Not ready to give up my 2010 Road King just yet. Thanks Doc.

Im definitely eyeing the softail heritage with the 114.

[Deaddriftbum]

You forget to mention the price and labor for all the Harley parts hahaha

[haroldwiser]

They're all beautiful, and fast!
Thanks doc.

The only issue I have with the Heritage is the tube tires. As you pointed out, that one customer changed them out for cast wheels and very likely tubeless tires which is an expensive but great idea. Too bad Harley can't come up with SPOKED tubeless tires after all these years. Other manufacturers have had them for years. I like the spokes,

So true, excellent video. I'm making my 2019 Harley-Davidson Heritage Classic FLHCS 114 my own. I blacked out almost everything. I will continue with the cosmetic on few more parts. I also bought performance upgrades for the M8 to complement its Stage IV 131ci Kit not installed yet. Items you mentioned on your videos I also bought.Thanks for your excellent videos.

Love to know, in detail, how they got that much power from the 114.

The best way to own a Harley for me? Buy clean pre-owned with little to no modifications, and just go nuts. Ride it until inspiration comes around for an all out new idea. Sell it or keep it. Get another. best tinker toy. Harley Davidson.

Doc....you got the right idea, My 2018 Road King is great!....but in a few years I see myself getting a new Heritage! Thanks for your great content...Always!

[rossjohnson]

I really like this I have been looking for other ways to customize a heritage other than the vicla style

[RamdyEvans]

Doc sounds like an x radio dj.... good speech and enunciation, who agrees?

Just traded my 2014 Fat Bob, which I just completed a bunch of up grades on, for the new 2021 Heritage Classic114. And I'm not disappoint at all. Can't wait to start upgrading this baby.

Had a sporty, road king, 2 ultras, and a brand new 16 limited. Went big and power and doo dads and HATED it. Went back to a carbed 2000 heritage softail...added 16" apes and loud pipes for safety....and it's my all time favorite bike now. Can ride for days and not get tired with my lighter bike and can pop off the windshield and bags for a cruise in town too. Wish I still had an evo motor like I had in the 80's with my first HD, but I'm done. My bike makes me happy and gets a ton of smiles per mile.

I know new is what makes the bucks... but a classic Harley with a carb is a sound like none other.

[ctscantechnologist]

Id love to customize my Road King, but I fear of voiding the warranty. So I will just customize my bank account.

[miketodd]

Great Video Doc!!! I love seeing all the differ visions people have for their bikes. I look forward to seeing these sleds on the street!!!

[FranBunnyFFXII]

140 Horsies out of that. JEEZ that's a muscle cruiser.

[joecolbert]

Can you do a video on the oil fluid transfer problem with the m8 motor

[percentmick]

2019 street glide coming to a garage near me soon.... like this Saturday. Friggin pumped.
