      @@urbanadventurer5 i sold a week old 2023 cvo rg for a standard 2024. Front fork with spoke wheel makes the vvt cvo too light of the front. Only thing cvo has better is breaking.

    With a lot of Thrashin Supply parts being able to fit , and being able to drop in the screaming eagle 511 cam kit, you can turn the new Road Glide in an absolute ripper. Test driving it was not a good idea for my wallet this year. I wonder if Kraus's inverted front end can bolt right on too.

    Not a fan of the shark fairing, but I do love the batwing so the new street glide is what I've been looking at differently. Very nice bikes indeed, but I'll still be sticking to the Low Rider ST. I actually prefer my bikes to be simple, which the Low Rider fits that bill. The baggers got all these bells and whistles with the infotainment systems and all that, too much electronics for my liking I think. But I'll never say never, maybe one day I'll come around lol

    Anyone that sleeps on these '24's is sadly missing out. This thing changed the game compared to the '23 and previous Road Glide. The '24 is the best of all the '23 RG versions combined into a ridiculous value. It's more ST than the old ST and really doesn't give up anything critical. The new plastic is sexy as all get out and this liquid cooled motor is very satisfying stock with tons of hop up potential. It feels like a way smaller, much more nimble bike than it looks. I did Onyx Pearl over black, lol. Waited a long time for a bagger as I have been a hotrod FX Springer owner for over 10 years. That bikes iconic, but this thing will cause it to collect dust. Previous RG just hadn't done it for me and this just flipped the table over.

    Very good review and it's nice to see that you know how to be objective and not fixed in your certainties, but for my case even if I have to admit that the new Road Glide has progressed a lot and gained in qualities that it lacked, I don't like the new aesthetic line of which I do not like the new fairing which loses its characteristic visual identity with the double optics which had been part of its signature for a long time, nor the truncated saddlebags at the rear which are not larger but which have taken on a certain plumpness which makes the line less fluid, nor the tank with its angular profile and even less the new entirely digital dashboard which is too sophisticated and automobile-like which loses personality.
    I have liked the Road Glide for a long time which for me is THE bike to ride far and for a long time with luggage and passenger but from a personal point of view, at 64 years old it is a motorcycle which has become too heavy for me and for my exclusively solo use and more typical secondary roads I definitely prefer the new Softail chassis much more fun to ride, I'm on my third and today after a Sport Glide and a Heritage in 107 I really enjoy a lot more riding on my Low Rider S which I use almost daily and also for long journeys, perhaps I would switch to the ST for its more pronounced road side with its saddlebags and the better protection, I like its stripped-down look without screen or sound system which I don't feel the need for.

But even before I decided on the lowrider, no part of me wanted the new road glide and that was entirely based on the look. It might light the road great, but it is just ugly as all hell. And since I’ve never had a bagger I have no allegiance to the old style other than that it looks a million times better. I would totally get a 2023 over the 2024 without question.

      I'm sorry you feel that way - But to be real with you, none of this is a job/career for me, I do this because I'm passionate about this stuff - I do not own this bike and have no agenda to push it, honestly I've actually typically done the opposite, steering people towards the FXLRST - So if you really think there's some larger conspiracy here like me being on the HD payroll, I won't be offended if you keep it moving and wish you many a safe mile 🫶🏻
