"Blasting metalica at a decibel that even metalica fans are anoyed by" is the most accurate thing ive ever heard
Yup. Got a problem with that? 2012 CVO SG owner. Actually Pantera, Disturbed, Rush, Black Sabbath, etc....too
@@BSinNHthis is the way
I own a black street glide myself, not offended just blessed. Worked a lot to get it and always wanted one, some people never get to own or ride one. So be thankful no matter what color it is and be safe my friends
Amen brother , It's not about the color of your ride , It's about riding . btw, mines a 2014 FLHXS . in blackened cayenne sunglow .
I said I’d never buy a black street glide. While road king shopping I sat on a used one at a dealer that already was modified nicely. I now own a black street glide. 🤣. It’s the right bike for me. Love the stereo.
can not see a flippin' THING with the pouches on the wind screen ... LoL !!
Right haha
thats why i dont have them, blocks the terrain of the road.
although i can see them being useful
League of legends
Can't see anything even if they were off.
It's not about seeing, Brother. It's about being seen.
My dad has a non-black Street Glide as well. It's kind of hilarious you said that, because I always give him crap about that too. I would be envious if my bike held value the same way his did though. It's a great bike to just soak up highway miles, which is what he primarily uses his for.
Love my 08 SG. Its the perfect balance between style and comfort .
I've had smaller bikes in the past, and while yes they are fun, at the end of the day i wanted something where i can go miles and miles with comfort and without feeling beat up
My 08 red Street Glide is my 5th. And favorite Harley. Smooth and cool all day
Aaahhhh, not sure what’s different about this video setup but I keep trying to look over the dash (?) area to see the road.
Other than that it’s awesome. 🤗
I own a BLACK Street Glide and an Orange Road King, am I good??
I traded my beautiful Vmax in when I "upgraded" to my street glide. I still like my street glide, but regret the trade. Gimme back my vmax!
Said nobody ever @!
...and your post sort of sums up where H-D have gone wrong. I would love a Harley (am in the UK), but they just don't cut it when compared to other makes.
You ain't getting that V Max back .
Street Glide is not losing it's value.
Just sell it with all your metallica special edition cd's and buy another V-Max.
Shouldn’t have traded it in, just buy both, unless your wife wouldn’t let you
I'm not normally a Harley Davidson fan but I went on a small group ride this weekend and one of the guys had a 2019 HD Softail Slim. I fell in love with that bike. One of the coolest modern Harley's I've seen.
I watched the first 30 seconds of the video and of course I actually do have a black street glide 😂🙈
I like the color. Anything but a black Street Glide with Rinehart's. You cant go a mile without seeing one.
Wouldn't it be the same reasons as the video you did a year ago with the same title? Thanks for the reminders on why we love this ride.
Ha! Maybe he got lost in his bible verses and forgot. Gotta love this guy. Evidently buys and sells bikes (for a living?) but isn't exactly the sharpest knife.
Not the sharpest knife? 🤣 the dude has amassed over a million followers and a successful business in under 5 years.
My 2012 street glide has the road lights on the fairing. And yes its black. Lol cant help it black and chrome is just beautiful
The sound and feel of a Harley is why we love them and ride them.
Riding any reasonably piped Noisy Davidson is like playing an instrument on a stage. As you roll on, let off, and shift, you just spend the time listening to the song you are creating. Then you keep looking around to see if your fans are turning to look at you cruise by. It says “look at me , look at me”. And when you ride in a HD group, you all take turns playing solos. “Look at us, look at us”. We are sooooooo cool. Can’t say I miss all that since I got my Triumph 1200 Triple.
Aren't you special...
My first HD is a Street Glide 2011 with a full stage 2. I love it.
Can you see where you are going
Better then a Road Glide. It feels like the shark nose fairing is WAY to far away for me . 5’8. The Road Glide is better for taller riders.
Hey Sean, I would have enjoyed this ride much more if I could only see through those leather pouches :) My brother has a Street Glide and it is b-a-d-a-s-s! It's all black. He did rock some new pipes on it and I'm sure when he rides around his mountain community, the sound and reverberation must cause some minor avalanches. Like you I love the sound of the engine with just that classic music of the Harley stock pipes. I owned an '08 FLSTF while living and working in Southern California and regret selling it...got more than what I paid for it, though. I promised my wife that I would quit riding but man, when it's in your blood (since age 19, now 73) it's hard not to falter on a promise. I find myself looking forward to your rides. Don't be surprised that I make a journey up to your shop to pick up a bike.
I own a white Street Glide Special… I was of course going to get the black on black but once I seen the sand white pearl color… I changed my mind!! I still love the black on black look of course!! 🔥🔥🤙🏼
I sold HDs at a dealership and we called Street Glide the “me too” bike.
The GSXR is a "me too" bike also
What color was yours?
Road Glide= “same here” bike
Damn I wished I could afford to buy that bike. It’s beautiful
Haha if you work, you can afford it. That’s what the money lenders will tell you anyway
I have a stripped version of a stripped version of a stripped version of a Ultra Classic, it's called a Road King Custom lol
Decided not to ride the rest of this season and I sold my 09 Busa. Maybe at 30 years old it's time 2 buy my first Harley Davidson. The Street Glide really sounds like a winner.🤔😎
At the least a real good twist of the wrist wouldn't put you in "Get in the back of the car sir" speeds like a hayabusa lol
Is it coronavirus pandemic bull or are you just getting old way too fast?
@@dr.jiIIaIicecooper2587 Lmao no it's not that. I've had my share of sport bikes and I want to try something different like the Harley who know I might end up with both like most people a Cruiser and sport bike.
Well you know Suzuki makes a m109, go try one out before you sit on a toilet. The M or boulevard series comes in different flavors as well. They are in the cruiser class. Don't get a m50 though those are just disappointments unless you plan to travel from California to New York, then they have REALLY good fuel efficiency but they are slower than a fully loaded 93 civic and struggle to hit 60-70.
Thankful for my red 23 streetglide. Perfect for 5’11 200 lb rider as myself
Best motorcycle channel on YT, Thank you!! Love Harleys but addicted to Suzuki....great video!
The classic black street glide.. I got one with Kraus riser set up, ohlins suspension, trask 2:1, Hofmann designs carbon fiber front & rear fender, side covers, and dash.. I think you would like it 😎
After watching the movie 'Waiting' I will never buy a bike with a fairing called the 'batwing'
Da bwaiiiiin!!!
I have a 2012 ember red sunglow. I bought it because I didn't want to be like everyone else and I wanted to be seen by other drivers. I also wanted to be able to go on long rides in comfort. 6 gal fuel tank gives them incredible range.
Another non-black street glide owner is here. Have had my 2020 Street Glide special since she was new and I can easily see me riding her for another 10 years!
Have to say it. The fact that every time you go to do a ride you speak the “Words of Wisdom” made me subscribe to your channel. I appreciate the fact that there are other men out there who want to ride but are also unashamed of God’s inerrant word. Keep going strong brother. Sooner or later imma get me one of those street glides.
Funny. That's the only thing I don't like. Imaginary friends are for children.
Put 13 inch rear shocks on and lowers and u can ride accross country an be 100lbs lighter then an Electra Glide.
I like about 3 or 4 models from Harley, but the ones I like I really really really like
I bought a 2020 BLACK street Glide Special last week. I thought I have the only one. 😕
I bought a new street glide today,its not black!!,road my fatboy one last time 36 deg,rain night,January in ohio and I still loved it
That rokform system looks good but they are kinda insanely expensive for what they physically are.
I’v transferred 2 Bikes so far with your method . A 2006 nomad 1600 , and a 95th anniversary addition Dyna wide. Gone on the highway and city . Never entered my mind the Bikes would go anywhere. Learned it from you from your earlier video’s.
I have a black 2014 Street Glide 😂It's a firefighter special edition . I've thrown the HD and Kuryakyn catalog at it . Black and chrome and I absolutely love it . I did rent like a 2007 model in 2007.when i came to the States on holiday because I lived in England at the time. Fast forward in the States now got the 2014 but WOW felt like a different bike . Why? Well they did the project Rushmore on it bigger motor 103 thicker forks ect ect , it felt a LOT HEAVER . Its. Great on the move but I have to watch it paddling around the car park. Also my friend just bought essentially the same bike , BLACK 😂with the M8 107 in it . In my opinion Black is the best color for a slammed SG.
What’s up guys I’m Sean from SRKcycles, and this video is brought to you by Streetglide
I have the electra glide and I love it. It's my truck.
Yes
It's heavier, bigger and slower than your semi. And it breaks a lot more too. Nice
Perfect response!
I rented a Street Glide from Eaglerider a couple of years ago. It looked cool, sounded cool and was pretty decent at going straight. Definitely the type of motorcycle I'd prefer to rent rather than own.
I have a Street Glide. It is silver. I like it.
What dates Harley’s are the radio’s whether cassette or whatever. With Mp3’s, earbuds, helmet comm, smartphones, flat screens, all with downloads of music, Ditch the radio and big speakers. Loved your humorous videos
Recently purchased a 2009 street glide. Of course it is red hot sunglo
Those pouches ruin it for me. Why would ya put all those friggin pouches on the windshield LOL. My Street Glide is Midnight Blue. :-)
Same here 2019 Midnight Blue. Replaced a 2013 Blackline hard candy over beer bottle.
Gotta love the Street Glide
"I don't know what that other stuff stands for " hahaha you & I both sir
I'm going to look at a 2013 streetglide this afternoon. Wasnt in the market for one. I buy and sell bikes but generally on a much cheaper scale. Havnt found much lately and saw this streetglide advertised and threw out an offer I didn't think would be accepted and seller is willing to deal. Hopefully its as clean as the pictures. Book value is between 3k and 7k more than im paying so I should be able to make some cash and have fun riding until it sells. Has 17k miles, stage 1 upgrades with rinehart true duals. Just a nice clean streetglide.
You’re killing me I’ve been riding a Harley Davidson slim FXS for 12 years and thinking about trading it in for of course a black street glide flat black I guess that’s why there’s so many out there at a decent deal
I have the same bike (I went for the "Power Package" upgrade to the 103ci), color and year! I've upgraded the sound system too. I can't hear the bikes 101hp exhaust coming out the Vance & Hines 2 into 1 High Output Pro Pipe With the sound up. I love Metallica and have been known to pump up the volume. I might be getting old but, I'm not dead yet! It's the BEST Harley-Davidson I've owned!
My only requirement in my quest for a new street glide is that the primary color is not black. That’s a sweet bike
Had a 2009 SG, Really liked it. Sold it and paid the house off 5 years sooner. Yeah it was real temping to go buy me another one....But old bones heal lot slower then younger bones.....
Every Harley without exception, is offered in Vivid Black
Which I honestly think its odd that Orange isn’t also offered universally
I had the Gold Wing Sean, on the back cover of CYCLE magazine December 1973 in MAY 1974 to 188 MPH when the handlebars decided their freedom from my grip. There are TV shows about me too, Sean, they call them SURVIVOR. The SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN. The one left standing THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL.
That orange color is amazing.
I bought a black street glide because i am going to do a new paint job, and i have zero problems doing paint on a black harley hahaha
You are the ultimate salesman. I'm being nice....
I love walking into a biker bar and yelling... who owns the black street glide out there??
So, what am i looking for if i like that bike but i hate bells, hate whistles, hate luggage and love chrome and black paint?
Maybe it's where you mounted the camera but I don't like those bags on the windshield
I had a Sedona Orange 2011 Street Glide. The compensator had to be changed every 6,000 miles. That's right, we had to crack open the engine every year and fix the crappy compensator that Harley "designed". I loved the color and the feel of the bike. I drove mine for two years and only lost $1,500. Not bad as far as that goes.
How do you know when it is bad???
@@gldixon86 Mine started making a big “clunk” on shutdown. It was like someone dropped a bag of wrenches.
Deja vu with this video!
I love my 2017 "BLACK" Street Glide.
Nice information. Almost three days I’m going to look at 2020 SGS vs RGS eagle edition they are the same price but I don’t know why I like SGS !!! What you recommend
I’m 19 years old and I’m a huge fan of Harley Davidson
Only looking at the back of the fairing. The Indian's 7" screen is much better but Harley has the nostalgia.
What’s with the purse on the handle bars
Agree. Additional pin striping takes away from a bike's paint job. And I'm old school.
It's great that this bike is for sale unfortunately they won't get back to you. I have tried to contact him a couple times about a goldwing that they had for sale and they never got back to me ever.
I've never understood a stereo on a bike, i like the sound of the bike and the wind rushing past. If you want to listen to music get a helmet with Bluetooth speakers and hook it up to your phone!
You make a good point! But.... when your bike has two 10” subs, four tweeters and two 6.5’s you may want to pull up to your friends and show out lol
Most guys who buy the streetglide will buy a tourpak so their ridin partner has more room to take more stuff!!
I have tank straps for my 05 Deuce..they work awesome!!
The words of wisdom is the main reason I did subscribe!..You guys rock it!!
My 2020 Street Glide in Baracuda Silver!
My Street Glide is red
That’s not an Ultra! The Ultra has rear speakers on the Tour Pak, Fairing Lowers, along with electronic crude control. That is just an Electra Glide.
Correct
So Ultra is probably 120lbs heavier
Yea, everybody has the black street glide. I went for the 2019 Indian Chieftain Limited in black pearl.
Definitely strap around the lower fork just above the fender, I like to have all my straps pulling forward
I just got a black street glide........I wanted a different color, but could not find one in the price I was looking for....I promise!!!!!
Can you make a video on proper way to strap bike down for transport?
I have a 2018 Street Glide in Silver Fortune for sale. Comes with king tour pak, lower fairings, and other stuff too.
the bike on the left isnt an ultra shawn.... its a FLHTC... electraglide classic
Those construction vehicles are still at that junction, they’ve become a permanent feature. Does anyone live in that crane Haha. Thanks for the video and words of wisdom Sean. Regards, Bob M. South Wales
My cousin has an 06 Street Glide and he swears by that bike,and it’s black,I myself prefer my 03 Heritage Softail Classic 100 year Anniversary bike,great touring bike
With only 10,000 miles... in that time frame... Do you people not ride? What do you do? Wash and stare?
Alot of guys have the money to buy an expensive bike just for casual Sunday rides
FYI..... the bike used for comparison is an Electa Glide Classic. It’s not an Ultra Classic.
I just got my first harley davidson it's a 2022 street glide standard in Midnight Crimson the black is nice but I found it scratches to easily but that's just my opinion from when I road a black suzuki bolavard C50t
Because they are cool, reliable, and you can ride it forever... And still it's worth something.
I think you are wrong always charged more for Streetglide always felt the Less for More bike owned two of them by the way.
I mean I own a street glide special in deep jade pearl and only have seen one other one.
So how are you supposed to see? I can't handle all that fairing in the way
Looks pretty sweet really.
Long story. I live in Japan as a missionary. I plan to take my first vacation in 6 years to visit the states again this year. My goal is to do a road trip from Washington state to Florida for fundraising for the mission field. My dream bike to do it on Is a goldwing with a drivers backrest and camp my way. My yearly income is about $12k. And I would love to know what you recommend for the journey?
Rent a bike from Eagle Rider
My 2011 is black cherry
I think it’s the perfect size. Not to big, not to small.
What in the world was the person using those pouches for? Those are the biggest waste of space and money. Can you see over the windshield? The camera would make it seem like you can't see over the windshield.
...and those pouches alone give Harley owners a bad name.
Pouches come in handy on road trips.. the camera is mounted at his chin. It’s a tad lower.
I have the low profile pouches and windshield on mine have no trouble seeing over them and they are handy as hell for sun glasses and other small items you like having withing a quick grab.
I dream of cool riding weather. 31° and 85% humidity here in Hong Kong!
I too own a black street glide
Wish you could put the stats up in corner in metric ..Sean I’m from Australia 🇦🇺 luv bikes 🏍. Pay CZcams subscription. Luv your channel ...I have to go to my unit converter that bike 🏍 is 373 kilograms converted from odd 888 pounds
Cheers Sean ...cause it’s confusing Sean
We use metric ..we don’t have a great 👍 channel like yours your passion and dealership is out of this world 🌍
No zero to sixty?
10 seconds
10.90 and it's not in 1/4
Here's the answer 0 to 60 eventually.
I found that funny, HD guys are all like Mah Torques! But performance is so shitty compared to any other motorcycle from any other brand......and with less CCs.
Americans, massive engines, almost zero performance
10 point something 0 to 60? I know they're not a sports bike but for a motorcycle to have the performance of a tractor, no wonder HD is in its death throes.
You guys should do a video of a magna 750 vs the vulcan 650, i feel like that would be a close race
prob one of the best Harley's on the roads nowadays. but heck even a gold wing weighs less then this like 780 lbs?. You don't really see them come out of a garage until bike week or the occasional group rides etc. you guys should do a comparison road trip on bikes and beards using the street glide vs Yamaha FJR, gold wing, heck toss in a duke 1290, etc for best road trip bikes for the dollar. what could possibly go wrong lol.
