have scrapped this video and reshot the bike with the correct model named. Know what I mean?
@BikeFriendlyTexas could not put it better myself mate 👍 got it in one 😮
I kinda want this bike.
Where is Sean???
+Donaldson Cole he is still around doing more test drives
Probably driving his bike like they do there 😅.
Ur flying guy.
holy geezz you cant hear the bike over him cause hes yelling
Jerky camera movements. Try to be more steady.
96 is not 2001
You use your turn signals at least😂😂😂😂 unlike your cohort😂😂😂😂😂
I wheelie my 93 lowrider
I also wheelie my 98 dyna wide. It has 20inch apes
@El Meat Beat mine 98cfxdwg is fully built and custom. Only thing wrong is the odometer went out awhile back. But I dont care. I love the bike and miles dont mean anything. These older bikes run forever if taken care of. Plus, they have that true origional harley sound
@El Meat Beat buy it lol, my brother just bought a 95 softail custom with 27k for 4400. If the bike looks well taken care of and not abused, then I think you did a good job. They will go up in value shortly, mark my words.
@El Meat Beat try to talk him down, but if it's all around in good condition then that's a great price.
@El Meat Beat as long as the previous owner signed over the title and then he signs it over to you, you're good. Get a bill of sale too, nothing fancy. The registration doesnt really matter whose name it's under. It could be under his wife on the title but him on registration, states vary. If the title is free and clear with no missing signatures from previous owners and the bike has no liens, you should be solid.
Those get really hot while idling u should shut it off if more then a few minutes imo...
Wtf
Lose the words of wisdom please
Who’s this dude? Where’s Shawn dammit
