I traded in my 2017 Street Glide Special for the 2022 Heritage Classic Crimson last week. I've been riding Street Glides for over 10 years. I'm in my 60's now and 145 lbs. I just got tired of backing out a 900 lb. motorcycle out of the garage. I don't tour as much anymore and just love this bike.

Probably the best all round motorcycle ever made.

Old school cool! I love chrome myself. Just purchased a 23 Heritage Classic Atlas Silver w/ chrome package.😎

I bought a 2020 Heritage 114 two years ago and it’s hands down the best motorcycle I’ve ever owned. Well my Honda CB350 was pretty sweet too. It a great a great choice for touring if you just don’t want or need the bigger touring motorcycles that are 100 or 200 lbs heavier and more expensive to boot.

I purchased a 2018 Heritage Softail new. I love the bike. It's quick, nimble and light. If you take off the saddlebags, passenger seat and windshield, you have yourself a Softail Deluxe--two bikes in one. I made quite a few modifications and added quite a few additions to the bike. Long rides or short rides, I am comfortable riding the bike. At 62 years old, I love a bike with a big bike feeling, but a bike that weighs less than the big touring bikes like the Road King. I would highly recommend one.

As a new rider at 59 years old. Ive watched many video reviews, and, i think ive got ot whittled down to the Heritage classic at almost the top of my list of "must consider" biles. A few specific accessories and its a done deal for me to get the Heritage classic (late teens-'24 model)! Doug🏍️⭐⭐⭐😎🐻🧸🤓

Huge fan favorite bike harley has in the lineup definitely a jack of all trades motorcycle.

I just bought a 2022 Heritage and really enjoy it. I had a 2020 Electra Glide and this bike seems to handle so much better.

I bought a 2022 crimson and chrome Heritage and I love it, much more comfortable than the crotch rockets that I used to ride.

I have a 2022 Heritage Classic, and love it. I commute to work on it as much as I can if it's not raining. I don't like the weight, or handling of the touring frame Harleys, not for me. I prefer something lighter, has bags, cruise control, floor boards, ABS standard, and a mono shock in the rear, hence less likely to have speed wobble at high speeds. Everyone has their preferences, and I get that.

I purchased a 2022 Reef Blue/Vivid Black Heritage 114 end of September 2022.

Test road an early 2018 Heritage end of 2017. Really loved the bike but spoked wheels were what was offered at the time and I don’t like spokes on road bikes so did not buy a Heritage when they first came out.

Summer of 2022 found out Harley offered the Heritage with cast wheels along with spoked wheels. Sign me up and thus purchased mine with cast wheels.

As @Andrew Green has pointed out a “Small man’s bike unfortunately”. (Middle aged, 6 foot, 180lbs, 34” inseam, also own 2016 Kawasaki Versys 1000 [which at my height is hard to climb up and mount] and 2018 Kymco Spade 150 that is similar to a Grom so very easy to get on.

Heritage is 730 lbs wet and is so easy to throw around in corners. Unfortunately cannot lean as much into corners as the Versys 1000 can otherwise I grind up parts.

I’m loving me some 2022 Harley Heritage.

You should check cholo heritage harleys before saying this bike is trying to be cool. This bike is the coolest bike on planet.

[HogLife]

Heritage Softail Classic is in my opinion is the best line of Harleys, I have the 03 100 year Anniversary edition and It’s a great touring Bike, looking forward to Myrtle Beach Bike Week, May12-22 I believe, I ride down the from Northern Ohio, and the trip on the Heritage was amazing

[GlidingOnTwos]

Not the one for me either! But someone out there will love it.

[wunder]

That rain sock is hurting performance. Don’t use it unless needed, it really restricts the flow

[RobertoBren]

The Heritage Clasic is a really nice looking and ridding bike...the only improvement I'd suggest is going to the Indian Suoer Cheif Limited. Lol. But that's a fact.

[jhackett]

Beginner touring. Today if its not an ultra classic, a 1250 bmw adventure or an african twin it gets the beginner label.
Heaven forbid someone likes a lighter bike. Me and all my friends have been beginners for 50 years I guess.

[kenta]

Sorry but I think you may have been a little too negative. So many “not for me’s”.

[bobsilver]

Harley, support drags, queers, and drink Butt Light. Real men ride other bikes!

[andrewkitchenuk]

Small man's bike unfortunately. 😢
