Bikes, food, guns, and now puppies. THIS CHANEL GETS EVEN BETTER EVERY VIDEO 😂

Note: Yes, the bike feels very planted, stable and solid while at highway speeds. There's PLENTY of power / torque to put the bike where you want it in traffic, to merge, get out of possible bad situations, etc, especially if downshifting a gear or two. Thought I mentioned that or included it in a subtitle in the vid, but my bad if I didn't! Posting here just in case!

Thanks for watching all!

thank you BLOCKHEAD! you're the reason it only took a few days for me to go from not really caring about motorcycles at all, to spending hours researching and drooling over bikes that i'll most likely never own.

Ah those 3 am videos that keep me up for an extra 10-20 minutes when i just about to go to bed! 😂😂😂

[SOUNDWAVE]

Wassup BlockHead and all the fam out here, I just wanted to thank you for keeping me company with all your videos and please keep being yourself, we all love you! 😎

So glad you went to Mexico to show us how it handles at different speeds

Guess it depends on different peoples tolerances. Rode 1000mi round trip last year down interstate on a 883c with a 3/4 helmet, no fairing, had no problem, was quite enjoyable. Ran 75-90 all the way. The way back sucked though. Poured rain first day, made it like a 100mi. Next day we rode thru rain snow and ice. But we made it. Its pretty bad when u gotta drive in the tire tracks of cars .

That’s one thing I’m glad I traded my Dyna for a street glide. I’m on the highway almost all the time. Even my weekend get lost rides. I love how much more time I can ride because I don’t feel beat up. I do want a softail deluxe for a project bike. Make it like a bar hopper or something.

A lot of drag bikes have a small fairing on them. Use your influence to work with someone on a design that’s functional but still badass looking.

I'd call that bike a cocktail bike. Expensive cool looking bike you ride to a cocktail party down the street. (Kind of like a Knight Hawk with gorgeous wood grips being a cocktail gun you wear to show-off at cocktail parties with your other IIA friends.)

I rode one of these for my local dealership to a bike show around 130 miles each way. Wind was a little problem but 90 mph through some nice corners made up for it. I found the riding position put a lot of weight on my wrists, loved getting back on the sport glide at the end of it.

After riding an fz09 for a couple years, I got a 2018 Triumph speedmaster. Just fell in love with the way the bike looked. I owned that bike for literally 4 months and needed to trade it in for my BMW R NINE T. I could not stand the cruiser ergonomics on the highway. I felt like I was literally holding on for dear life just going 65 mph lol. I realized it's not necessarily having a windscreen or not. It's more riding position. I dont have a windscreen on my R NINE T, but I can ride it for hundreds of miles and not feel fatigued. Not knocking on cruisers, but just wanted to put my 2 cents in lol. I love the cruiser look, but needed a more aggressive upright ergonomics

I’ve found that wherever I go on I4 the FXDR is sufficiently comfortable with the wind, if I was going to go out of state, it wouldn’t work.

I actually find myself going too fast trying to balance against the wind. The helmet issues went away as soon as I went to an aggressive sport bike helmet.

[MrCaCaaaaaaaaa]

HDMC makes a quick release compact windshield for the FXDR. That'd be handy if you were power touring with that bike.

[davehowie]

Hokay so, I just bought a Dyna this weekend and let me tell you how much fun all that highway wind is with zero fairing.

[gcyang]

I love mines, on interstate 10 here in California riding up too 100mph the wind does push on your chest good. But love it or leave it. Love the feeling

[retriever]

Right now going to school but still gotta make time for a Blockhead Vid Yay❤️

[nicodemus]

ride the fatbob and the fxdr back to back on the freeway. that flyscreen on the FXDR helps a surprising amount by taking some wind off the chest. your helmet is meant for forward leaning sport bikes, tuck your chin a bit and the helmet lift should stop.

[thetoast]

The 6th gear and power definitely help with some of the issues that arise, but you're right about the speed. When I go above 75 on my 1200, I feel like a bobblehead.

Liked the vid. All I can say is
I KNOW
Same bike, same thoughts, although I will do a few hours on it. Always had naked bikes, and like my FXDR, but must wear backpack because nowhere to install bags. I like your mirrors.
