Harley Davidson really makes you feel like you’re part of a big family. When I got my Harley my wife wasn’t able to come with me, I felt like a little kid explaining my time at Disney World. One of the best moments in my life so far.
Congratulations on your ST! When I rang my bell at Barnes Harley-Davidson in Edmonton, they had the thunder of half dozen Bikes roaring in the showroom. It was awesome!
That's so frigging awesome dude. The roar of freedom!
I love how Harley makes you feel like part of a big family. I rang the bell at Gator Harley in Leesburg, FL a couple years ago with my first bike
@@bierutki That's awesome man. What did you end up getting? RRHD has been great since I bough my bike. They've reached out several times just to say hi and if I had any Qs on the bike. I'm actually going to an event and will be making a video for it tomorrow. I've really been enjoying my ST. Glad I made the choice to jump all in. Thanks for commenting my friend. I just released a new video today. Hope you can watch and comment also! Talk soon!
Is it true you can’t remove the fairing or the bags?
@@fridaynightrydes I got a sportster. Wasn’t new but practically was. Get this it’s 2016 iron 1200. At the time I bought it it only had 150 miles on it. Something I guess bought it and parked it. Still was in the break in period LOL. Been modded up by me like crazy since then. I love the thing. I’ll check out your videos and subscribe for sure. Im working on growing my channel too. Return the favor?
Congratulations on your new bike. I felt your excitement. Wear all the gear all the time (ATGATT), good luck, and be safe.
I’m not a Harley fan but any bike is better than none. Congratulations brother!
Badass experience! Congrats dude! Thanks for sharing this with us.
Congratulations on your purchase!
Congratulations man an welcome to the family!! Ride safe!
The parts guy did an awesome job! Just so you know, Harley doesn't have a process, dealers have a process and this dealer has it dialed in!
Thank you for this video man! I’ve been looking for a video like this for months now. Always wanted to see the purchase and ride off when you buy the bike. I’m so anxious to get mine already but I have some more saving to do. Ride safe out here man and enjoy that badass bike!
Thanks brother. I went through the same experience and geared my channel towards that. I couldn’t find what to expect other than talking vids and I couldn’t find videos that showed in large part what the bike looked like riding down the street and not from a helmet or bike mount. I’m thankful u dropped by and hope to see you again soon. Maybe we can get that announcement when you get that bike. Let me know if you got a channel and I’d be glad to support. Take care brother.
Congratulations on your new sweet ride. Ride Safe ✌️
I'm hoping to feel that excitement next year.
Damn bro that’s hella exciting knowing what you got coming next year. Thanks for watching and commenting. Keep me posted as I’d be glad to support your channel.
Congrats! Can’t wait to see what personal touches you do to your bike! Red Rock HD is huge! Looked like a fun buying experience.
Thanks for watching. Got so much planned and excited to see what direction I go. The buying experience was definitely not what I was expecting!
Congratulations on your new Harley-Davidson motorcycle. I use to work at a Harley-Davidson Dealership. I think the guy that reviewed the parts manual did an excellent job.
They were super helpful. HD left a lasting and good impression on me. I realize it's sales and they have to be nice but I couldn't tell. I just liked how they treated me with respect. Thanks for watching brother.
Awesome, glad your happy, nice ride
100%! Welcome to the family. Congrats. Peace
Whew ... - Nice Ride brother.... look forward to your adventures on it.
Congratulations. Be safe and welcome to the family.
Congrats from Wilmington NC!!! The HD blood runs deep! See you on the road maybe 1 day.
What’s up Wilmington NC! Home to his Airness MJ, right? I appreciate you watching and your kind words brother. Hit me up if you ever find yourself in Vegas. We’re working with some moto clubs now for events and features on this channel. Would be glad to show u around the scene if you drop by. Take care and ride safe brother.
@@fridaynightrydes, MJ went to the same high school as my boys. Laney high school is less than 4 miles from my house and he still donates to the school after all these years. Ride when you can bro cause its never enough..
Congratulations and welcome to the Harley family!! 👍👏🤝
What an awesome experience. Congratulations and enjoy that beast!
Thanks brother. She is one helluva beast.
Congratulations! I've owned three Hondas and Two Harleys and Harley Davidson definitely treats you like family. I love the Harley culture.
Congrats on the new bike! What an awesome feeling to get that new bike.
Unbelievable! Makes a grown man cry for joy. 😂
Buying a Harley from a solid dealership is an experience and a really fun one. Cool video dude and nice bike. 🤙
I bought my first Harley-Davidson in 2021, a 17 Road King. I put on 3500 miles this last summer. Congratulations!
Your in vegas my childhood home . I recently moved to NYC what a big change
Congrats. Just bought my Road King from Texas Harley last week and went through all the bell ringing and congrats from staff and people in the store. What a great moment. Have fun on your new Street Glide!!
I LOVE the Road King. Slap some leather pro bags and I’m good to go! Thanks for your kind words brother and congrats on your bike also! Thanks for watching and hope to see you again soon! Btw, I lived in Houston for a few years. I love Texas!
Congratulations On Your Ride.💪
Congratulations brother! Welcome to the Harley Davidson family and great choice on the bike
Thanks brother. Glad to be a part of the family. I appreciate you for watching!
Lots of blessing thanks for sharing
I can’t wait for that feeling hopefully in the spring. Congrats bro!
Aw man that's exciting. So happy you're going to get that feeling soon. Check back in and let me know how it goes! Which one are you going for?
Congrats on that beautiful bike! And thank you for sharing your experience, enjoy the ride!
I appreciate you my friend. Thanks for watching and commenting. Ride on!!
Nice bike man, and great video. Bought my first Harley about 4 months ago from Southern Thunder HD near Memphis.. after wanting one for years. I had no idea about the royal treatment they give you when you buy one. What an experience! Thanks for sharing and congratulations on that ST!!
Congrats to you as well my brother! It was very humbling to see the kind of love and attention HD gives their customers. First time ever I wasn’t high pressured into something I didn’t want to do. They asked me timeline and when I think I wanted to pull the trigger. I gave them a month and they continued to support in the weeks leading up to the purchase. Pursuing and caring for your customer without being overwhelming is something they’re good at. I always say, you really don’t have to sell a Harley, they sell themselves. Thanks for watching and hope to see you on the next video!
I did that too. congratulations for your new Harley.
Congratulations man. I'll be joining your experience in a year from now!
Thats so damn awesome. Drop by and let me know when you get it. Would be glad to support your channel.
Good for you man!!!
I am genuinely happy for you sir , I hope to have that 117 st bagger .
congrats and welcome to the family. nice editing as well. subbed! liked
Many thanks for watching brother. Glad to be part of the family.
Congrats! Got my brand new Lowrider S 2020 2 years ago so I know the feeling bro! Its a bit surreal! Drive safe and have fun ( I know you will :).
Congratulations on your new HD man, best feeling also got one last year
Congratulations my brother. Enjoy
Congrats brother! Ride safe!
Congratulations! Last year I bought new street glide special and anticipate you will be very happy with this purchase. Mine is a dream come true. Seat and rear shocks and short windshield had to go to the trash. I also drilled small holes in the circumference of the rear exhaust baffles as apposed to spending money on slip on's.
Congrats on your first ride man! Thanks for taking us on this adventure. Now I want to buy a harley one day. The experience alone seems awesome. Welcome to life on 2 wheels! You earned a new sub boss!
Thanks brother. I appreciate your time in watching. It was a great experience that I hope you’ll get to experience soon!
Great video, congratulations on your ride. Cool dealership, I’d like to get there some day. Ride safe!
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations and welcome to the Harley family! (Great video too! lol)
Many thanks my friend. Happy to be a part of an amazing community! Hope to see you commenting on other videos in the future. We got some fun stuff planned.
What an awesome journey!! thanks for recording this and taking us through it. Much appreciated
Congratulations btw.
Aw man it was nothing. I’m glad to be able to contribute to the HD family. I have so much joy from this bike I want ppl to feel it! Thanks for watching and I hope to see you again soon!

Congratulations, brother.
Beautiful bike. Ride safe & enjoy.
I appreciate you brother. Thanks for the kind words. I love that thing! Wishing you safe rides also!
Congratulations!
Park it in the living room, it is beautifull. That store is very cool.
Awesome thnx for sharing!!
Anytime bro. Glad I can share my experience!
Congratulations, that's how you pick up a new machine. Cheers from Victoria Australia
Miss living and riding in Vegas. Where i started bike life. Congrats on the bike sir and stay vigilant out there its a jungle especially Decatur, and spring moutain lol as im sure you know!
Congratulations brother on the beautiful bike. I bought my first Harley, a Roadglide in reef blue on the same day, Halloween. Definitely didn't get that treatment from my dealership but I did get my bell rung. Lol. Could fit a half dozen of my dealerships inside red rock. Ride safe bro.
Congrats on the new bike. I picked up a new Lowrider ST this year. Be safe and enjoy.
The Lowrider ST is a bad ass bike bro. I wanted one but couldn’t get one in stock during my timeline. Be safe and enjoy your ride too brother. Thanks for watching. Hope to see u comment again soon.
Street Gide..beautiful Sir 👍😁
Earlier this year I was on a road trip from Ohio to California. Made a side trip to Vegas. A problem came up on my street glide special. I went to the dealer that's on the strip. They said that they couldn't see me till the next day. I didn't want to wait and frankly I didn't think the problem was very serious. I just wanted the dealer to double check. After asking several times for them to squeeze me in I kept getting the same response. That's when I rode over to Red Rock Harley. I explained the situation and they said bring it in. After about 30 mins they said I was good to go. As I kinda figured it wasn't too serious, but I wanted to get it checked. Red Rock is great and next time I am in the area I will go there if need be and not to the dealer that's on the strip. If you do any long distance riding and camping like I do I would suggest getting the quick detachable king tour pack. When you have the tour pack on there's plenty of room for your gear and you can strap on some gear on top of it as long as you have the rack. With the tour pack on it's like a Cadillac. With the tour pack off it's like a sports car. Like having two bikes in one. Congrats on your scoot. Very nice. Be prepared to spend some hard-earned money. Pipes were first for me. That's cool that the dealer played the music you requested. Again. Congrats on your new ride.
Thanks brother. I’m glad RRHD was able to take care of you. I hate dealerships because I always feel took even when I negotiate what I feel is a fair deal. They usual ghost you afterwards but they sent me text and event reminders from my guy there. Glad you were safe on your way. I’ve been thinking about a tour pack because I travel a lot for work. Thanks for the tip. What’s the weight difference? Is it much harder to ride or pretty easy going once you get joint. How about the turn angles. Anyhow, thanks for watching my friend. I appreciate your support!
@@fridaynightrydes If I remember correctly the king tour pack weighs about 45 lbs. Keep in mind that you need the passenger back rest and I have the large tour pack rack. You can really tell it's back there when you do slow speed maneuvers. Of course when you are going straight down the road it's hardly noticeable. Keep us posted on your upgrades. I have Reinhart slip ons and love them. They are not obnoxiously loud which I like. When camping I try to ease outta the campground and not make too much noise. And where I live I respect my neighbors and take it easy pulling out of my drive.
Another CZcamsr Everything’s Regular used to use Red Rock Harley for all his stuff. I like how you put it about getting that Harley symbolizing all your hard work. I’m hopefully getting my Harley soon….. Either FXBBS, FXLRS/ST
Sounds like Buckeye Harley in Dayton!
@@spoom937 well I had an experience with them. While shopping for my bike I contacted them to see if they had what I was looking for. I can't remember exactly what they said but they asked the price of my bike at my local dealer. I told them and they said that they would beat that price by $5k. I was shocked. So a few days later I went out to see the guy that had told me this over the phone. The salesman chuckled and said that "I just wanted to get you in the door." Needless to say that left a bitter taste in my mouth. So I won't be doing business with them unless it's an emergency.
Congratulations. Awesome bike, best of luck
Thanks Greg. I appreciate your comment!
I'm I'm glad you got yourself a Harley I'm jealous. but I'm glad for you 100% at least somebody's getting a Harley. I'm 70 years old and I'll never have a Harley. I've been wanting one since I was oh Lord have mercy since I was17 18 years older.
Thanks for your kind word my friend. I’m really thankful for the opportunity to have one of these bikes. I appreciate you taking the time to comment and letting me know your thoughts. I hope to see you again in the future brother.
Congratulations welcome to the club. I got a 22 Road Glide limit gunship gray color love it.
Thanks brother. I love that color too.
@FRIDAY NIGHT RYDES you welcome brother.👍🇵🇷🙂
Congrats man! I work at a Harley Dealership here in Cbus, Ohio however I started out as a customer just like everyone else and the way I see it is buying an HD especially if it’s your first one is like taking your first step as a child. It really is a whole different life from there onwards.
Absolutely my friend I agree. Thanks for your comment!
Congrats! Big moment, perfect bike 🔥
Thanks brother. I’m really happy with this choice.
Dude! Just bought my Road Glide ST last week. Same experience here in Houston. It's an amazing bike. Nice video. What the heck I was there on Halloween. Im subbing up dude. Cheers
Thanks brother. I just moved from Houston about 2 years ago. My home away from home. The Road Glide is so fucking bad ass man. That shark fairing is beasty. We were Glide brothers on Halloween! Many thanks for your sub. I appreciate and Cheers to you also.
Nice video. Enjoy the bike.. Got two Harleys in my garage...
Wow man! Thank you for the video. Dreaming of HD... So at least could have the excitement through your experience. Hope you are enjoying the ride!
Glad you enjoyed it! Still loving every bit of it. Thanks for watching. Where you writing from?
@@fridaynightrydes Tampa FL
Just found your channel. Congratulations on your new bike!
Thanks my friend. Glad to see you here!
Congrats on your Harley! I bought my ‘19 Deluxe from Las Vegas Harley but have been taking my bike over to Red Rock Harley for service. Wife has a ‘14 Super Low Sporty that she bought from Red Rock Harley. Both places, it’s a production when you buy your baby!
Think about joining the local HOG chapter. It’s all Harley owners who just want to ride! They do a whole bunch of rides, just about every week. And some are just rides to grab a bite and back all the way to a weeklong ride. Back in May or so, we went to Zion in Utah for an overnight.
But, yeah Red Rock will definitely take care of you no problem.
So happy for you. Brother. Still a dream for me. Drive safe brother.
The dream lives on. Don’t give up on it. Hope to see you on the road one day!
Awesome Bike man i just love the shape of the Bagger Congrats on getting it the colour is awesome to i. own the Harley Shovelhead and im thinking of buying the bagger but still enjoy it man its a sweet Ride! huge fan of Harley Davidson.
Congratulations 🎉 & good luck 🍀👍!
Thanks brother. Super excited about what experiences I will have with this bike. I appreciate you for watching.
Congrats ! Good choice , can't go wrong with Harley Davidson.Enjoy your ride , Be safe ! Don't forget to tell your wife that you need a Gremlin Bell if you don't have one already. Remember
you can't buy it yourself, Has to be a love one . Ride safe and welcome to the Harley community.
Many thanks for watching my friend. My bell is coming in the mail courtesy of my wife. Glad to continue on the tradition and thanks for watching. Your support is appreciated as I try and grow this channel.
Congratulations! Enjoy and be safe
Thank you! Will do!
Congratulations on your new joint!
Thank you brother!
Congrats ✌️
I got a low rider S 117 last week and its freaking crazy bike. I cannot wait for the 1000km service so I can rev above 3000rpm. oh yeah 🤙
My brother I feel you!!! I rev it up to 3500k and left wanting more! Feels like that M8 is not happy unless it’s above 2.5-3k. It’s so much fun to ride. Congrats to you brother. Any plans for a channel? Let me know and I’d be glad to support! Thanks for watching!
@@fridaynightrydes thanks bro. not sure but a channel is not a bad idea
Congratulations, I almost bought my Harley Heritage at Red Rock Harley-Davidson but the finance guy was a jerk so a few months later when the 2022 models were announced I went and bought at Las Vegas Harley-Davidson on the strip. I wanted the crimson and chrome and It took almost five months to come in after I placed my deposit. ( well worth the wait) They were much more friendly there however I didn’t get a parts book but they did give me a t-shirt.
Have Fun Man. ✌️
Happy for you brother 👊🏼, great video. Keep the rubber side down.
Hafa adai brudda!!!
Congrats on the new ride!!!
I got the road glide st.. your going to love you bike bro!!!
Have fun ride safe!! 🤙🏽
Hafa adai my Chamorro bruddah! I’m not Chamorro by blood but so many of my homies are. Glad to have u on the channel bro. Where are you located? I’m in Vegas so hit me up if you’re ever in town. I appreciate your support bro!
@@fridaynightrydes hell yeah!!! I’m in daygo bro. When I plan that rode trip out there I will definitely hit you up bro
Yeah great vid I just bought a Road Glide it's a work of art
Great Video. The ride home on your new Harley is always a memorable one, I decided to not take the freeway cause I wanted to cruise through town. Main road had water running across it. Got my new bike dirty BUT, it was a great ride. Enjoy your new bike. Park that thing in the living room so you can watch TV while you clean it up. LOL
Lol I was the same bro. I’m a take it easy kind of guy and wanted to play it safe. Glad I did and made it home safely. What a great memory.
Congratulations, Beautiful Bike.✌🏿🙏🏾
Thanks Darryl I appreciate you. Hope to see you comment again soon!
Really enjoyed your purchase experience. I hope to experience that someday...safe riding from OHIO
I just started riding on a 125 here in Scotland. Can't wait to get my full license next year.
Buying an Harley has been a dream of mine for 30 years, can't wait to make it true someday
Congrats man. Nice bike 👍
Welcome to the harley family friend. You will see things down the road being harley family. Ride safe
The HD family is so amazing. I’ve never seen so much care and kindness from a Motorsport community ever. Glad I’m part of that good energy. Ride safe and take care brother. Hope to see you again soon!
What a lovely new bike - Buying a HD is an experience. I'm in Sydney and I can't speak highly enough about Harley Heaven, Tempe. They are awesome. Even bikes with security systems like mine need a battery tender/trcikler unless you are riding every day. Great video - thank you
Awesome video man. I bought my first Harley from a friend who needed some $$$ and he physically couldn't ride any more. My second (and current) Harley was bought at HD and we went through a similar thing to you. We had a poker run, (my hand sucked LOL) and the bell I rang was donated by a local FD and my dealership donates money to the fallen firefighters fund to help out their families. I helped my son buy a Harley and we too did the same thing and I got video of him ringing the bell. Its an awesome experience. Best part of it all is going for rides with my boy and teaching him how to work on the bike.
That's what life's about my friend. That experience with your son will carry on for a lifetime and that's priceless. Thanks for watching my friend. I appreciate your comment - I have a nice video coming out of me riding through Lake Mead. I think you'll like it.
I'm a little late to seeing this, but congrats to you! I've been riding Harley's for 25 years. Next year will be bike #5! Wife and daughter learned to ride this year. It doesn't get old. Hope you are enjoying your ride, that ST is nice!
Thanks man, it’s been great! Right on brotha! It’s definitely something I can see my wife and kids get into also. They already love the lifestyle and are proud to be part of. I appreciate you stopping by and watching the video! Hope to see u again!
That’s cool !!! I purchased my first Harley and it felt weird but cool I couldn’t believe it!!! I never rode a Harley motorcycle before
I'm happy for you man and know exactly how you feel about getting a new bike..
I’ve waiting a long time for this experience and am so thankful to have it. With everything that’s going on in the world, I had to celebrate not losing my marble due to COVID. Thanks for your kind words brother. Hope to see you on the next video!
Nice ride my friend! I owned a street glide for 13 years. She was good to me. Now I have a road glide.
Thanks for watching! How do you like the RG compared to the SG?
@@fridaynightrydes being 6'4", I like it quite a bit more. I don't feel cramped. It feels more limber. I like the added storage in the fairing you get with the road glide.
Welcome to the Obsession!!
Be Safe out on that Sweeeeeet Ride!!
Beautiful ride !🎉
Thank you brother!
Congrats on your sweet new ride! I got my first Harley - a new Road Glide Limited - last year, and I’ve been killing miles on it ever since. I still take time every day, even on days when I’m not riding because of the weather, to just stand in my garage and admire it. 👍🏻
I'm the same way brother. Had to ask my wife if I was being weird staring at it and shining it and stuff like that. It's a love that I never thought I'd have for a material thing. Its brought me so much joy and that's what I want to show with my channel. Thanks for watching and let me know if you have a youtube channel that I can support. Would love to see that Road Glide Limited!
Thanks! I have a “channel”, but it’s mainly been to put stuff for the grandkids to see, and only a few at that. Though, for the last year or so I haven’t made video much of a priority. My wife and I really just enjoy the ride. I really should make the effort to post more… done some really cool rides in that time and planning more.
Love your comment about staring and polishing it. I do get it. 👍🏻
Ride safe brother.
My wife and I are the same. I have yet to put a 2 up seat and maybe a tour pack in the future but I need to recover a bit after purchasing my bike. It would be cool to see you posted. I’d love to follow your journey.
I hear ya there. It can be an expensive pastime. As they say, “HD” stands for “hundred dollars” because that’s the minimum that leaves your wallet for every single visit to the dealer. 😂😵
Will try to put up something new in the future. I know we’ll be making some overnight trips coming up, and next summer we’re planning a big trip.

I just came across your channel and subscribed as I'm happy to support a fellow moto content creator. The ST is an awesome bike. Ride safe and enjoy the ride. 👍👊🇺🇸
Thanks brother. I appreciate you stopping by and subbing. Subbing you right back! Been really enjoying the ST. Wishing you safe rides as well. Come back soon!
@@fridaynightrydes 👊👍🇺🇸
nice vid mate, they really go above and beyond🤘
They sure did. I totally did not expect it and was a bit surprised when they asked me about getting started. It felt great and it was cool to experience it with another couple and their dog. It was a memorable Halloween for sure. Thanks for watching brother. Hope to see you on the next video!
@@fridaynightrydes i got a new breakout about 2 weeks ago, australians are a bit relaxed, did get a photo with it at the dealership
Welcome to the H-D family Bro!!!
Thanks Donnie I really appreciate it and never been happier to be a part of a community. I appreciate you for watching and hope to see you again in another video!
That was awesome my friend, I had mine deliver should have picked it up instead, good video.
I was given the options because my kids wanted to get home to trick or treat. But I had to ride that bike home. I had to 😂
